I seem to recall seeing him (it was on TV, so it had to be a road game) on a partial breakaway (amazing, huh?) and from about 10 feet out, he shot it into the left corner.

Not the corner of the net. The left corner boards, like where a zamboni would come out.

Sounds about right. I cannot honestly remember him actually playing the game, just the fights.

Could have been a hell of a pitcher, though.

I was surprised when I looked at the list...Paul Coffey played for 9 teams.

It's not one of those things that you think first about his career.

He was the best. It was like listening to music.

In no particular order

Rick Foley
Can just barely remember him from when I was a tyke. He looked like John Kruk on skates, but hell, at least Kruk could actually play his sport!

Ed Van Impe
Nasty S.O.B., but slow as molasses

Willie Huber
You could time him with a sundial

Brad Marsh
All heart and a great shot blocker, but man was he slow

Dave Hoyda
Hard to really tell how slow he truly was, he was rarely on the ice for more than a few seconds before getting into a fight

Dave Brown
Thankfully, it's not necessary to skate to beat the crap out of people

Glen Cochrane
Pairing him with Mark Howe (yes they actually played together for a while) was like pairing the roadrunner with Foghorn Leghorn

Michael Handzus
Zus had a lot of great attributes and skills, however skating wasn't one of them.

Keith Jones
Jonesy was so slow, that he didn't make it off the ice after his final shift until halfway through the next season

Scott Hartnell
Yeah, he's not really that bad a skater, but man, the guy goes down more than a Kardashian sister.

Keith Primeau had an awkward skating style. Mike Rathje was slow. Chris Pronger could do everything but skate. Derian Hatcher slow and the knee to prove it. Steve Downie was an awful looking skater his rookie year.

The Flyers only face the Penguins once this season on NBC. That's so weird. Not even a Wednesday Night Rivalry.
