I don't know the answer, but in '82-'83, the Habs had 4 (Lafleur, Houle, Wickenheiser, Green) and the Sabres had 2 (Perreault, McCourt). Did they all play in the same game?
I've only found a few 5's, not sure if they all played against each other...
2002-03 Isles had 3 former 1st round picks (Yashin, Hamrlik, and DiPietro), Atlanta had 2 (Kovalchuk, Stefan), Dallas had 2 (Modano, Turgeon) and Pittsburgh had 2 as well (Daigle, Lemieux). It doesn't yet look like any other team had 3. (A few close but no cigar 2nd overall picks with Muller w/ DAL and Heatley w/ ATL).
2005-2006 Stars had 3 (Stefan, Modano, Lindros). Columbus and the Isles each had 2 that year. (Nash, Berard, and Yashin, DiPietro).
Ew. Just ew.2002-03 Isles had 3 former 1st round picks (Yashin, Hamrlik, and DiPietro), Atlanta had 2 (Kovalchuk, Stefan)...
Yeah, I'm embarrassed by my gaffe. Ew is right, although P-u (puteo, Latin for stench) and poo would apply as well.Ew. Just ew.
The 15-16 Oilers had four on their team (McDavid, Yakupov, Hall, RNH), so I imagine there must be a game with six involving them?
EDIT: it seems like the only hope for that was their games with Pittsburgh (Crosby & Fleury), but Fleury didn't play in either of them.

The following season the Habs also had 4 - delete Houle, add Smith.
I think Houle and Tardif were drafted by the Habs under that provision, 1st and 2nd overall.I'm a bit confused how the French rights worked for Montreal. My understanding was that the Habs only got to select these guys after the draft was completed, but I do see that Houle was picked first overall.
I remember reading something that the Habs never got much of anything under French rights provision, except for houle, but now it seems he went through the regular draft?
