Ultimately, he managed to make the playoffs with a team that was not only inexperienced and/or bad, but one that was also injured for much of the season. Tortorella got a pretty bad team [...]

It’s even more difficult to believe Rinne was taken in the eighth round, with the 258th pick, in 2004, and this was just his [...]

THE BIG WHY: Only one team has Nicklas Lidstrom, easily the most experienced and arguably still, at 41, the most superior defenseman in the NHL.
