Edmonton Oilers: McDavid, Puljujarvi Tailored For Each Other

From 1980-81 through 1987-88, Wayne Gretzky and Jari Kurri formed the most dangerous offensive duo in the NHL. Together, they set and broke their own records en route to winning four Stanley Cups with the Oilers. Gretzky and Kurri combined for 2,380 points in 1,270 games during their eight seasons as linemates. Those are incredible numbers, even by 1980s standards.

And although we will never see another duo produce that type of offence, again, Connor McDavid and Jesse Puljujarvi could still have a similar impact with the Oilers.
