If you could merge two teams

[OVrocks]

Russia and Canada would go 82-0

 

[dr robbie]

Schenn – Crosby – Tarasenko
Schwartz – Malkin – Guentzel
Rust – O’Reilly – Kessel
McCann - Sundqvist – Hornqvist

Dunn – Letang
Maatta – Pietrangelo
Pettersson – Parayko

Binnington/Murray

Yes please.

 

[Name Nameless]

Actualy think Arizona and Florida would be decent.

Florida gets most of the forwards, defence and goalies mostly on the Coyotes.

 

[Riseonfire]

The answer is easily Tampa / NYR

Look at how the supersquad did this year! Though I could understand if some confused NYR for Tampa's farm team.

 

[Thrasymachus]

The Calgmenton Flamlers:

Gaudreau-Mcdavid-Draisaitl
Tkachuk-Monahan-Lindholm
RNH-Backlund-Frolik
Bennett-Ryan-Neal

Giordano-Brodie
Hanifin-Hamonic
Klefbom-Nurse
Larsson

Rittich
Koskinen/Smith

I actually think this is the best possible combination of teams. Tampa is great, but a Gaudreau - Mcdavid - Draisaitl line is just filthy

 

[Red Dread]

Tampa Bay and Pittsburgh

Stamkos-Crosby-Kucherov
Gourde-Malkin-Kessel
Guentzel-Point-Hornqvist
T.Johnson-Cirelli-Miller

Hedman-Letang
McDonagh-Cernak
Sergachev-Girardi

Vasilevskiy
Murray

Holy ****, that's loaded.

 

[SmellOfVictory]

Cgy-Wpg

Gaudreau-Scheifele-Laine
Tkachuk-Backlund-Wheeler
Connor-Monahan-Lindholm
Ehlers-Hayes-Frolik

Giordano-Trouba
Hanifin-Hamonic
Morrissey-Byfuglien
Brodie/Andersson

Hellebuyck
Rittich

 

[HanSolo]

Well not to create the best team but merge my lifelong team and my hometown team (Anaheim/Vegas)

Rakell-Getzlaf-Stone
Marchessault-Karlsson-Smith
Pacioretty-Stastny-Tuch
Silfverberg-Haula-Terry

Schmidt-Lindholm
Theodore-Manson
Fowler-McNabb

Gibson
Fleury

Coach: Gallant

Probably not the best possible combo but this team would handily win the cup if there was no salary cap and no other team could merge. It is amusing to me that merging the Ducks and Knights would reunite Theodore with Lindholm, Fowler, and Manson.

 

[jonlin]

Team Swenland:

Landeskog-Barkov-Rantanen
Forsberg-Bäckström-Lindholm
Laine-Aho-Teräväinen
Pettersson-Zibanejad-Karlsson

Granlund
Backlund

Hedman-Karlsson
Klingberg-OEL
Lindell-Ekholm

Dahlin
Heiskanen

Rinne
Rask
Lundqvist

 

[tony d]

Tampa and Pittsburgh would be quite good IMO.

 

[FaulkYouAho]

since everyone doing tampa might as well throw the hat in for carolina and tampa. Don't know much about them meshing with another team tho... maybe washington???
Tampa
Stamkos Aho Kucherov
Nino Point Tuevo
Palat Cirelli Svech
(shut down line) Killorn Staal Gourde
Miller/Johnson

Hedman Pesce
Slavin McD
CDH Hamilton
Stralman/Sergachev
Washington
Ovi Kuznetsov Tuevo
Nino Aho Oshie
Haglin Backstorm Williams
Ferland Staal Wilson

Slavin Carlson
Orlov Hamilton
CDH Faulk

 

[CartographerNo611]

Edm and Buffalo would be beastly outside of goaltending lol.

 

[Rob Brown]

Toronto and Nashville:

Arvidsson - Tavares - Marner
Forsberg - Matthews - Nylander
Granlund - Johansen - Kapanen
Hyman - Kadri - Smith
Johnsson

Rielly - Josi
Ekholm - Ellis
Muzzin - Subban
Gardiner

Rinne
Andersen

I wasn't totally sure on the D pairings - I know Josi shoots left so that could be moved around. Pretty stacked all around, though.

 

[RoloTonyBrownTown]

I don't even need the rest of the team just give the Sharks a real goalie and I'll be happy.

 

[PensPlz]

Merge the rosters if the Kings and Senators.

Do they make the playoffs?

 

[PittsburghPens8771]

Pens and caps.

You guys can have Tampa and Nashville and Winnipeg and the rest of the teams who don’t win anything. I’ll take the champs.

 

[Artanis]

Merge the rosters if the Kings and Senators.

Do they make the playoffs?

Does Melnyk own the team? If so, probably not.

 

[CauZuki]

Montreal and Tampa could be fun but it's not answering the OP:

Domi - Stamkos - Kucherov
Palat - Point - Gallagher
Tatar - Kotkaniemi - Miller
Poehling/Gourde - Danault - Shaw

Hedman - Weber
McDonagh - Petry
Sergachev - Juulsen
Mete

Price
Vasilveskiy

Here is the real answer (imo of course):

Tampa + Nashville , they compliment each other too well (just the D alone is unstoppable):

Forsberg - Stamkos - Kucherov
Johnson - Point - Arvidsson
Palat - Johansen - Granlund
Turris - Smith - Miller

Hedman - Ellis
Josi - Subban
McDonagh - Ekholm

Vasilveskiy
Rinne

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

TB and Ottawa

Palat-Stamkos-Miller
Johnson-Point-Kucherov
Killorn-Cirelli-Joseph
Ernie-Paquette-Gourde

Hedman-Sergachev
McDonagh-Cernak
Coburn-Rutta

Vasilesky

 

[TheGoldenGod]

 

[LuckyBoeser]

I will be very creative and combine my team with the Bolts:

Vancouver + Tampa
Pettersson - Point - Kucherov
Gourde - Stamkos - Boeser
Miller - Horvat - Roussel
Killorn - Cirelli - Joseph
Hedman - Tanev
McDonagh - Cernak
Edler - Sergachev
Vasilevskiy
Markstrom​

I know Sergy is a ld, but I really did not want to exclude him.

[ponder719]

Merging a team with the Lightning is too easy. I'm setting myself a challenge: no playoff teams allowed.

Philadelphia + Buffalo

Giroux - Couturier - Konecny
Skinner - Eichel - Voracek
van Riemsdyk - Patrick - Reinhart
Lindblom - Mittelstadt - Sheary
Hartman

Provorov - Gostisbehere
Dahlin - Ristolainen
Sanheim - Montour
Myers

Hart
Hutton

 

[BonMorrison]

Merge the rosters if the Kings and Senators.

Do they make the playoffs?

Tkachuk - Kopitar - Brown
White - Carter - Toffoli
Kovalchuk - Pageau - Ryan
Iafallo - Tierney - Duclair

Chabot - Doughty
Forbort - Martinez
Phaneuf - Ceci

Quick
Anderson

Woof.

 

[BlueBull]

Merging a team with the Lightning is too easy. I'm setting myself a challenge: no playoff teams allowed.

Montreal + Arizona would be a Nightmare, Defensively.
Edit: what is their lineup?
