Former NHL tough guy John Scott had an interesting premise yesterday on twitter.
Got us thinking how this would apply for the Penguins. And while, to me, it doesn’t seem like so long ago for 2000-2010, it’s an interesting end-of-year and end-of-decade type of look back through the years.
Anyways, here’s my list and while I do think some “kids” might have heard these names or been familiar with these players, the emphasis goes back to just how good these players were. A guy like Ian Moran might have been serviceable on the first pair for all those years instead of playing down the lineup where maybe he belonged, but he wouldn’t apply for the other end of the qualification.
