1999 - Mike Dunham, Nashville Predators
Someone had to represent the expansion Predators, right? I guess I can understand the Kenner representatives' decision, as I'd imagine it'd be tough to choose between Dunham, Cliff Ronning, and Sergei Krivokrasov. Formerly a teammate with Garth Snow at the University of Maine, it's obvious that the New York Islanders general manager failed at convincing Dunham to go with the "pillow" look for his goalie pads.
...i still haven't forgiven Dunham for ruining Mike Richter's jersey retirement night. FYI Gaborik scored the game winner that night for the Wild.
2000 - Anson Carter, Boston Bruins
There's no question about whether or not Carter deserved one. He produced early in his career and then later when he was sandwiched in-between the Sedin twins in Vancouver as part of "The Brothers Line". The abomination is putting Carter in one of those atrocious Kodiak bear third jerseys instead of the beloved spoked "B".
...hell, they should have made one of Carter in a Rangers jersey for being the sole reason the Rangers franchise turned when he was traded to Washington for Jaromir Jagr.
Leahy also lists former Ranger Niklas Sundstrom as a member of the Sharks.
