All-Time Quebec Provincial Team

[ScottM]

 

We move east from Ontario and into Francophone Quebec, which boasts the second-highest amount of NHL'ers. As you might expect, this team would be quite capable of going toe to toe with the Ontario team, and would have a very real shot at winning an international tournament.

 

First Line: Luc Robitaille, Mario Lemieux, Maurice Richard

Second Line: Michel Goulet, Jean Beliveau, Mike Bossy

Third Line: Dickie Moore, Bill Cowley, Guy Lafleur

Fourth Line: Rick Martin, Marcel Dionne, Bernie Geoffrion

 

First Defensive Pair: Doug Harvey, Ray Bourque

Second Defensive Pair: Pierre Pilote, Sprague Cleghorn

Third Defensive Pair: Butch Bouchard, Marcel Pronovost

 

Goaltenders: Jacques Plante, Martin Brodeur, Patrick Roy

 

At forward, Ontario's relative strength was at left wing and its relative weakness on the right side. (I say relative because there's really nothing weak in these teams at all.) For Quebec, that is reversed. There is one non Hall of Fame member on the left wing for this team, but honestly, who wouldn't want to put Rick Martin out on the ice. As with the Ontario team, this team is loaded at defense and in net. Good luck scoring on this bunch.

  If heaven indeed were to let you enjoy the best things in life, I'd order up a Team Quebec vs Team Ontario series,.,, all athletes in their prime...imagine that war?
