My question is who wins in a 7 game series and why between the 84 Oilers and the 02 Wings if every player was in their prime.
Oilers Roster:
Wayne Gretzky
Jari Kurri
Mark Messier
Paul Coffey
Glenn Anderson
Ken Linseman
Pat Hughes
Dave Hunter
Willy Lindstrom
Dave Semenko
Kevin McClelland
Randy Gregg
Kevin Lowe
Charlie Huddy
Dave Lumley
Lee Fogolin
Raimo Summanen
Don Jackson
Jaroslav Pouzar
Goalies:
Grant Fuhr
Andy Moog
Wings Roster:
Steve Yzerman
Brendan Shanahan
Sergei Fedorov
Brett Hull
Nicklas Lidstrom
Chris Chelios
Tomas Holmstrom
Igor Larionov
Luc Robitaille
Darren McCarty
Pavel Datsyuk
Jiri Fischer
Kirk Maltby
Boyd Devereaux
Fredrik Olausson
Steve Duchesne
Kris Draper
Mathieu Dandenault
Uwe Krupp
Jiri Slegr
Jason Williams
Goalies:
Dominik Hasek
Manny Legace
Wings have more depth than the Oilers but the Oilers have Gretzky and Messier.
Forwards:
Edge: Wings. Oilers have Gretzky, Messier, Kurri and Anderson but the Wings have 7 great forwards in Yzerman, Shanahan, Federov, Datsyuk, Hull, Robatille and Larianov. The depth is just to much to match.
Defence:
Edge Oilers. Wings have Lidstrom and Chelios but the Oilers have Coffey and then Lowe and Huddy. Pretty even but I give a slight edge to the Oilers.
Goalies:
Edge: Wings. Hasek over Fuhr at their very best. Fuhr is a great goalie but Hasek is a top 3 goalie all time.
I think it would be close but in the end I would have to say the 02 Wings take it in 7. The reason is Hasek in net for the Wings swings it to their favor and the depth at forward for the Wings is something we may never see again.
