For me it is Saku Koivu

There are a few. Jerome Iginla, Joe Sakic, Steve Yzerman when I was Super young. Eric Staal became my all time favourite player when the Canes won the cup in 06 (9 years old)

Also a huge factor in this is the fact I am from Thunder Bay ON

I never had a player that made me fall in love with the game but the earliest players that I can remember liking are Stamkos, Tyler Myers and Dwayne Roloson because I kicked ass with them in NHL.

Evgeny Nabokov; made me a sharks fan and try goaltending.

Then you got random names that are stuck in my head: Pavol Demitra (like just a name that I’m never gonna forget), Smyth, Havlat, Heatley, Dipietro. to name a few

Guy Lafleur. Then Gretzky exploded. Messier was a bull. Then Leetch and my 94 NYR dream team. ????

Nice idea for an agm.

Steve Yzerman as a young kid cause he had it all and came across as classy.

Scott Niedermayer cause he made it look effortless. Classy, too

Wendel Clark, cause I'm a leafs fan and the guy did it all.

I fell in love with hockey because of hockey.

Unconventional answer as to my favorite player. Vladislav Tretiak. Runner up - Ron Hextall.

Players that had a wow factor for me. Bobby Orr, Mike Bossy, Of course Wayne, Yzerman to name a few.

For me it was the MSU Spartans I lived just off campus for 4 years.

Then when we moved to Detroit it was Steve Yzerman and Joe Sakic still with the Quebec Nordiques. I do consider myself lucky to have seen players like Fedorov, Lidstrom and Datsyuk play on a regular basis.
