                       I think this will possibly help find the right balance we are looking for... It is easy, not as exciting as top 50 since 1967, but a lot more accurate than top 20 since '93, and this way ANYONE, I mean ANYONE can join. 
  By no means am I trying to compete with the success of the other two games... I am looking to offer an alternative that can go hand in hand. 
  I will continue to participate in the other game, Top 20 since 1993 by the way. Now, I want this to be extremely organized; therefore, I am making a seperate topic for signing up / comments. Please ONLY post here to nominate or second or vote.
  Please do NOT tell other members we are waiting for them. And debate in the other topic. 
  I expect to get a pretty good turn out... don't disapoint me boys! 
  ThorntonisTHEMAN, Datsyuk1, NashPreds, PainTrain, HabbsBiggestFan, PuckNuts, GoStarsGo, Semin1, PensFan, LeafsRockthePlanet, LeafsFan_101 -- I am expecting you! 
  Of course, our ''vets'' i.e. Willus, Beans, Antroman, Andyhack, Irvine, Slozo...  you are all invited, I just have a feeling, the mods especially, might not want to. But if you want to, be my guest!

  A MAXIMUM OF EIGHT VOTERS ARE ALLOWED PER ROUND IN ORDER TO GET THIS ROLLING BEFORE THE TRAFFIC AROUND HERE STARTS TO SLOW DOWN. GET YOUR VOTES IN WHEN THE TIME COMES QUICKLY 
  EDIT:  This is important! The comittee is starting to become quite confusing as a result of guys coming and going. I just got a request from IrishDrunkGuy and have thought about it. ANYONE wishing to participate simply give in your vote / seconds. HOWEVER, if the vote or second is ridiculous, we will hold a members' vote, and reserve the right to permanently suspend anyone from the comittee. As well, if you have not proven yourself on the site, I will not let you join. Examples include Nash14, Mark Stein and others.

                       Round Three Nominations Begin Now
  He may not go early, but if anything, it will be because of his position, not his worth: 
  Ladies and germs, I nominate Dion Phaneuf. Many would put in Crosby or Lecavalier, but guys, consistency is key, in three years essentialy, a ton of guys can be 'the best' - one bad year a.k.a. Lecavalier 05-06, Crosby 07-08, and I do not think you deserve top 3, no matter what the reason you missed was.
  See my rationale and comment over here:
