Montreal.

No question. That 77 team lost 8 games. They had a monopoly on Quebec born players until the 70s. Any team in the salary cap era isn't even close. Before the cap era, the big money teams collected all the best players.

Am I missing something here? Where's the lineups?

Just home from the WC. Arrrgghhh..

Chicago bias but we are a stretch at 6 considering eras and all..

Pitts prob take the all time, maybe Montreal.

Thoughts?

I'd like to see Edmonton's All Time full roster

The forwards get pretty average after Gretzky, Messier, McDavid, Hall, Kurri and Anderson - Gets into Doug Weight/Ryan Smyth territory real fast

No real notables on D beyond Coffey and Pronger

They can't roll out 18 like Pittsburgh can

- RoloTahmasee


Weight, Arnott, Guerin, Damphousse, Draisaitl, Nuge, Simpson, Tikkanen, Oates, Nicholls, Graves, Nilsson, Peca, Samsonov,

Lowe, Huddy, Gregg, Smith, Klefbom, Larsson, J Smith

I think the "new blood" on the Oilers (McDavid, Leon, Nuge, Klefbom, Larsson, Hall, Eberle, etc.) put the Oilers over the top.

I'm also biased that McDavid>Crosby and Gretzy>Lemieux, which PIT fans might not agree.

I have my doubts about Montreal and Boston however!

I think the 2002 wings beat that team! I guess I didn’t realize it was any player that ever played for the team. Thought there were more standards. Ha. But yeah that lineup still isn’t that impressive

But what else does Pittsburgh have? It isn’t pretty. Unless you get extra points for being a whiny female dog, then Crosby counts as two players
- datswho


I'm sorry, but even as a Hawks fan 2 out of 4 Pitts forwards would smoke the great Lindstrom 85 times out of 100. Do the maff.

I didn’t know it was 5 player lineups. I’m not a season ticket holder lol

I’d apologize but I think I’ve made a solid decision

Hossa's not fair you throw him into any 5 and you just win ;-)

Seriously though 5 players you have to go Pitts. Any era.

I might take the wings? Yzerman, goodie Howe, lidstrom. And some combo of red Lindsay, delvechio, fedorov or datsyu/zetterberg?

I’d guess any original six could make a solid case

If you're asking me I would def do 4 forwards and 1 d man all day.

But seriously can you see the lineups from Ek on the top 9 teams?

But seriously can you see the lineups from Ek on the top 9 teams? Or so I have to be a ticket holder?

Guy Lafleur, Jean Beliveau, Maurice Richard, Larry Robinson, Doug Harvey, Patrick Roy.

I’ll take that overall quintet against any other.

Balance is the key.

Did the NHL start in 1980?

Montreal's gotta be #1. I'd put Detroit at #2, after that several teams have a case for #3.

Ek got super embarrassed that he forgot Bobby Orr so he is currently fixing it.

Like how do you forget a D that will probably for all time hold an accomplishment that no other D will ever reach. Plus Orr did it twice.
