Do you think having 2 of the oldest players in the league on your team hinders your cup chances?

    It’s also crazy to think Donald Brashear & Jaromir Jagr are still playing in a pro league at 51 years ~~old~~ young

    Having Ryan Suter on your team alone hinders cup chances. Dude is a train wreck of defense.

    To be clear, this is oldest without a cup. There may be others that have multiple old guys, but they’ve won before.

    Yes, but only because Suter is a pylon anyways

  5. GoldMonk44

    Not Pavelski at least, guy is the model of consistency almost never gets hurt and still produces very well with top players. Suter is for sure well past his prime, probably “good in the room” 😛

    Thinking that I’d be in the middle of this makes me feel old.

    If Ottawa makes the playoffs, I’m rooting for them to get G the cup the Flyers couldn’t

    Isn’t Blake Wheeler older than both Zuccarello and Giroux?

    No. But having Suter does.

    Everyone in this list is a very valuable very complete player who is excellent for training younger players of their style of play… except Suter.

    This makes me feel old AF now. Giroux and I are the same age.

    You can take the Brent burns out of carolinur but you can’t take the carolinur out the Brent burns.

    I’m still surprised that Suter has aged as poorly as he has. I always thought of him for years as being similar to Bergeron where he was never overly reliant on skating, but rather a keen sense of positioning and angling, so figured that would just age really well. But now he’s maybe the classic example of a player aging poorly, at least in terms of the really old guys.

    Giroux has been around since the flyers were a cup favorite and he was their captain.

    Already been said but Suter hinders your chances, regardless of where he places on the age list. Pavelski can still play.
