So the top 3 forwards all finished at plus 57 or higher.
best I can tell these are the other teams that have done this
75-76 Habs (Lafleur, Shutt, Mahovlich) (result: Stanley Cup champs)
76-77 Habs (Lafleur, Shutt, Lemaire) (Stanley Cup champs)
84-85 Oilers (Gretzky, Kurri, Krushelnyski) (Stanley Cup champs)
75-76 Flyers (Clarke, Leach, Barber) (lost in finals to Habs- above- were champs in 74 and 75)
78-79 Isles (Trottier, Bossy, Gillies) (Lost in semifinals. Won next 4 cups)
70-71 Bruins (Esposito, Hodge, Cashman, Westfall) (lost to MTL- team with 10 HOFers, won cup in 70 and 72)
so turns out it is good teams that have this happen
