 Original Everett Silvertips Hockey Fan Forum
But keep in mind that remaining loyal to specific players has been difficult for years, as players follow dollar signs to new cities and trades make the term franchise player comically antiquated.
So a majority of these NHL fans would be willing to rip the Roenick off their authentic jerseys and root for whoever is on the home team.

 Greatest NHL Players - Hockey Fans
There are always the arguments of players size, the size of the rinks, equipment, changes in rules, watered down talent due to the number of teams, how the games are officiated, and the flavour of the day when it comes to coaching styles and philosophies.
The NHL has been lucky to have had some of the most explosive and gifted atheletes in all of sport.
Many may belong in the same grouping as the "All-time greats", but they surely had very large impacts on their respective teams and in many cases, the game of hockey as a whole.
