Twenty years is practically an eternity in the lifespan of an ECHL team, so assembling the Johnstown Chiefs' 20th anniversary team was a task not taken lightly by The Tribune-Democrat or the Chiefs front office.

The Chiefs' loyal fans took the process pretty seriously too.

A total of 728 ballots were cast either electronically on the Internet, through ballots published in The Tribune-Democrat or available during home games. Voting lasted throughout February, approximately a month.
