      You probably knew this but Mike Bossy holds the record for the most goals scored in a final season of a career. One columnist wrote that Mike Bossy missed 13 games and suffered severe back pain managing "only" 38 goals; even during the time of unprecedented scoring most healthy players could only dream of scoring that many.

    You have an owner like Harold Ballard. See how your team does. That being said. Lack of finishing a series and grit have stopped the Leafs in the playoffs. Every point leader deserves the award you can't compare decades. I seriously doubt a lot of the great players could play in the 70's 80's or 90's. Even the 50's and 60's. The game has changed so much. Not all the great older players could keep up today with not only the top players but guys lower in rankings. I was lucky enough too see ,Howe, Bossy, Gretzky, Bobby Hull all the great players from the 70's up until now.

    Since then, the only current teams not to have at least played in the final are Winnipeg, Arizona, Minnesota, Columbus, and Seattle, if I'm not mistaken.

    Just stop saying "would"
    That's not how you speak in the past tense. For instance: Mike Vernon WAS SENT down." It happened. There is no need for "would" or "would be" For instance: "Mike Vernon would be sent down" doesn't make sense.
    Think about the response to that statement: Mike Vernon would be sent down...He would?
    Or
    Mike Vernon would be sent down ....If not for what?
    Now, what you really were doing is a common practice in all of historical writing, and I blame the word count obsessed teachers of the past. Amateur historians do this all the time, mostly out of habit. And here is why it's wrong
    "Would" can be used as a past tense form of "will." "Will" is a commitment or a known inevitability, a future tense of "being." For instance " I will go to the store"
    Then, I am going to the store
    Then I went to store
    At no point I "would went" to the store.
    And your probably thinking 'no, it's "would have went"
    To which I reply, "if not for what"
    "Would" is used to replace "will" when "will" is part of the object of a past tense sentence... sounds complicated but it's not.
    I will go to the store
    I went to the store
    I said I would go to the store
    So, the subject is always "I"
    The predicates are "will go," "went," and "said"
    I the third sentence, I'm speaking in the past tense. Literally I said "I will go to the store" but in this instance, in order to keep the tense consistent within the sentence "will" is changed to "would" The verb is changed in the third sentence from "to go" too "to say"
    What did I say?
    I said
    "I [would] go to the store"

    You had to win 2 playoff series in 1967…
    Philadelphia won with 3 rounds and never won with 4 ….. may be the only one
    Great video but the simple mistake there kills a lot of credibility. I didn’t even have to look that up

      From 1924 to 1942 there were more than six teams (up to ten).
      Prior to 1927 PCHA and WCHL also competed for the Stanley Cup.
      (There were more than two rounds.)

      @@SverigeiSverige you are correct. The only thing is I don’t think they were all 7 game series at any point before it went down to 6 teams. I could be wrong. But your point is spot on. Technically the Red Wings are a continuation of the Victoria Cougars and the Blackhawks are a continuation of the Portland Rosebuds of the PCHL but the NHL don’t recognize it. Regardless the legacy lives on silently. Also the Seattle Metropolitans were the first American team to win the cup (1917) when though they didn’t have an NHL team until last year
      Fun fact they were in the finals
      Vs Montreal when the Spanish flu stopped the cup and the cup was awarded to them but they declined. So they could’ve had two.

      Of course Wayne wouldn't have a chance. He wasn't even the best skater, stick handler or shooter in his era. What set him apart was his unmatched vision of the ice combined with his superhuman ability to read the plays. McDavid possesses all the aforementioned skills and is a smart player. Wayne Gretzky himself wondered out loud if he could play in today's league - a statement made by the most intelligent hockey player ever who is probably one of the most knowledgeable of the game today.

      Mattias...... I think you could take a lot of average players from nowadays and they would be stars playing like that in the 80s. So much has changed from dietary restrictions to youth programs to people actually learning from legends from years past. Competitiveness always improves a competition. You can't compare the past time with the time of today, it just doesn't work. What made Gretzky good is that he was as good as he was when others weren't. We always push the limit, and the limit keeps moving with the effort.

      Perhaps you youngsters forgot that this was the hooking area where players would just hook on you to slow you down without being penalized. It was also the crosschecking and hits from behind without penalties area.
      Not saying he would not have been great but we have to be remind ourselves that this was not the same game.
      I always use the LeBron James example. Put him in the 90's where players were allowed to put their hand on attacking players and James doesn't have as many points. However, put Jordan in current area where players are not allowed to touch attacking players and he would have 25% more points.

      @@iix23 Definitely a different game yes, but defense in general was a lot weaker back then, lots of defenders could only clear up in their vicinity, not many great skaters, goaltenders with a lot smaller equipment and a lot less technique (the science that goaltending has become lol).
      Hard to judge what the outcome would be, but I think a lot of the old stars would not really shine in today's game.
