What was the first line on the 60s Blackhawks. The million dollar line, or the scooter line? If it was the scooter line then Bobby hull. If it was the million dollar line then Stan Mikita. They not only were the leading scorers on the team they won the art Ross 7 times

That was after the deadline. We add Recchi and Weight.

Recchi simply slotted into Erik Cole's spot after Cole's scary neck injury.

Even if you want to debate who played with which linemates, let's just examine what's really important: Brind'Amour vs. Staal

	TOI	EV TOI	PP TOI	SH TOI	Playoff TOI
Brind'Amour	24:18	14:32	5:24	4:21	23:52
Staal	19:39	13:23	5:30	0:45	19:48

To the point of this thread, there is no question Staal was Carolina's #2 center that year.

 

[Dr John Carlson]

Evgeny Kuznetsov in 15/16. Led them in scoring despite playing on the 2nd line as well as the 2nd PP unit.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

Mats Zuccarello led 2013-14 Stanley Cup Runner up Rangers playing on technically the 3rd line with Derick Brassard and Benoit Pouliot. Derek Stepan and Brad Richards centered the top 2 lines.

He was 5th in TOI/GP for forwards on that Ranger team.
