Very good, lads. Yes, the stat lines are, in order, top to bottom,
Gainey (HOF despite a minus player in many of his seasons by properly adjusted +/- ),
Ramsay (8 straight 20+ goal campaigns, 8 straight 50+ points, 787 consecutive games played, 0 PIM in 1973-74),
and Carbonneau (HOF -- just, "why"?).
Ramsay was not just on par with anyone else defensively, he was better by miles.
Look again at his +/- totals, noting also that he played 90 to 240 fewer games than
the other two.
Agreed, Tkaczuk was criminally underrated. The team you're on means so much. 1975-79 Canadiens were indeed
probably the greatest team(s) ever, but c'mon, not every guy on those clubs rates as a Hall of Famer.
