Which family in which 2 or more members became professional hockey players was/is the best?

The Hulls take it here. 2 out of the 3 were outstanding and Dennis was very decent.
The Sutters were all mediocre at best.
The Staals have the potential to be.

You missed Dennis in the Hull Family...


After all tomorrow is another day...

good call Spearbelly. the Bure's are contenders. Pavel speaks for himself, but Val was/is well above average too, when he is healthy.

I'll go for the Sutters too.

Maybe it will be a good idea to add to that list the Dionne family (Marcel, Gilbert), the Mahovlich (Pete and Frank), the Stastny 1st generation (Marian, Peter, Anton), (but forget the 2nd generation Yan and Paul), the Lemieux family (Mario, and ...... yes, Alain his brother played in the NHL too! so, if the Gretzky are there, why not the Lemieux?) and the Turgeon family (Pierre and Sylvain).

Ya, the Stasny's should have been there too.

JACOB, JACOB, JACOB......TSK, TSK, TSK.
Leaving the Sutters off the list is like leaving BOOBS, BEERS and BEST hockey battles off of a PASTIME list.................How does Gretzkys make the list.The question is which "2" or more....(I guess Wayne does make up for the others)................Thinkin' Stasnys or Mahovlich's would look lovely on the list.(Or even the Russian ROCKET and POCKET)
If you look in the "Answers To Polls" guide, SUTTERS is correct. SAME question 10 yrs from now, answer might be STAALS.

I think the Staal's have a chance to rival the Sutter's in the future, but my vote is definately the Sutter's. How could they be missed?

Forgot about the Sedin's!!! They're probably the best RIGHT NOW. As for in the past how can you overlook the Sutters?

GO OIL!!! YA!!!

Holy crap! are you kidding me?!?! How could you forget the Sutters?

Toss up between Sutters and Richards. Both Richards kicked ass in a big way, both were superstars. As for the Sutters, there were more of them and while they didn't achieve the same level of professional success, all of them were at least moderately successful, so they get points for that. So I cautiously choose Sutters.

Looking forward to the Staals though. They could be a combination of Sutters/Richards!

I can't believe I'm wasting a post for this, but how about the Sutters?
