Bleacher Report's Top 15 Lines

[Fappin Raptor]

Id take burrows on my team over heatley regardless of the salaries.
Defense matters to me.

[killgod]

He put up 50 goals and 100 points 4 fuckin years ago.
Heatley and Burrows' offensive numbers last year are not far apart at all and burrows is 1000 times better defensively.

If were going career wise...then yes, Heatley and his linemates are better.
If its based on last year...im giving it to Burrows on the Sedins.

are you that retarded?

I'm sorry Heatley's only scored 129 goals in the 3 seasons since then....., points that Burrows will never fucking achieve because he's 2nd line talent (at best)

The top lines on nhl lineups are for point-a-game players, not guys who average less than half you schmuck.

[Senators26]

Burrows may not be a 1st line talent but he's a VERY good 2nd liner.

[killgod]

What dont you understand about my arguement?
I'm not going by what happened 3 years ago.
I'm going by last year.
Burrows was a better player last year.

What don't you understand about this being a discussion about the most talented line?

It's not like these guys are going to be carbon copies of the 09/10 season for the rest of their lives.

[killgod]

Where in the article does it say it is based on talent?
Yea the Sharks are the more talented line, but that doesnt mean they are the best.

I'm done with this retardation.

You're trying to argue a line who's done it once, with a 2nd line player that is peaking, vs 3 elite superstars who produce amongst the top 20 in the league and have consistently throughout their careers and are still in their prime.

What the fuck ever.

:elephant:

[Boss AZ]

Any line with Cheechoo on it. He once scored 56 goals. :club:

[PEYMAN18]

I'll have to disagree with that lineup and I don't think they'll do that.

Franzen - Datsyuk - Holmstrom
Zetterberg - Hudler/Filppula - Bertuzzi

Those two lines would be better for us.

Those two lines you posted would be good but I belive Detroits lines this year are

Zetterberg-Datsyuk-Holmstrom
Franzen-Filppula-Tuzzi
Helm-Hudler-Abdelkader <--- I LOVE this line
Cleary-Draper-Eves/Miller

I could also see a Zetterberg-Datsyuk-Cleary line, Our team is still crazy deep and thats without the potential addition of Modano.

I see what you are saying but you can't argue that the San Jose line was more effective than the Vancouver line this past season. Obviously in terms of talent and career stats the San Jose line is the clear cut winner but this entire article is based off what happened this past year.

[Fappin Raptor]

This is a list for the top line, not the most productive in terms of points.

Seriously man. Stop watching hockey.
I hate Heatley, I think he bailed on Ottawa in the worst way, but Burrows is not and never will be within 10 metres of Heatley in the 100-metre dash.

Guys like you should just put on your jersey, pretend to know something about hockey and just slam the glass during fights.

Seriously, stop arguing here. A dog never catches his tail, no matter how hard he or she tries.

Only way a defensive forward is Heatley's equal or better is if he's Bob Gainey. Burrows is no Bob Gainey.

Datsyuk is a pretty good defensive forward as well.

[dave]

Datsyuk is better than Heatley. That's not even a comparison, but Burrows? Geez.

[Fappin Raptor]

So based on one year you'll take Burrows over Heatley? GTFO.

Watch the playoffs before you attempt to pull shit out of your ass.

Thornton was our 2nd best forward in the playoffs (behind Pavelski), he was skating hard, throwing his body around, we saw a different Thornton in the playoffs. He was absolutely unstoppable in the Detroit series (GWG in game 2), GW assist to Marleau in Game 3, tied up the game and also got the GW assist in Game 4).

Heatley played with a torn groin, he wasnt skating and he couldnt get open whenever Thornton had the puck. But he did put up 13 points, and he showed some heart, that's all you can ask for. Heatley has 12 G, 36 A, 48 points in 48 playoff games... That's far from choking.

I agree with Drake about Marleau. He was invisible in the Colorado series, he wasnt moving his feet and couldnt hit the net for shit. Marleau showed up in the Detroit and Chicago series'. He scored the GWG in Game's 3 and 5 and scored 5 goals in 4 games in the Chicago series. And yet you call him a choker...

...Stick to the Leafs and actually watch a playoff game next year if you're going to bash the Sharks. And I'm not going to bother responding to this dumbass Bruins fan who thinks Burrows is better than Heatley. At least talk when Burrows has two 50 goal seasons.

Umm fanboy, how many times has your team won the cup? That's right, zero. The team has been stacked with talent and ripped teams apart in the regular season yet get knocked out of the playoffs every year and never win. Sorry, no stats you give will change that or excuses you make will matter. Your team still can't make the big leap into the cup finals.

There's a lot of words there. A lot of pretty stupid and dumb words. Next time you goto reply don't go onto wikipedia or something to read about games, actually use an opinion.

PS. Don't use the watch games excuse. I probably watched more games this year then you have in your life lol.
