Ovechkin, Backstrom, and Semin, for pure offense.

Best overall would probably be the Elias, Parise and Langenbrunner line in New Jersey.

 

those are 2 outstanding lines

 

I'd say when there all on the same line Ovechkin, Backstrom, and Semin. but that doesn't happen enough, they like to put semin on line 2, for secondary scoring.

 

Yea also just to spread out the talent. Honestly Sharp, Kane and Toews is a pretty great line and Datsy Zetterburg and Holmstrom is another good line. Then you have Malkin, Crosby and Guerin which isn't to bad either.

 

Yea those 2 together are very good it really doesn't matter who you put them with.

 

In playoffs it was around every now and then he would throw them out their together and on the powerplay sometimes more in playoffs than anything. And yea bobby ryan would I think be the current player on that line with them .

 

Yes, I said they did play together in a handful of games. A handful of games doesn't count as the best line in the NHL. It should be more of a permanent line.

 

i would say Spezza,Alfredsson,Heatley line. But i think it's going to be changed though. With Kovalev coming in

 

I completely forgot who the third member of the line was. It was either Elias or Zajac, so I took a stab at it.

 

Well, Elias and Parise have been good together in overtime, so you could probably replace Zajac with Elias and that line would still produce.

 

jersey and ottawa are a great match up. Those both are great lines. But i still say the spezza line

 

IF I had one line to put out against any line in the league right now it would have to be The Richards -Hartnell combo in Philly. Not sure who exactly is the other winger is going to be but in just those two you have 60g, 140pts, 206pim, and a Selke nominee.

You put a healthy Briere or Gagne on that line and the offensive potency goes through the roof. Put a tough defensive grinder on the line and you have about the best shutdown line in the League, that will even kick your @ss and score a goal or two on you for good measure.

Sure Datsyuk or Zeterberg may be better offensively and defensively than Richards, slightly on both counts, but Richards has a toughness neither of the Europeans possess.

I don't know about the BEST line in Hockey, but this one is fast becoming my favorite regardless of the 2nd winger.

 

Briere didn't do anything last year he was sent down to the minors he did a little work. that line can flat out play if healthy. But if i had 1 line to pick it would be the Spezza,Alfredsson,and Heatley line

 

Briere wasn't sent down to the minors. He was injured and had a conditioning stint in the minors to make sure that he could skate and play alright before being brought back to the NHL team. He still had 25 points in the 29 games he played with the Flyers after he came back.

 

dude i saw him play for the Phantoms

 

On his conditioning stint.

 

yea i know that.

 

A conditioning stint is entirely different than being sent down.

 

yea cause if sent down your kind of down their for a longer time

 

Yes, that and you're also applicable to waiver claims. Conditioning stints aren't.

 

I gotta say, the power line would be Spezza, Alfie and Hea. As much as I hate Heatly, those 3 together are beastly. They have been playing together for a while, and they play awesome together.

 

The problem with the Spezza, Alfie, and Heatley line is that only one of them plays defense, and if we are going for a purely offensive line I would go with Ovie, Backstrom, and Semin. They only went out when we needed a goal so I don't know if they qualify for this post but that would be my choice. The best all around line might be Franzen, Zetterberg, and Holmstrom. Did Holmstrom play on that line a lot or did he play most of the season with Datsyuk. I might have to take that back if that's the case. Tough question now that i think more about it.

 

"He shoots, he scooooooores" has to be the best line.

"Holy Macinaw" is not bad either.

 

look at my Sig. it tells every thing
