Easily 05-06.

52 goals, 106 points from Ovechkin.

101 assists and 130 points from Thornton (on pace for)

54 goals, 123 points from Jagr.

Massive forwards these guys were/are. Power forwards. Best in the game at the time. Thornton being one of the best play makers of the last decade would have worked beautifully with these two guys given they broke 50 goals and 100 points no problem. All three of those guys will probably make the HOF. Jagr obviously will at least.

Two HOF defensemen on the back end.

And of course Kipper, who was always underrated, with a godly 2.07 and .923

05-06.

Ovechkin, still before his best but still dominant. Jumbo Joe at his best. Jagr after his best but still dominant. All 100+ points, 2 50+ goals, all guys over 6'3 and 230 pounds. Explosive, versatile, talented, and strong.

Then. 2 of the smoothest defencemen to ever play. Lidstrom and Nieds...nuff said.

Kipper's become less relevant now, but he was in his prime and absolutely amazing in the mid-2000s. Not just a great goalie, a "put-mediocre-teams-on-ma-back-carry-them-to-finals (as much as I hate them, Calgary were the rightful champions that year...they got robbed on that no-goal call)."
