Edmonton's Emergence | How The Great One Turned The Oilers Into A DYNASTY

Once upon a time, the Oilers were the NHL's model franchise. In fact, almost 40 years ago, humble, unassuming Edmonton was home to one of the most dominant dynasties in hockey history - one that took flight by vanquishing another in the unforgettable 1984 Stanley Cup Finals.

It's a great little video, but a few minor corrections: -- Gretzky wasn't 1st in WHA scoring in 1978-79 -- he was third. -- "Moog" rhymes with "rogue". -- "Sutter" brothers, not "Suter". -- In the first round in 1984, the Oilers beat Winnipeg 3 games to 0, not 4 to 0 (it was a best of five then).

I honestly thought I'd been hearing "Moog" and "Sutter" wrong all those years. In this case it is indeed the kids who are wrong.

Good video but maybe ask someone who knows hockey to help you with the pronunciation of certain names (Moog and Sutter).

@Thraith 11 ай бұрын

Exactly what I was going to say. It's clear he's never watched a single video and heard their names.

Gretzky was great no doubt. Seems people forget that Wayne played with 7 other Hall of Fame players. Not sure how many goals he would of had without Kurri.

@thebullfighter6733 2 ай бұрын

Kuri, messier, Fuhr, Coffey, Andersen, Lowe. That’s 5 skaters and a goalie. 2 D. No forwards drafted higher than the 3rd round and only Kurri played on his line (literally every team in the NHL passed on Kurri, messier and Anderson multiple times). Mario had Kevin Stevens, Murphy, barasso, trottier, jagr, Mullen, Francis, Coffey, recchi. 8 hall of famers and an all star on one roster. Mario had more help and nobody faults him for his teammates.

Just goes to show how Edmonton was good as they even won the cup without 99. I can't imagine what would Mario would have done if that same route would've happened to him. Without the Cancer and the back pains. But again we can only imagine.

Keep in mind that Gretzky had more than double the points of any other Oiler in 1981 and also 1982. In 1982, Gretzky outscored 2nd place Anderson by a ridiculous 107 points and 3rd place Coffey by a mind boggling 123 points. His 120 assists alone were enough to destroy everyone’s point total. Yet he still scored an insane 92 goals on top of that almost as an afterthought. His 92 goals alone were enough to beat everyone in points besides Anderson. Craziness.
