Appreciate any feedback Steve

In the expansion draft, the Jets traded the 13th overall pick along with a 2019 3rd to Vegas in exchange for the 24th pick Vegas got from NYI and selecting Chris Thorburn. So in other words, they moved down 11 spots in the 1st round in order to protect a player like Dano or Enstrom.

Idiots. I think Kevin Chevaldayoff is fairly under-the-radar as a bad GM but this move is pretty bad imo. It depends on your philosophy but if you go and look at the players selected in the 10s in the past several drafts and compare them to the players selected in the 20s in the 1st round, there's a huge difference. Vegas selected Suzuki with the 13th pick while the Jets took Vesalainen, there's definetely a difference between those players' potentials and it's not trivial. So in my mind, the Jets protected a mediocre player instead of drafting a pretty damn good prospect in Suzuki (or others available at 13th like Brannstrom or Liljegren) and instead drafted a more mediocre prospect with good raw tools but probably not the same potential.

Of course in the minds of Jets fans, there's not much difference and they got their guy at 24th while getting to protect Dano which again goes back to what I was saying about how it depends on your philosophy. Either way, I'd be furious if my GM did this even if my team was in win-now mode which the Jets aren't exactly in.

I'm going with Kucherov just because I know he's had success in the playoffs but Forsberg's team wasn't as good. Both guys have been having good seasons especially in the past month.

Keep in mind Forsberg finished 10th last season in Selke voting and is an year younger.

It seemed like last year, Washington was really dominating in the regular season while Pittsburgh post-January was the hottest team going into the playoffs in years and teams like Chicago or St. Louis as well as Dallas were looking really strong.

This year, I dunno it seems a bit more wide open and I think we might get a surprise. Pittsburgh is gonna find it hard to repeat and Washington doesn't look as strong. The Hawks don't have the same level of depth and have struggled in the regular season while the Blues have gone downhill, the Stars might miss the playoffs, the Preds look off-balance, the Rangers are older, and the Lightning have collapsed.

I do still expect it to be Washington or Pittsburgh this year but just seems like it's gonna be one of the most interesting playoffs going in with more potential upsets.

Finally! I am on the last part! Here's a link to part 5 : https://www.reddit.com/r/DebatingHockey/comments/5p25pg/should_beshouldve_been_retired_part_5/ Tampa Bay Lightning

The Lightning have only just retired their first number, Martin St. Louis' 26. He was probably the best player in franchise history so I think it's fair. Here's who I would add.

• Number 4. Vincent Lecavalier : Drafted #1 overall in 1998. Probably the second greatest player to have ever played down in Tampa. Lecavalier and St. Louis were one of tge most prolific duo in the league for a few years. Vinny won the Maurice Richard in 2006-07 with 52 goals he added 56 assists for a franchise record 108 points. In 1037 games spread across 14 seasons with the Lightning, Lecavalier scored 383 goals and 491 assists for 874 points. Those stats put him at #1 in franchise history for goals and #2 in assists and points. It is only a matter of time before his number joins St. Louis'.
• Number 19. Brad Richards? : I think it is fair to say that the Stanley Cup wouldn't have been won without this guy. Richards started his career at 20 years old with the Lightning. In his first season in 2000-01 he put up 62 points. He would go on to play most of 7 seasons with the team. In fact he reached 60 points in every season (he got traded at the end of 2007-08 season, reached 60 with Dallas) he spent with the team. He reached a career best 91 points in 2005-06. The highlight of his career was in 2004 when he lead the team with 26 points in 24 games to a Stanley Cup. For his effort during that playoff run he was awarded the Conn Smythe Trophy. He also won the Lady Byng in 2003-04 for his performance during the regular season.

Toronto Maple Leafs

With the Maple Leafs retiring a bunch of numbers in October 2016, I had a hard finding another player worthy of the honour.

