Kelly and Harvey really?
Pilote was top-3 among ALL NHLers,
not just defensemen in assists twice in the 60's, won three straight Norris trophies and
was 1st or 2nd team all star for eight straight seasons in the 1960's, but he consistently gets overlooked in discussions of greatest of the era. He deserves at least a mention.
Here's PEAK for you:
1961 Stanley Cup (
leads the NHL in assists and points)
1962 2nd team all-star, Stanley Cup Finalist
1963-65
three straight Norris trophies
1966-67 two more 1st team all-star selections
You cannot/shouldn't overlook a guy like that in any decade!
