Simple exercise, what is the best core your team ever had, and what would it take (using today's players) to get back to that level? Then fill in the rest of the lineup with today players (see at the bottom), but replace the top line guys, don't just push them down the lineup.
For Montreal it's a ridiculous 7-man core, probably at its height circa 1957 (I'll add the today player next to each OG):
Jean Beliveau (Evgeni Malkin+)
Rocket Richard (Alex Ovechkin+)
Doug Harvey (Roman Josi)
Jacques Plante (Carey Price)
Boom Boom Geoffrion (Max Pacioretty+)
Dickie Moore (Brad Marchand)
Henri Richard (Jack Eichel)
Montreal fans- comments? Imagine having that core today? lol.
Marchand - Malkin - Ovechkin
Pacioretty - Eichel - Anderson
Toffoli - Kotkaniemi - Armia
Lehkonen - Evans - Byron
Poehling
Josi - Weber
Romanov - Petry
Edmundson - Kulak
Mete
Price
