Leading forward and d-man from same team?

[Evilsports]

I haven't dug too deep into it, figured someone here might know.
Have the leading forward scorer and leading defenseman scorer came from the same team anytime in recent history?

If so, when?

I'm a bit of a nerd for questions like this and I had a bit of time this am.

The last time was 1988/89. Paul Coffey and Mario Lemieux.

Pretty crazy. It'll be interesting to see if Barrie can hold off Adam Fox.

Fox and Letang are both done I think.

Geez, just looking back at that season. In the entire league, only Patrick Roy had a SV% higher than .900 with a blistering .909.

Stats from the 80s are pretty ridiculous.

Mike Smith needs a 3 pt game to make it forward, D, G

Put Koskinen on waivers so the Canucks pick him up and start him for the last game.

Why spend 4.5M when an empty net costs them $0?

Was curious, looked up at that Pens season. With the number 1 forward and number 1 d-man they managed to sweep their opponents in the first round and lost in 7 games in the 2nd round.

Wonder how the Oilers will do in comparison

A more impressive stat in my opinion:

Not since 1984-85, has any team led the league with the top two forwards and the top scoring defenseman. Edmonton did it then with Gretzky (208), Kurri (135) and Coffey (121). It has only been done by five teams, eleven times in 100+ years of NHL history. That's some pretty elite company, especially considering fewer teams back then and less parity. Unfortunately playoffs haven't been very kind to these teams. Only three went on to win the cup. Let's try and make it four.

20-21	Edmonton
84-85	Edmonton
73-74	Boston
70-71	Boston
66-67	Chicago
63-64	Chicago
54-55	Montreal
52-53	Detroit
51-52	Detroit
49-50	Detroit
39-40	Boston