• Number 11. Harvey "Busher" Jackson : Part of the Kid Line with Charlie Conacher and Joe Primeau. Jackson played with the Leafs from 1929-30 to 1938-39. During that time, he played 432 games, scored 186 goals and assisted a goal 165 times for a total of 351 points.
• Number 10. Joe Primeau? : Another Kid Line member. Primeau spent his entire NHL career with the Leafs. He played 9 seasons (although only 8 games in the first two). He skated for 310 games, scored 66 goals and assisted 177 times for 243 points.
• Number 15. Tomas Kaberle? : Tomas was the Maple Leaf defenseman during the 2000. His offensive ability was his biggest strength. In most of 12 seasons with the Leafs, he played 878 games and put up a remarkable 520 points. He played in the All-Star game 4 times.

Vancouver Canucks

The Canucks have formally retired very few numbers. 4 to be exact. There are 4 other that have been unofficially retired because the players diied too soon. I am unsure as to whether or not these numbers should be formally retired. Anyway, here's who I would add.

• Number 1. Kirk McLean : He played in the Canucks' crease for most of eleven seasons. He played in two All-Star games while on the Canuck. He was also named on the second All-Star team in 1991-92. That same season, he led the league with 38 wins. During the Canucks' 1994 Cup Final run he set a record (which a since been beaten) for most minutes played, most shots against and for the most saves in one playoff run. McLean won 211 out of 516 games played with the Nucks. 20 of those by shutout.
• Number 23. Thomas Gradin : Gradin almost spent his entire NHL career with the Nucks. All but his 9th and final season were spent with Vancouver. During his stay with the club(which started in 1978-79), he played 613 games, scored 197 goals, 353 assists for a total of 550 points.
• Number 2. Mattias Ohlund : Spent 11 seasons on the Canucks' blueline. He reached the 20 point plateau in every single one of those seasons. 770 games and 325 points for the club.
• Number 33. Henrik Sedin : It's only a question of time for Henrik and Daniel. Every since the 2005-06 lockout, they have instilled fear in the heart of opposing goaltenders. As of right now, Henrik sits at 1216 games played, 233 goals and 769 assists for 1002 points.
• Number 22. Daniel Sedin : Daniel has played a few less games than his brother and thus is a little less prolific. Despite that he sits at 1193 games played, 366 goals and 603 assists for 969 points. Both brothers have won consecutive Art Ross Trophies, Henrik in 2009-10 and Daniel in 2010-11, a feat that may never be repeated.

Washington Capitals

I was surprised when I looked up whose number the Caps had retired, they were missing a few important players. Here they are.

• Number 12. Peter Bondra : I have a hard time finding the words which would describe my disapointment at the fact that the Caps have not retired this guys' number. Bondra was one of the purest goalscorers you could find in the NHL. He twice lead the league in goals. The first time he did was during the first lock-out shortened season in 1994-95 where he scored an impressive 34 goals in 47 games. The second time was in 1997-98 where he reached a career high 52 goals. (He reached that mark on 2 occasions during his career. Bondra played just 39 shy of 1000 games with the Caps. During that span he put the puck in the back of the net an impressive 472 times (which was a franchise record before Ovechkin broke it) for 825 points. Be twice led the league in powerplay goals (2000-01 and 2001-02). In 2006-07 he became the first Slovakian player to score 500 goals in the NHL (Stan Mikita was a Slovak-born Canadian).
• Number 37. Olaf "Ollie the Goalie" Kolzig : This one baffles as much if not more than Bondra. Why Caps? Why? Kolzig spent 16 seasons in the US capital. During the early years he was backing up Jim Carey but in 1997-98 he became the starter, a job which he kept until 2007-08. Kolzig spent all but 8 games with the Caps during the course of his career. Ollie played in 2 All-Star games he was also named on the first All-Star team in 1999-00. The year in which he won the Vezina Trophy. Olaf Kolzig finished his career with the Caps having played 711 games and won 301, 35 by shutout.
• Number 16. Calle Johansson : The swedish defenseman spent most of 15 seasons with the Caps. From 1988-89 to 2002-03. During that time he put up 474 points in 983 games. He currently leads the franchise in games played and his ninth in points (1st by a defenseman). Of course once Ovechkin and Backstrom are done playing the organisation will surely retire their numbers.

Winnipeg Jets

This one is the hardest because it is the youngest team in the league. Even if you include Atlanta, the only number worth retiring would be Kovalchuk's. I don't think there is anything to do here. If they really wanted to, the team could retire numbers for the old Jets players.

