If you could play for any NHL team (other than your own), which would you choose?
1) Toronto Maple Leafs (34) 14.4%
WHAT THE...?? How is Toronto the leading answer to that question?
Interesting article though |

Nothing really too out of the norm.
What really surprised me was they number of players who said Edmonton as the team the would least like to get traded to.
That really sucks. I think Edmonton gets a bad rap. 28 players say the would not like to come here while Calgary had 7. It is virtually the same place. Calgary is closer to the mountains. That is really the only difference.
And what's wrong with Buffalo??
I was also surprised by the number of players who said they liked the delay of game penalty for clearing the puck over the boards. What, did they survey all forwards???

Yeah seriously. I was wondering that too.
You'll also notice that only 0.5% of the players think Hasek is overrated, and if anyone would know that for sure it would be the players. So everyone here who's always saying he's overrated should rethink that claim. |

Beans, you can take consolation in the fact that you have the best ice.  |

| I would really love to see the names attached to some of these answers. Like the guys who said "girls" or "Cam Janssen" as the worst part of the job or "media" as the best part of the job. Also the hatred for Sean Avery is pretty funny. More than half of NHL players! |

Who voted John Madden as most overrated?
Dan Fritsche as PLayer to build a team around?
Nobody wants to go to Edmonton, but they have the best ice...
Worst thing about your job: Protein shakes...what the?

Few surprises, but mostly as expected.
Interesting article, thanks Willus! |

Somehow...the City of Chapions (Deadmonton...even though I'm goin' there to see the Police in June) has become the new Winnipeg...or if you're Eric Lindros...Quebec City. Don't know why anyone would wanna go to Nashville...except maybe for 1 cent draft night. I mean who really wants to wear the puce (puke) coloured jerseys???

| I'm not suprised at all that players don't want to play in Edmonton. The hockey may be good but the city sucks. |

I'm especially hoping the Crosby haters have read this link.
I guess the peers of Crosby think he's not overated as 56% voted him best player and Thorton got only 11% which is a landslide! The haters we're saying what about him being overated? Like I said they have ZERO credibility, and not a leg to stand on. Also, Crosby was picked at 76% as the best pick for foundation of a new franchise. Hello OV!......has anybody seen OV? LOL!
Also, I much enjoyed Bryan McCabe selected as the 2nd most overated player in the NHL by his own peers. Some guy posting here has been saying this for years....wonder who that could be?(sarcasm off)
IHC are you paying attention?
What do guys that play in the NHL know anyways?(sarcasm off)
