I voted for Atlanta's line.

Problem with San Jose is that their top line isn't really their top line. It's their second line, which was Michalek-Marleau-Bernier until Cheechoo got injured that dominated. I still think they have the best 5 on 3 line (Thornton, Cheechoo, Marleau, Michalek, Bernier) but the best trio there is Atlanta's with the NYR one close behind.

I agree and also voted Atlanta. I would say NYR a close second and probably TO third.

The Pittsburgh trio up there is not their top line. It's a powerplay line, but that's different. If we're just talking about the team with the three best players, well they still wouldn't get my vote...

All of these arent really lines they are just the times best three players and are not playing on a line on a night to night basis.

crosby and malkin are good, recchi is too old for that line. as for heatlye spezxa alfredson only heatly and spezza are really contributing.

when forsberg gagne and knuble are together their pretty good too.

anaheims top line should definitely be on there they are explosive.

jagr straka nylander is an awesome unit, but that's pretty much all the rangers have upfront.

Iginla, Tanguey, and Langkow have been flying lately. What about Briere, Afiniganov, and Vanek?? There are some seriously sick potential lines out there. However, my vote would go to Anahiem. McDonald, Selanne, and Kunitz are awesome. But it also helps when you have Pronger and Neidemeyer behind you. Gives you a chance to take a few more risks.

Half of these aren't lines. But yeah, the Anaheim line deserves some serious consideration.