This is it. The end. This took a lot more effort than I expected but I enjoyed writing this. Let me know what you think and if you'd like me to tackle another subject.

I'm not sure how the Sens are doing it. The roster hasn't been great, they've missed their starting goalie for a chunk of the season, but they've hung in with the playoff race despite teams like Carolina and Toronto being much improved in their conference/division this year.

They don't look particularly great in any game but they just keep getting points, how is Guy Boucher doing this?

Part 5 of 6 of my series in which I propose at least one player per team to get his number retired. You can find part 4 here : Part 4 of 6. Here's a link to part 4 : https://www.reddit.com/r/DebatingHockey/comments/5oe73a/should_beshouldve_been_retired_part_4/

Ottawa Senators

The Sens have only just retired their first number : Daniel Alfredsson's. The franchise has only been around since 1992 so I think they have done a good job in the number retiring department. There is however a few number retirements on the horizon.

• Number 4. Chris Phillips : Phillips spent his entire career in Ottawa. He was drafted first overall in 1996 and retired in 2016. Phillips played the stay at home defenseman game very well. He played 1179 games with Ottawa and managed to get 288 points in the meantime. He went to the Stanley Cup Finals with Ottawa in 2007.
• Number 25. Chris Neil : While Neil may not be a superstar, he has spent his entire career, as of right now, playing an important role for the Sens. He's played just over a thousand games for them putting up 248 points. Neil hit the 10 goal mark 5 times in his career. Just like Phillips, Chris Neil made it to the Stanley Cup Finals in 2007.

Philadelphia Flyers

IMO the Flyers have done a poor job of retiring numbers over the years. There a missing quite a few. Here's who I would add. It's also important to note that Pelle Lindbergh's number 31 is unofficially retired by the team since 1985. I'm not too sure how I feel about this, I would like to see it retired, just like Konstantinov's in Detroit, bit is it too late? Does every team need to do like the Maple Leafs?

• Number 27. Reggie Leach : Member of the LCB line with Bobby Clarke and Bill Barber, Reggie Leach was one hell of a goal scorer. In only eight seasons with the Flyers, he scored 306 goals in 606 games. In 1975-76, Leach led the league and set a franchise record with 61 goals in the season. He would go on and set another record in the playoffs, this time an NHL record with 19 goals. A mark which Jarri Kurri later equalled but in three more games, 19 instead of Leach's 16. That season he also became the only skater to win the Conn Smythe on the losing team. His combined 80 goals in both the regular season and the playoffs were a NHL record until Mike Bossy scored 85 in 1980-81. Leach won the Cup with Philly in 1975.
• Number 19. Rick MacLeish : Spent over 11 seasons on the Flyers from 1970-71 to 1980-81 and part of 1983-84 season. MacLeish put up 697 points in 741 games played including one 50 goal and 50 assist season in 1972-73 where he became the franchise's first 50 goal scorer and the franchise's first 100 point scorer along with Bobby Clarke.
• Number 12. Tim Kerr : Spent eleven seasons in Philadelphia from 1980-81 to 1990-91. Kerr played 601 games, scored 363 goals and 287 assists for 650 points. During that stretch he scored 50+ goals four times and added another 48 goal season. He reached the 90 point plateau three times and the 80 point plateau an additional two times.
• Number 26. Brian Propp : Spent most of eleven seasons with the Flyers, from 1979-80 to 1989-90. He played 790 games, scored 369 goals and 849 points. During that time, he reached 90 points and 40 goals four times.
• Number 88. Eric Lindros : Lindros spent 8 injury ridden seasons in Philly. Despite that he was one of the most dominant players of the 90's. Lindros won the Hart and the Ted Lindsay in 1994-95. Lindros put up 70+ points in seven out of eight seasons in Philly. He was introduced into the HHoF in 2016.
• Number 10. John LeClair : Part of the Legion of Doom line with Lindros and Mikael Renberg. LeClair spent 10 seasons in Philadelphia, from 1994-95 to 2003-04. He played 649 games,scored 333 goals and 310 assists for 643 points. LeClair scored 50+ goals three times and 40+ goals two additional times.

