So, being that this the first blog I have ever written on here, I wanted to stay somewhat neutral with my topic. That means no Sundin or McCabe talk, no Radulov and CHL talk, no trade rumors or speculations. Just something fun.
What I want to know is if you were to make a team, using one player from every team, who would you pick? Now let me add the restrictions. You must have:
- 3 Goalies
- 8 defensemen
-15 forwards
- 4 reserves (any position)
I really haven't made my own team, I ran into problems when deciding who to select between Lidstrom, Datsyuk and Zetterberg or Phaneuf and Iginla. So let me know...remember, only one player from each team and each team must be used.
Have Fun and Cheers!

As for picking malkin over crosby. I think crosby is a great player, I just didn't want a team full of cry-babies. I think the hardest team to pick from was the Islanders. Not the great team in terms of star players and since im from edmonton there was no way i was picking comrie. let me know what you think. Awesome blog too, lots of fun to do.

i think no ovechkin on your team is a mistake

Marcellman and Slimryan, I can't beleive you guys would pick Malone over Lecalvier, I could see you picking st.louis, but not malone. As for you reasoning Slim, I agree, crybabies have no place, which is why I like you picking Plekanec instead of Kovalev. I think by having only one player to choose from per team, you run into some hard decisions...Even after looking at some of your Im unsure who to choose

Did not realize that my post would go that way. Also Bartl3y, you say no respect for Corsby yet you put Malkin on your team and not Crosby. Maybe thats saying a alot more than you think it is.

Bart, I guess you didn't read the part where it said you are only allowed to have 1 player per team.
