Top 10 Duos in the NHL

John Grigg at The Hockey News lists out his top-10 favorite NHL duos he enjoys watching play:
10. Jason Spezza and Dany Heatley
• These guys aren’t having the best start to the year, but there’s few purer snipers in the league than Heatley and even fewer set-up men as slick as Spezza.9. Henrik Zetterberg and Johan Franzen
• This is a relatively new duo, especially with ‘The Mule’ having been hurt most of the year. But Zetterberg is magic with the puck and Franzen is a bull with hands. Together the two are dangerous whenever they’re on the ice.

Two of those duos don’t even play together. Isn’t that like picking Jarome Iginla and Miika Kipprusoff as your favourite duo?

That’s a fascinating list, Itlan. Thanks for the link. Definitely some surprises on there.

Yeah. FAIL. To be a dynamic duo you have to actually, ya know, play together.

Yeah, like Setoguchi and Thornton with 14 goals between them. Add Marleau to the mix and I think that’s the top line in the league right now.

...still doesn’t matter, because the best line ever assembled was the HMO line. Hollweg, Moore and Ortmeyer. That is all.
