the only coaches, imo, who should be made ever are scotty bowman and herb brooks

[Mats_44]

NHL Legends suggestions are always such a waste of time.

It's not about who is deserving. It's about who TMP can sign to a deal without it costing them an arm and a leg.

With that being said, Tim Horton is the next hockey Legend that I'm dying to see made. :D

I wish TMP was able to afford the Celebration Messier Stanley Cup "A" pose and not the "B" one we're getting.:o

[Mats_44]

Or how about the "Betcha Can't Eat Just One" Frito Lays pose?? LOL

What's with all the Stanley Cup poses? Keep up that line of thinking and TMP will want to hire you due to your desire to keep using the same pose over and over again!! :p :D

[Duner]

Here's my choices

Terry O'Reilly - Boston Bruins (Bumped from last series for the extra Messier)
Denis Potvin - NYI
Lanny McDonald - TML (Calgary Chase)
Larry Robinson - MTL
Glen Hall - Chi (St. Louis Chase -should go with the Orr dive pose)
Ted Lindsay - Det
Brad Park - NYR (Boston Chase)

I think that would be a nice mix of original 6 players, cup winners and team icons.

I don't think your chase ideas are going to fly over too well given TMP's new "chase tweaks" and displaced chase figure policy. :p :D

[chasefinder]

eddie giacomin-goal
mel bridgman-player
mario tremblay-coach lolol

[chasefinder]

tremblay tweak=minutes after goal # 9 lolol

Isn't one "stubby" enough??

[chasefinder]

Isn't one "stubby" enough??

[glove-save]

[Thorondor 33]

Patrick Roy please.

[animal _x_ca]

Gilles Meloche - California Golden Seals

Neal Broten - Minnesota North Stars

Reggie Leach - Philidelphia Flyers

Syl Apps Jr. - Pittsburgh Penguins

Jean Ratelle - New York Rangers

I would take that line in a heartbeat

[STL27]

I believe that we will see a Gretzky in a coach's pose (Don Cherry 2?). Not my suggestion, but my guess.

[WingNut 25]

Give me a Ted Lindsay or Terry Sawchuk and I'm good.

[Wardo30]

that'd be horrible

Give me a Ted Lindsay or Terry Sawchuk and I'm good.

Lindsay sounds good....how bout Bucyk

[tragically fish]

count me in on Ted Lindsay

[Mats_44]

If Gordie Howe is a blatant peg warmer then it scares me to think how poorly a Ted Lindsay figure would sell.........:eek:

[Duner]

I don't think your chase ideas are going to fly over too well given TMP's new "chase tweaks" and displaced chase figure policy. :p :D

True but Lanny would fit the current Leafs/Flames combo TMP have been doing:)

[Indy Jones]

Oh look, some more haters.

No one seems to bring up the Islanders, what a shame. They are way overdue for at least 3 legends....

Where the heck is Bryan Trottier, Denis Potvin, and Billy Smith? 19 straight playoff series wins, TMP's a joke....

[Mats_44]

19 straight playoff series wins isn't what sells a figure.......having a good fanbase is what sells a figure!! :p

[chasefinder]

LOL

[Indy Jones]

19 straight playoff series wins isn't what sells a figure.......having a good fanbase is what sells a figure!! :p

We are talking about Legends here? Aren't we? I would have to believe any New York legend figure would sell.

No need to be bitter.....

[Beezer Fan]

Here's my choices

Terry O'Reilly - Boston Bruins (Bumped from last series for the extra Messier)
Denis Potvin - NYI
Lanny McDonald - TML (Calgary Chase)
Larry Robinson - MTL
Glen Hall - Chi (St. Louis Chase -should go with the Orr dive pose)
Ted Lindsay - Det
Brad Park - NYR (Boston Chase)

I think that would be a nice mix of original 6 players, cup winners and team icons.

Solid list - Lanny McDonald would sell, maybe do a split of both Leafs and Flames. Glenn Hall is the perfect choice for the next legends goalie and Robinson for MTL would be sweet.

sounds like we need a Stan Mikita/Tim Horton 2-pack :)
...hmmm donuts

I'm not bitter. TMP makes LOTS of Leafs figures!! :p :D

Deluxe Edition :

Montreal Canadiens
The Big Three (Larry Robinson, Guy Lapointe and Serge Savard).
Quebec Nordiques
Peter, Anton and Marian Stastny
Buffalo Sabres
The French Connection (Gilbert Perreault, Rick Martin, Rene Robert).
Los Angeles Kings
The Triple Crown Line (Marcel Dionne, Dan Taylor and Charlie Simmer).

I like the goalie selections. Now that he's retired, I'd like to see a Sabres' Hasek. Yes, I have the NHLPA Hasek, but it isn't the same without the logo.

Players: Michel Goulet is a good choice. I'd rather see Jari Kurri if they did another Oiler legend. How about a Rod Langway Capitals with a Canadians variant? Pat LaFontaine and Mike Gartner would be good for a few repaints as well.

Coaches...not really interested, but Bowman deserves it.

Love the Deluxe Edition choices. I'd probably buy all of them.

Here's my choices

Terry O'Reilly - Boston Bruins (Bumped from last series for the extra Messier)
Denis Potvin - NYI
Lanny McDonald - TML (Calgary Chase)
Larry Robinson - MTL
Glen Hall - Chi (St. Louis Chase -should go with the Orr dive pose)
Ted Lindsay - Det
Brad Park - NYR (Boston Chase)

I think that would be a nice mix of original 6 players, cup winners and team icons.
That's a good list.

Is there any reason why there hasn't been a new Ray Bourque on the Bruins?

[chasefinder]

$$$$$= could this be your answer?

[w00tiness]

Jari Kurri - EDM, LA chase
Paul Coffey - EDM, PIT chase
Andy Moog - BOS, EDM split
Mark Messier 3 - EDM, NYR split (first one is teeny, second one is SC pose.)
Glenn Anderson - EDM
Bill Ranford - EDM
Kevin Lowe - EDM, NYR chase

No, I'm not biased at all :rolleyes:

On a serious note, I think any of those players spread over the course of the next several legends lines would be excellant choices. I live a lot of the choices in this thread, especially Billy Smith, Lanny McDonald, Glen Hall, Ron Hextall. I'd love a Vezina, Sawchuck, Plante, or Dryden but I doubt that'll happen. :(
