I'm going to try to say as little as possible. Let these three guys do the talking, since they're doing so well. (Although it's not as civil as a pit/pappy match-up).
LL made a good move by switching up his lines. I don't know why he thought Barnes-Oliver-Bondra was a good line to begin with. I think some guys thought he was still going with that line during the season, and it probably cost him votes.
Three big changes that LL made in this draft that will make his team better: 1) Greater emphasis on character; 2) No screw-ups on the third and fourth lines; 3) Finding players who will mesh well with his coach.
There are some scoring issues for Toronto, but those are diminished in the playoffs. Kennedy's one of the best clutch scorers ever. Elias and Roberts consistently have elevated their play in the playoffs. Armstrong was outstanding in the playoffs.
Kingston has the best 1-2 punch down the middle in the league. They lack an ace defenceman or winger, but they have depth at both positions. They have the potential for a lethal PP with Leclair-Mario-Yzerman-Wilson-Murphy.
What it comes down to is can Toronto stop Lemieux? Zezel's better defensively than FI2 makes him out to be; he was more than just a face-off ace. LL has some very, very good checkers on the wings, especially Armstrong and Nevin. But Lemieux, even at this level, can beat you by himself.
LL has an edge in goal, but this is Fuhr's time of year. Like Billy Smith, you pick Fuhr early for the right to have him at this time of year. That edge isn't as great. One thing that is great for Brodeur is the presence of Scotty Stevens. I'm a big fan of getting players who played in front of a goalie. We talk about chemistry with defencemen and forwards, but the goalie-skater relationship is really overlooked.
I know I'm in a distinct minority, but I really like Punch Imlach, if he's in the right situation. And this is the right situation. A high-character team with a great work ethic.
Ty GBC Punch had armstrong baun nevin and oliver on his teams so he know knows how to use them and they know what to do. What they do is win cups!
The bad news for my oppposition is there is no where to hide you cna run but you will be caught and your gonan pay the price!
Blake is a strong physical power gaurd with exceptional mobility.Rob can stand a opponent up at the blueline, keeps the crease clear whenever an opponent is near,patrols the corners like a policeman and hits like a is a thundering beast when he takes the body to his opponents his hits are so powerful that opposing players are afraid that they may stick to the boards like fly gook
If any oen gets near the blueline plauers like Boeschcan stoop them he was famous for the "Maginot Line Knee Drop," as he would drop to his knees to blow an enemy shots.He was one of hockey's most underrated D-men in the history of the game
Thos who dear to enter our defensive zone will be crushed by big Al Iafrate a gigantic mobile defenceman could skate like the wind, Al was a rugged d-man who could throw thunderous body checks
Stevens was a Toug, mean, monster hits, leadership,skilled, air tight defensive play, excelant shot blocker, Inspirational leader and workhorse. Scott protected the fort with his usual uncompromising ferocity during the post season but also shows a offensive flair by opening up defenses with long probing strikes.One of the games fiercest competitors Stevens handels all the toughest assignments and would set the physical tone utilizing crushing open-ice hits
Hard hitters like stevens roberts bake iafrate boesh and baun will create motivation for his team mates while deflating the opposition into submission.
Once we destroy the opposition and take the puck in to our possesion we got swift skating mobile offensive dman liek kaberle blake and stevens to get the puck to our offensive horses like viave bondra elias sundin malkin and roberts.
All that plus the soon to be winningest goalie in the history of the NHL.
Alexandrov ('Bobrov2') was one of only four Soviets to ever score 50 goals a season in Soviet league play (Bobrov, Yakushev and Petrov are the others).
Between 1965-1967 ALL three (Alexandrov, Almetov, Loktev) were each TWICE named to the world championship first all-star team. They simply were the best, together.
Here is a 
video of Alexandrov in action in an early 60's 11-2 Soviet win over a Canadian team (Maroons) in which the Canadian coach was asked late in the video which Soviet players impressed him most and he mentioned Alexandrov first (notice his skating, stickhandling and shooting in the 5-min. video):
And from page 187 of The Complete Idiot's Guide to Hockey:
your team has just 3 players that are decorated
