Top Three

My pick is the top three hockey players from my point of view.
I'm judging these athletes with the following criteria: how many years they played, goals and assists of this year, plus and minus in the league as well as points.

1. My first pick would be Evgeni Malkin: Evgeni has played with the Pittsburgh Penguins for three years. He has a total of 114 goals, 185 assist and 299 points, Evgeni has a plus of 19 in 2008-2009 season with the Pittsburgh Penguins. For these reasons I believe Malkin is an amazing hockey player. His talent is raw and his stats are the result of hard work and determination.

2. My second pick would be Alex Ovechkin: Alex has played with Washington Capitals for almost four years. Alex made a huge impression over the NHL with 217 goals, 194 assist and 411 points in 4 years.Alex has a strong four years in his career and his plus-minus for 2008-2009 is a plus 12. Ovechkin possesses the strong qualities of a hockey player such as talent, strength, stamina, and determination. He is one of many players who would make a great role model for young kids and is very entertaining to watch.

3. My third pick has to be my favourite hockey player, Roberto Luongo. Lou has played for three different hockey clubs which include: The New York Islanders, Florida Panthers, and the Vancouver Canucks. Roberto has a total of 227 wins, 230 losses and 33 ties and OT games in 538 games. Luongo possesses the qualities that every goalie wishes to possess, such as strength, smarts, speed, and the ability to read a situation and react accordingly. He is the envy of many young hockey goalies and has had many accomplishments throughout his career.

Superpower

If i were to have a superpower i would choose to fly. I believe with this super power I would have many advantages such as dodging my opponent's and outwitting their smarts. I would be able to make it to destinations quicker and not have to deal with planes or any one of those airport troubles. Traffic is another problem which I could avoid if I could fly, and I would take advantage of this every time. I wouldn't put myself in danger of car crashes and other things if I could fly and I could also save time when travelling.
