Forwards

Johnny Bucyk-Patrice Bergeron-Rick Middleton
Brad Marchand-Phil Esposito-Cam Neely
Wayne Cashman-David Krejci-Terry O’Reilly
Don Marcotte-Shawn Thornton-Ken Hodge

Honorable Mentions: David Pastrnak, Milan Lucic, Woody Dumart, Sergei Samsonov.

Analysis:
It is so tough to narrow the forwards for Boston to just 12 skaters, as so many players have contributed in so many ways.

From recently retired Patrice Bergeron winning a record six Selke Awards, to Terry “Taz” O’Reilly terrorizing players left and right with his physicality on the ice during his years where he was known as the Tazmanian Devil.

There’s almost too many to chose from here, especially with 100 years to chose from, but in order to combine the best of the best from each era, this is what I came up with.
