29. Wayne Gretzky and Jari Kurri
Pair Wayne Gretzky with any above-average NHL player, and you get a legendary duo. Team him up with a Hall of Famer like Jari Kurri, and it’s game over. Gretzky is the all-time NHL leader in goals and assists, and he holds dozens of additional records that likely won’t ever be broken.
Kurri was an impressive player in his own right, earning nine All-Star selections and leading the NHL in scoring in 1986. The sharpshooting duo went on to win four Stanley Cup championships for the Edmonton Oilers. As great as this duo was, it wasn’t even the best duo Gretzky had been a part of in his career.