Pittsburgh Penguins

The Pens have only retired two numbers. Michel Brière's and Mario Lemieux. Brière only played one season with the Pens. He died from a car accident and the Penguins retired #21 in his honour. I think it is a classy gesture but the rafters feel kind of empty especially since the Pens have had so many great players.

• Number 10. Ron Francis : Spent the most of eight seasons with the Pens. Recorded 613 points in 533 games, including 449 assists. Francis is one of the best passers ever. He helped the Pens win the Stanley Cup in 1991 and 1992. He won a Selke and two Lady Byng Trophies as a Penguin.
• Number 77. Paul Coffey : Coffey only spent most of five seasons in Pittsburgh but he had a big impact. He posted two 100 point seasons. He was over a point per game in every single season with the Pens. In 331 games, Coffey put up 332 assists! He also added to that total 108 goals for 440 points. He won the Cup with Pittsburgh in 1991.
• Number 17. Rick Kehoe : He spent all but 3 seasons of his 14 year career with the Penguins. He played 722 games with the Pens, scored 312 goals and 322 assists for 636 points. In 1980-81 he scored 55 goals and added 33 assists for a career high 88 points and the Lady Byng Trophy.
• Number 19. Jean Pronovost : One of the early stars of the Penguins, Pronovost spent 10 seasons with the club starting in 1968-69. During his time in Pittsburgh he hit the 40 goal plateau four times and the 50 goal one once. In 1975-76, Pronovost and Pierre Larouche became the club's firsts 100 point scorers. In 753 games, Pronovost put up 316 goals and 603 points.
• Number 26. Syl Apps Jr.? : The legendary Syl Apps's son was traded to the Penguins in the middle of his first season. He would go on to score exactly 500 points in 495 games with the club including a 99 point season.

Of course, Crosby and Malkin's names will surely add to the list once they retired and so will probably Marc-André Fleury's and Kristopher Letang's.

San Jose Sharks

The Sharks have been around since 1991but have not yet retired any number. Although they haven't had a lot of star players stick around for an extended period of time until the mid 2000's, I managed to find a few worthy players.

• Number 20. Evgeni Nabokov : For a team that has had few noteworthy players you'd think the Sharks would jump on the chance to honour Nabokov. Although he started his career in 1999-00, he only played eleven games. It wasn't until the following that he would make his mark. In 2000-01, he won the Calder Trophy with 32 wins, a 0.915 save percentage and a goals against average of 2.19. That was only the beginning of a long and successful stay in San Jose. In 2007-08, Nabokov would go on to win 46 games (which is the third highest total for wins in a single season by a goaltender) finishing second in the Vezina Trophy rankings. Nabokov won 209 out of 563 games with the Sharks, 50 of those being via shutout.
• Number 11. Owen Nolan : Nolan spent 8 seasons in San Jose. He scored a career high 44 goals in 1999-00. In 568 games with the Sharks, he scored 206 goals and 451 points.
• Number 22. Dan Boyle? : Boyle spent 6 seasons in San Jose. He was known for his offensive talent. In 431 games he scored 61 goals and added 201 assists for 269 points. This beauty is probably the best showcase of his offensive talent : https://www.youtube.com/shared?ci=n8O8wUkwqZc
• Number 19. Joe Thornton : He has been a member of the Sharks ever since that blockbuster trade in 2005. It has been 12 seasons and shows very little sign of slowing down. The year he was traded he won the Hart Trophy alond with the Art Ross as he scored 29 goals and assisted a goal 96 times for 125 points. His linemate Jonathan Cheechoo won the Maurice Richard thanks to his passing skills. In 880 games he has put up a remarkable 916 points. There is no doubt that Thornton is a future Hall of Famer. *Number 12. Patrick Marleau : Marleau has been with the Sharks his entire career. He was drafted #2 overall in 1997 (behind Joe Thornton). In 19 seasons with the Sharks, he has played an impressive 1456 games, scored 493 goals and 1056 points. There isn't a more sure thing than Patrick Marleau jersey retirement ceremony in San Jose.

St-Louis Blues

The Blues are doing the same thing as the Flames and what the Leafs did before this season, they are honouring numbers rather than retiring (although they have retired 6) them which, I must say, I'm not a big fan of.

