Move to List of famous Ice hockey linemats? // [[User:Sander of Sweden| S A N D E R O F S W E D E N | 讲话]] 17:36, 2004 Nov 20 (UTC)
I think another famous line that should be add is the Vancouver Canucks "West coast Express" line that includes markus naslund, bertuzzi, and morrison.
Are there exact qualifications that a line must meet before it can be dubbed a "Famous" line, and not simply a "Current" line? Is there a number of seasons, a degree of notoriety (statistically or otherwise), or some media coverage that will make a line (such as the CASH Line) a "Famous" line? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.54.138.240 ( talk) 02:45, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
I have divided the list into widely acknowledged (and historically) famous lines and more locally remembered (or current) lines.-- Mogilny 12:10, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
I have integrated material from the List of hockey nicknames page-- Mogilny 11:35, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
Yes, please clean away... As for sourcing - and "Nitro" and "Dynasty" (and "Trio Grande") were not part of my childhood memories - I came across these on a website by Pat Houda, "The Best North American Lines of the 1970s" online at: http://www.chidlovski.com/personal/1974/liners/na70s.htm
His bio-blurb says that he is a contributor to The NHL Guide and Record Book, and that he is a member of Society for International Hockey Research and the Hockey Research Association. The website says he is member of the Society for International Hockey Research, and the Swedish Icehockey Historical and Statistical Society (I kid you not). I am obviously curious as to where he got these from.
"The Bicentennial Line" is on an old hockey card that I recently found.-- Mogilny 20:08, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
So it would seem, except for the "LCB Line." I have the O-Pee-Chee 1976-77 Card (#215). Other "line" cards included in that set: #214 French Connection; #216 Long Island Lightning Company; #217 Checking Line (Bob Gainey, Jim Roberts and Doug Jarvis); #218 Bicentennial Line.-- Mogilny 21:59, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
I think we should separate the famous lines, to pre 90s and post 90s, to suit it to people who are new to hockey, and only know more recent players.
I have put all current lines in short-lived category (and added "current" to the heading. I say if they stand the test of time, they can move to the first category.-- Mogilny 00:06, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
Question - Were Stan Mikita and Bobby Hull ever on the same line together? I thought they were, but there are Mikita lines and Hull lines listed here, and they're not together. Maybe they just weren't named. Also, the other winger - Phil Esposito? Ken Hodge? Eric Nesterenko? Kenny Wharram? NjtoTX 03:04, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
There's a few good examples from Elitserien with some famous nicknames. I can add them but just wanted to see if there's any interest in it or is the SEL to far off? -- Krm500 12:33, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
Krutov-Larionov-Makarov - Green line? What are green jerseys? Both USSR and CSKA always used red (or white) jerseys, never green! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Greutungen ( talk • contribs) 12:57, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
Many of the lines listed as "famous" are just recent/current lines that have been together for a season or less and certainly aren't "famous." The "ESP line" for NJ were together for what, a month or two early this season? Daemonw ( talk) 01:49, 23 May 2012 (UTC)daemonw
Any of the lines from the last few years whose nicknames aren't household names should be moved to the recent/short lived section
Lines should be listed as left wing-centre-right wing, as that's how they align on the ice. Looking at the lines listed, there doesn't seem to be any convention here--they are listed in any old order. I realize sometimes people don't know who the centre was, but he should be the name in the middle. Djob ( talk) 11:47, 10 April 2013 (UTC)

The Crazy Eights are listed twice. (Once as The Crazy 8s.)
Second, The Sesame Street line, Oscar is the Grouch, so it's probably Oscar, Ernie and Big Bird.

I'm taking out all of the unsourced entries. Also propose that any entry here be required to have at least 2 reliable sources noting its existence. JimKaatFan ( talk) 16:13, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
What should the minimum requirement be for listing an ice hockey line in this article? (these are in order, from most restrictive requirements to least restrictive)
JimKaatFan ( talk) 23:52, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
I adjusted my vote based on convincing arguments from Echoedmyron and Kaiser matias. By caveat, I mean that lines that are currently in the article (before we had this discussion) without their own article should probably stay, as I feel most (if not all of them) could have their own article. If someone wants to add a line here that doesn't have an article, then the answer should be "yes" if there's enough material to justify a standalone article. If there is, let's start that article first and then add the line here. JimKaatFan ( talk) 19:32, 17 September 2020 (UTC)
This is for HickoryOughtShirt?4, Kaiser matias, and Echoedmyron. When you said "A" and "B", did you mean both criteria have to be met? Because if "A" is met, then "B" would probably already have been met, I would think. Or did you mean that either would be okay with you? JimKaatFan ( talk) 16:57, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
I don't feel comfortable editing the main article since I'm 1.anonymous and 2.the article has some significant discussion going on about what qualifies noteworthiness in terms of this article. That being said, may I suggest adding the Merlot Line from the early 2010s Bruins? Contemporary source: https://www.nbcsports.com/boston/report-bs-make-extension-offers-merlot-line-kelly Current-day source: https://thehockeywriters.com/boston-bruins-merlot-line/ 73.231.143.107 ( talk) 05:31, 8 June 2020 (UTC)
Why is LCB line not listed. It was featured on a hockey card or doesn't that count. Kevinskogg ( talk) 22:34, 16 September 2020 (UTC)
Hi all, I converted what was a bulleted list into a sortable table. I hope this makes the article more easily navigable, and makes it easier to figure out which lines need more explanation/citation. I did not add any information that was not present in the prior article (e.g. team, era) so it's now apparent which entries are more sparse.
I included "League" as a column as there's been discussion about how most of these lines are from the NHL & it also might be helpful for sorting, but I'm not totally sure it's the best way to allow for that. Let me know if you have thoughts!
