The GOAT List
1. ToeDragons 2285 TPE (most TPE in league history) 2. Alonzo Garbanzo's 1738 blocks (438 more then 2nd place) 3. Irelands 3 straight IIHF gold medals (S42-Present) 4. Danny Foster's 7 Turd Fergeson Awards 5. Calgary making the playoffs in 20 of 21 seasons 6. Thadeus Prince has a 29-4-1 lifetime SHL record in net 7. Kelowna winning 3 straight 4 star cup championships (S40-43) 8. Wasty's 31 seasons as the GM of the Panthers Explanation: 2285 TPE is true dedication to the league, through and through. Putting your body on the line over 1700 times is a mark of a true team player. Creating a home-grown team of talent is challenging but rewarding. Not as impressive as the individual talents above but the greatest team accomplishment here. 7 year-end position awards demonstrates true mastery of a role on the ice, but statistically doesn't touch ToeDragons or Alonzo Garbanzo. Making the playoffs so many times in a row is impressive, but over half the teams in SHL make it in. Being at least average isn't an accomplishment, it's an expectation. Wins records are great--I would know--but they ultimately are team accomplishments before player accomplishments. Kelowna's threepeat will forever be tainted by the suspension of their GM for failing to report a budget, even if that didn't significantly impact their accomplishment. GMing 31 seasons is dedication, but doesn't say anything about results. |
