battleship25,

Indeed there was a party line. I did not want to list all that I found especially the Hawks. Did not to be a homer.


•"The Party line" — Chicago Black Hawks (1980s) — Denis Savard, Al Secord, and Steve Larmer. The best explanation I've found is that with their skating and scoring ability it was like a party,as they were fun to watch play night after night.

•"The Pony line" — Chicago Black Hawks (1945-48) — Max & Doug Bentley, Bill Mosienko. The pony line was named that because they were not big enough to be horses. The tallest was Max at 5'10" and the heaviest was Mosienko at 160 pounds. they were very quick. In the 45-46 season that line alone accounted for 68 goals and 81 assists.

These are two of the most famous in Hawk history. Was lucky to see the party line while it lasted.
