1977 Montreal Canadiens: The Best Team Of The Dynasty Years
The 1977 Montreal Canadiens had wrested control of the Stanley Cup away from the Philadelphia Flyers in the 1976 Stanley Cup Finals and Montreal had no intention of giving it back. This season was one long coronation for the Canadiens as they dominated the regular season, had the major award winners, and then romped through the playoffs, going 12-2 en route to a second straight Cup.
