All-time Habs team

[GrandWazoo]

Doesn't "all time" include 100 years ago?

It does. I just figured it's easier to forget guys that plays in the 1910-20s than someone who played with Richard and Harvey.

Chelios won a Nortis with the Habs too, and unlike Harvey, it was not in a six team league. You guys are forgetting how great he was with us in his 6 seasons. Also part of our worst trade ever.

I don't think any of us are underestimating Chelios. But we're talking about Doug Harvey here.

I believe Dorion made them.

1) Dorion?? 2) What does it have to do with anything?

You said above that the draft picks obtained for Damphousse turned out be bad. Dorion made them.

What about best team of best trades?

Damphousse-Smith-Mahovlich
Cleghom-Petry/Souray
Dryden

(We haven't struck gold often when trading for defensemen, maybe I'm missing some)

Weber

 

[Habsy]

Best trade is John Kordic for Russ Courtnall. I still chuckle at that one.

Ah gotcha! Yes he did the 2000 draft.

Rivet for gorges and a first

By far for sure! I was trying to see how I could fit Courtnall in my line up, but hard to beat Damphousse and Mahovlich. Second line for sure.

 

[GrandWazoo]

Although Dryden, from the Bruins no less, for Guy Allen and Paul Reid, takes the cake and eats it.

 

[Habsy]

Rivet for gorges and a first

Another good one. That one keeps on giving too. John Kordic though. Oof.

 

[Krustchev]

Is Gainey the second best LW?

Kordic -> Courtnall -> Bellows was a good trade line.

 

[Habsy]

Rivet trade is still going though

Who's your first?

 

[GrandWazoo]

Is Gainey the second best LW?

I'm guessing first is Shutt.

After that, Moore, Blake, Gainey, Naslund, Mahovlich, Damphousse are in competition. Although Damphousse was converted to center with us after a few years.

 

[Habsy]

Aurel Joliat
Bob Gainey ( most complete player)
Steve Shutt
Mats Naslund
Frank Mahovlich
John Ferguson (nostalgic)

Suzuki

Gainey was the better player.
