The Triple Crown line did it in 1981. Lemieux did it again in 1996 with Jagr and Francis.

The Maritimes
The Brent Sutter line, '84-'85.

Sutter scored 102 points, even though he missed 8 games. He never scored more than 68 points in any other season.

Tonelli scored 100 points. He only scored 70 points or more in one other season - '81-'82, when he scored 93. He also played on the top line a significant portion of that season.

Wasn't Nedved playing with Lemieux and Jagr that year? And he ended with 99 points?

My understanding/recollection is that Lemieux-Francis-Jagr was a full time line in 1997 but things were in flux in 1996. I don't recall Nedved as Lemieux and Jagr's centre but it wouldn't shock me. I think that Lemieux played some centre that year as well.

In terms of close calls:

- 1971-72 GAG line: Ratelle & Hadfield had 100, and Gilbert had 97 in 73 games
- I *believe* Shanahan played with Janney and Hull in 92-93? In which case, Janney and Hull both got 100 and Shanny ended with 94 points in 71 games.

Lemieux wasn't scoring at his old pace so Johnston put him with Francis and Jagr late in November 1996 to try and get him back to his expected production. They carried Pittsburgh on that great run they had later in the year when Lalime became the starter. But only Lemieux topped 100 points in 96-97. Jagr missed 19 games though and still had 95 points so he would have hit 100 had he not missed time. Francis had 90 pts in 81 games.

In 95-96, when all 3 surpassed 100 points, they didn't play on the same line. Lemieux played with Sandstrom and I think Naslund/Glen Murray and Jagr and Francis played with Nedved. But they were together on that ridiculous power play.

In 2005-2006, Ottawa had Alfredsson and Heatley with 103 pts each, and Spezza scored 90 pts in 68 games. He would have undoubtedbly reached 100 pts if he played those extra 14 games given his PPG pace.

afaik the only 50 goal line—andreychuk - lafontaine - mogilny. tbf, andreychuk was traded to toronto 2/3 of the way through the year and was "only" on pace for 47 goals before the trade.

Yes, Francis, Jagr, Nedved, mostly.

Lemieux, Sandstrom, Naslund, mostly.

Yep, mostly, but there were definitely others throughout the season. Here are all the players I could find scoring more than one point with Lemieux at ES that season:

Sandstrom 24
Jagr 12
Nedved 4
Francis 10
Naslund 24
Smolinski 9

95-96 Jagr played with Francis and Nedved. Lemiuex played with Sandstrom and Naslund (until Nazzy was traded to Canucks at deadline).

That 1995-96 Penguins power-play was ridiculous. Lemieux was on for either 96% or 97% of the team's PP goals that season, which must be some kind of record for a forward. It seems Johnson's PP-strategy was, 'Play Lemieux'. Which is fine, but maybe they should have saved him up more.
