Gerry Cheevers went over the WHA for 4 years after the 2nd cup in 1972. probably cost the Bruins another Cup or two. They badly outplayed Philly in 1974 and lost in the final for example. Bernie Parent was putting up one of the greatest goalie performances of all time though, so they needed some amazing goal-tendering to compete.

Keep in mind that the 2000 decade was only 9 years long, and yet Martin Brodeur holds the record for most wins in a decade...

Dave Schultz was the king of the "Broad Street Bullies," a team that almost literally fought their way to two straight Stanley Cups in 1974 and 1975 and ushered in a new era of violence in hockey.

Schultz still holds the NHL single-season record for penalty minutes in a season with 472. In the Stanley Cup playoffs in 1974, "The Hammer" added 139 minutes in the sin bin in just 17 games.

Schultz would mentally prepare himself for fights, envisioning his likely opponents before taking to the ice. When he fought, he broke into a rage that didn't end until long after the game was over.

Predictably, Schultz became a fan favorite in Philadelphia and the player the rest of the league's fans loved to hate.

Many enforcers have followed, but none of them changed the way the position is played like Dave Schultz.

There's no question, Selanne was greatest goal scorer in NHL history. At least, if judged by their rookie year.
