Wow, great stuff!

I remember in Peter Gzowski's wonderful The Game Of Our Lives (1981), he suggests that the 1980-81 Oilers were surely the youngest NHL team ever, but that such a thing wasn't historically recorded. Well, it is recorded now and... he was right -- at the time, they were!

Actually, the 1981 playoff Oilers (listed above as the youngest playoff team ever) could be considered even younger in that their only player over 30 (goalie Gary Smith) barely played at all (he played in one period of the playoff).

If nothing else, the lists certainly support my theory that the main reason scoring went up at the dawn of the 1980s is that the NHL was going through a "youth rules" movement, where very young players were given top roles, not only at forward but on defence and in goal. (Young players tending to be bad at defence.)

The lists also support my theory that Ken Holland loves his gray-beards. After the 1960s, the top five or six oldest clubs are all 2000s-era Red Wings...

I didn’t even realize you also posted playoff rosters’ stats before checking this up on the oldest and youngest regular season teams:

Based on those numbers, the 1947-48 Red Wings are the youngest cup finalists, and the 1951-52 Red Wings the youngest champions.

The 1921-22 Habs are the oldest finalists, but the 2007-08 Red Wings are the oldest champions, and the oldest finalists followed by Detroit in 2001-02 (champs) and 2008-09 (losers).

It’s interesting that since 1921-22, the Red Wings both hold the three oldest rosters of eventual cup finalists, and the two youngest rosters of cup finalists!

The Panther · Saturday at 10:44 AM

The 1957-58 (regular season) Maple Leafs stand out a bit as a very young team in that era. They finished in 4th and missed the playoffs, with the worst defence in the League.

There wasn't a single regular player on the roster who was over 30. Center Tod Sloan turned 30 at season's start and was the oldest regular.

Of the 15 players who played 50+ games, 11 were 25 or younger.
