Bigjack you and I have had a few disagreements before (Adam Graves is one) but for what I call one of the young posters you have a ton of knowledge and I respect your opinion like no other .

When you say 700 players is today's NHL you are right on the money on how watered down the talent is today as compared to the six team era .

Ask your dad if this is not fact , in the six team era teams carried 9 forwards 5 d-men and one goaltender , that's 15 players on each team , 6 teams 90 players in the NHL and the whole world to pick that 90 players from .

Their are not 90 players in the game today that could make up 6 teams of the caliber of player that played back then !!!

Just the Opinion of an Old Fart !!!!!
