Karine Hains: Lifetime Fan? What's YOUR Line-up? Many other fanbases justify their hatred for Canadiens fans by the "fact" that Habs fans are always referring to the glory years of the teams which were so long ago that it's not even relevant anymore. If you could pick your starting 6 from all the Tricolore players you have seen play, who would make the cut?

Gainey / Bobby Smith / Lafleur (Could throw in Shutt or Lemaire)
Robinson / Markov (Could throw in Savard)
Dryden (Could throw in Racicot).

(The height of my hockey obsession coincided with the 1976-79 Habs—though I could go back a bit further for a couple of players, as my first clear memories of watching hockey are of the legendary 1971 elimination of the “Big, Bad Bruins”.)

LaFleur/Beliveau/Rocket ---> This line will score 5+ goals a night.

Weber/Robinson ---> This D-line will ripp anybody's head off if they cross the blue-line.

St Patrick ---> If everything fails,.... we've got St Patrick to blink at the oppositions forwards.

Gainey's an interesting choice, people who go for a defensive specialist are rare...

You're kidding with Red light right?

Nearly included Richer as well, but went with Gally's heart instead. We certainly could use a 50 goal scorer like him these days...

Lucky you! Would have loved to be around for that golden era, the one reason why I'd like to be older lol
