A. Let us know the 4 members who you believe should be on the SHL's Mount Rushmore! and in 150 words or more explain why you chose them.

Coming in season 20 I have a bit of a different perspective than alot of members. I've seen the league grow tremendously with the infusion of massive reddit drafts, and have seen some legends when I joined, drift off in the the SHL ethos.

@Steelhead77 - For me, I wouldn't know what the hell the SHL is without my friend Esa. I joined the league, while visiting him in the summer of 2014. I'd bet any amount of money, that 5 years later I wouldn't have had a player just inducted into the HOF, and about to hit 1000 TPE on my recreate. It's because of his dedication to this league that kept it interesting to me, plus the fact that he's been a GM for seems like 50 years, and won a bunch of cups, and is the all time leading scorer in league history, those things alone would get him on Mt. Rushmore, however, it's the little things that Esa does behind the seasons that makes guys that play for him, that puts him at the top of my list on the Mt. Rushmore of the SHL.

@Wasty - Longest tenured GM in the SHL. Got the pleasure to play with him in Juniors, then got rescued by him from a not so enjoyable situation, and got my start in the SHL with the LA Panthers. I couldn't be more grateful to Wasty, who really helped me out on my original players build, and trusted a 650 TPE center to play major minutes on his 2nd line. Only wish i could have repaid his faith in me with a Cup. My biggest regret that I have in the SHL.

@.bojo - he honestly should be on everyones list with his .box - amazing SHL member.

@Mike Izzy - Izzy has done more for me unintentionally that he knows. There was a period of time, after like 19 seasons or so, with my original player, that I was as close as there is to calling it quits, hanging up my SHL skates for ever. Since Izzy joined the Dragons, his positive attitude and encouragement in the locker room, renewed my desire in the league, and I am forever grateful that he was acquired when he was and have the pleasure of calling him a teammate and friend.
