Pizza Line - Heatley, Alfredsson and Spezza for the Ottawa Senators. After the lockout every time the Sens scored 5 or more in a home game they would give out free pizza coupons.

Was going to post that one. Like a line change in hockey; 5 men on 5 men out. Two complete units. Perry had some success with those teams.

Desert Swarm. Arizona Defense in mid 90's Bruschi was most known player. I don't consider them unheralded but some have no clue how good they were.
