Goring and Tonelli and don't forget Mr. Islander himself, Bobby Nystrom.....
Goring was definitely the final piece for the dynasty run to begin......and no one - no one was tougher on the boards than Tonelli and Nystrom.....
They don't win four in a row without those three guys.....even with the HOF talent they had at the time with Potvin, Bossy, Smith, Trottier and Gillies.....
IMHO....
