His stock with me actually rose a little bit when he was playing with Calgary, and Detroit kept interfering with the goalie. So they put in McClennan, and whenever Holmstrom (or whomever it was) started messing with him, McClennan just whacked the piss out of him with his stick and took the ejection for the team. My first thought was "Good for him."
Well, my main reason for him being considered the worst was a five-hole the size of the Eiffel Tower. He was a cool guy, just bleh skillz. He has a really inspiring backstory after he left STL, some sort of accident, sickness, or something and he wasn't supposed to be able to play hockey again.

It’s hard pick between Brent Johnson and Patrick Lalime.
Brent Johnson had at least a good playoff run and a few winning streaks. Patrick Lalime sucked every game he was with us. Definitely Lalime.

Does anyone know what happened to Kariya's game? He was the best player in league at one point. A 50-goal scorer. An all-star. He is nothing like he was when he was with the Ducks, and he's not even that old. Sundin still scored goals up until he retired. I thought we'd at least get 20+ goals from Kariya. What happened to this guy's abilities?!

I think it really depends on the system that his team plays. If you remember, he was horrid in his stint with Colorado too. Then he goes to Nashville and plays pretty well for an aging winger, then comes here and sucks again. Although this time I don't even see his feet moving.

Paulie has been realy bad, but he's played very hard the last three games. He's skated and forechecked as hard as anyone.

That said, I guess it means he's simply DONE.

I still wouldn't say he's the worst ALL TIME. Per how he's playing though, he may be the most OVER PRICED player in recent Blues history..

PK has been very good the last few games. I officially retract this snarky (but accurate at the time) post.