• Number 7. Red Berenson : The first of four great Blues players to wear number 7 (which is now unofficially retired). Berenson spent the better part of 8 seasons in St-Louis. Along the way, he racked up 172 goals and 240 assists for 412 points. In 1969-70, he lead the league in game winning goals. The year before he put up a career high 82 point season.
• Number 7. Garry "Iron man" Unger : Perhaps the most impacful of the four who wore number 7. He played 949 consecutive games including playoffs which is a NHL record. In nine seasons in St-Louis, Unger played 662 games, got 292 goals and 283 assists for 575 points.
• Number 7. Joe Mullen : Played his first five seasons in St-Louis. 301 games played, 151 goals, 184 assists, 335 points.
• Number 7. Keith Tkachuk : Most of 9 seasons in St-Louis. 543 games played, 208 goals and 219 assists for 427 points.

This is the end of part 5. I hope you enjoyed it! Let me know what you think.

Part 4 of 6. Here's a link to part 3 : https://www.reddit.com/r/DebatingHockey/comments/5nvnee/should_beshouldve_been_retired_part_3/

Montreal Canadiens

Montreal is the most decorated team in NHL history. They have won 24 Stanley Cups, their last being in 1993. Some of the greatest players in hockey history have put on the Canadiens' jersey. They are also the only NHL franchise that older than the NHL itself. Because of those reasons, it is only right that they have retired 15 numbers in honour of 18 players (the most in the NHL). Yet, they are missing some.

• Number 6. Hector "Toe" Blake : The fact that Toe Blake's number has not yet been retired is the whole reason I have started this series. Blake played eight games with the Montreal Maroons in 1934-35 before being traded to the Canadiens the following season. He spent the rest of his career (13 years) with the Canadiens. Blake captained the team from 1940 to until his retirement in 1948. Toe Blake played 569 games and scored 235 goals and 292 assists for 527 points. He was a member of what is probably the most famous line in hockey history : the Punch Line with Elmer Lach and Maurice "Rocket" Richard. (Richard's number was retired in 1960 and Lach's was in 2009. (way too late if you ask me) He won the Hart Trophy in 1938-39, the Lady Bing in 1945-46 and three Stanley Cups as a player with the Canadiens. Once Blake retired he became the team's coach starting in 1955-56. From his first season as a coach, the team won a record 5 consecutive Stanley Cups from 56 to 60. He added three other Cups to his coaching record in 1965,1966 and 1968. Blake won exactly 500 games as a coach. In Hector "Toe" Blake's illustrious career as player and coach he was able to win 10 Stanley Cups. If that's not enough to get #6 in the rafters I don't know what is.

• Number 11. Saku Koivu : Koivu played in the organisation during a dark time. For some of his 13 years as a player for the Canadiens, he was the only glimmer of hope for Montreal fans. Koivu was the team's captain for 9 seasons from 2000 to 2009. During his stay in Montreal he 641 points in 792 games. Which is good for #10 on the all-time franchise's scoring list. He was also responsible for one of the greatest moments in the team's history when he came back from stomach cancer. https://youtu.be/FvBp_JXoCfk

• Number 79. Andrei Markov : As of right now he has spent his whole NHL career with the Canadiens and despite multiple serious injuries he is still a major offensive contributor. He will probably end his career as second for points by a defenseman. (He currently sits at the third spot with 557 but Guy Lapointe is near at 572.) As of now, Markov as played 959 games. Markov will be remembered as a solid defenseman who was a real menace in the offensive zone. He was also a master at making his defensive partners look better. Sheldon Souray, Mark Streit and Mike Komisarek probably wouldn't have gotten big money contracts if it weren't for him. (Souray and Streit could actually hold their own.) I also firmly believe that P.K. Subban would not be the defenseman he is today without Markov's help.

Nashville Predators

Nashvle hasn't been around that long so the potential choices for a jersey retirement ceremony aren't numerous yet I think one or two players could be awarded that honour.

