Andy Pred 48 337 Report post Posted January 17, 2008 I was just pondering the many rumours going round as to who the Wings may be in for come deadline day. This got me thinking as to what line I would love to see play for the Wings. Well we have many great europeans in the league, and a Ovechkin Datsyuk Kovalchuk line would be awesome. But the guys that do it for me would have been a Alexander Mogilny, Sergei Fedorov and Pavel Bure line. Yes the thought of watching that line has me drooling. Yet these guys did play on the same team but were only the 3rd line!!! Yes folks, if you check out 1988-89 CSKA Moscow [Russia] roster you will see probably the greatest collection of talent ever combined on one team. If you use hockeydb.com, all the details are there. The famous KLM line led the attack and the blueline was patrolled by Alexei Kasatonov and Viacheslav Fetisov. Some names will be very familiar to you, if you get a minute take a look and just think about those lucky CSKA fans who got to watch this team play week in week out. The days of us making big moves at the deadline are over for now,thanks to the cap, so the chances of us getting a star are remote unless we give up some talent, which I hope we don't.
