agreed with most everything you said - especially with the Flyers skill depth at the time (i.e. young Gagne and Williams as 3rd line depth).....

....BUT...Berard and McCabe never played on the leafs together. McCabe was Berard's replacement when he was injured (and cost us Karpovtsev).

(In order of Even Strength TOI):

98-99 Playoffs

Markov 22 - Yushkevich 27
Berard 21 - Cote 33
Kaberle 20 - Karpovtsev 28

99-00 Playoffs

Markov 23 - Yushkevich 28
Kaberle 21 - Berard 22 (* injured before playoffs, replaced by Diduck)
Karpovtsev 29 - Cross 29

00-01 Playoffs

Markov 24 - Yushkevich 29
Kaberle 23 - McCabe 25
Berg 23 - Cross 30
Ah, thanks. I keep forgetting McCabe replaces Berard, mostly because I think of him replacing Karpovtsev.