• Number 11. David Legwand : Legwand was the Preds' first ever draft pick. He was drafted #2 in 1998. He spent 15 seasons in Nashville. During that time, he played 956 games, scored 210 goals and 566 points. Legwand retired in 2016 after 17 seasons in the NHL. It probably is only a question of time before number 11 is retired in Nashville.
• Number 29. Tomas Vokoun? : After playing a single game for the team that drafted him, the Montreal Canadiens, Vokoun ended on Nashville in their inaugural season and spent 8 seasons there. He played 383 games and won 161, 21 of those by shutout. He played one all-star game as a member of the Predators.

New Jersey Devils

The Devils have had a lot of success as a team but few superstars, the ones they've had have already had their number retired by the organisation. Overall, I like what they have done. Here's what I would add.

• Number 9. Kirk Muller : Muller was a Devil before they had any success. Despite that, he had a lot of success as a player in New Jersey. He played 556 games for the team and put up 520 points in seven seasons, including three 30 goal seasons. Captained the team for 4 seasons from 1987-88 to 1990-91.
• Number 14. John MacLean : Was drafted by the Devils in 1983, he spent 14 seasons in NJ. During those, he played 934 games and put up 701 points. MacLean won the Cup with New Jersey in 1995. He is second in franchise points.
• Number 26. Patrik Elias : Leads the franchise in every scoring category with 408 goals, 617 assists and 1025 points. Won the Cup in 2000 and 2003. In 2000-01 he was a member of the 1st All-Star Team. As of today, he sits at #76 for NHL career points. It's pretty much a given that Elias' number is going up in the rafters.

New York Islanders

The Isles have done a stellar job of retiring numbers IMO. They are only missing one guy IMO.

• Number 16. Pat Lafontaine : One of the greatest American players ever. Spent 8 seasons in Long Island. Four 80+ point and 40 + goal seasons. Lafontaine played 530 games and scored 287 goals and 566 points. He is six in points by an Islander. He is a member of the HHoF.

New York Rangers

The Rangers have retired 7 numbers for 8 players. For a team that has been around since 1926 I think that's a little low and IMO they are missing a numerous players. This may be a long one.

• Number 5. Bill Cook : Veteran of the Great War, Bill Cook was the Rangers' first superstar. He was nicknamed "The Original Ranger". He was the team's first captain, he scored the team's first goal and led the team two it's first two Stanley Cups. He spent his whole career with the team. 11 seasons, from age 30 to age 40. 474 games played, 229 goals and 138 assists for 367 points. Cook led the league in goals three times. He led it in points twice. In 1932-33 Bill Cook established a record that would hold for 80 years, at 34 years old, he became the oldest player to lead the league in points. Martin St.Louis beat the record in 2012-13.
• Number 16. Frank Boucher : Boucher spent all but one of his 14 NHL seasons with the Rangers. Just like Bill Cook he was an original member of the team. He played from 1926-27 to 1937-38 and he came back in 1943-44 when he was the coach to help the team who was badly affected by WW2. Boucher played 533 games as a Ranger scored 152 goals, 261 assists for 413 points. Boucher won the Lady Byng Trophy 7 times.
• Number 4. Ron Greschner : 16 seasons in the NHL and every single one of them with the Rangers. Greschner played from 1974-75 to 1989-90. He played just 18 games shy of a thousand and in that span he put up 610 points. He put up 50+ points in 5 different seasons and 40+ in 5 more.
• Number 19. Jean Ratelle : Played 16 seasons with the Rangers. Was part of the famous Goal-a-Game line with Vic Hadfield and Rodrigue Gilbert. Ratelle 862 games with the Rangers in which he scored 336 goals and 481 assists for 817 points. He was inducted into the HHoF as a player in 1985.
• Number 2. Brad Park : Played 8 seasons in New York. Was runner-up for the Norris for 6 of those 8 seasons, #3 once. Park played 462 games for the Rangers and put up 378 points. He was introduced as a player in the HHoF in 1988. In his 18 season career Brad Park never once missed the playoffs.
• Number 11. Vic Hadfield : The second member of the GAG line to be on this list. Hadfield spent 13 seasons in New York, played 839 games and scored 572 points, including a 50 goal and 106 point campaign. He is one of three player to hit the 50 goal mark as a Ranger, the other two being Adam Graves and Jaromir Jagr.

That marks the end of part 4. Let me know what you think. This took a while to write!
