Is this a good all-time team of hockey players from Manitoba?
Left wing, Dennis Hextall of Poplar Point. Center, Bobby Clarke of Flin Flon. The rest are all from Winnipeg: Right wing, Andy Bathgate; defensemen, Ivan "Ching" Johnson and Art Coulter; goaltender, Terry Sawchuk. This Province is very deep in goal, with Sawchuk pushing out Ed Belfour, Turk Broda, Joe Daley, Ron Hextall (Dennis' nephew) and Bill Ranford. I couldn't put Bryan Hextall Sr. or Jr. (Ron's grandpa and father) on the list, either. I went ancient-school on defense, with 1930s Ranger teammates of Bryan Hextall Sr. In fact, except for Clarke, all these players were Rangers for at least one season.
