The 1984–85Edmonton Oilers season was the Oilers' sixthseason in the NHL, and they were coming off a Stanley Cup championship in 1983–84. Edmonton would win their fourth-straight Smythe Division title, and repeat as Stanley Cup champions, losing only 3 games in the entire playoffs while out scoring their opponents 98-52. On June 5, 2017, this team was voted by fans as the greatest NHL team ever, as part of the NHL's centennial celebrations.[1]
For the fifth consecutive (and final) season, the Oilers scored over 400 goals (401) in a season; the Oilers remain the only NHL franchise in history to score 400+ goals in a season.[2] The Oilers also let in 298 goals, their fewest since the 1981–82 season. The Oilers started the season with an NHL record 15-game unbeaten streak (12–0–3).
Wayne Gretzky earned 208 points, breaking the 200 point mark for the third time (of four) in his career; Gretzky remains the only NHL player in history to score 200+ points in a season.[3] Gretzky won his fifth straight Art Ross Trophy, and his sixth consecutive Hart Trophy. Jari Kurri scored a career-high 71 goals and 135 points, and won the Lady Byng Trophy. Paul Coffey had 121 points (37 goals, 84 assists) en route to his first Norris Trophy win, of three in his career. On December 26, 1984, Coffey was the last defenceman in the 20th Century to score four goals in one game. It occurred in a game versus the Calgary Flames.[4]
In goal, Grant Fuhr and Andy Moog split time, with Fuhr leading the Oilers in wins with 26, while Moog led the team with a 3.30 GAA.

Playoffsedit
In the playoffs, the Oilers swept past the Los Angeles Kings and the Winnipeg Jets in the first 2 rounds. Edmonton ran into a bit of a problem with the Chicago Black Hawks in the Conference Finals, as the teams split the first 4 games, with each team winning two at home, however, the Oilers won the next 2 games and advance to their 3rd straight Stanley Cup Finals. After losing the opening game of the Stanley Cup Finals against the Philadelphia Flyers, the Oilers stepped up their play and won the next 4 games to win their 2nd straight Stanley Cup. Wayne Gretzky won the Conn Smythe Trophy for the first time in his career, as he scored an NHL record 47 points (17G-30A) in the playoffs.
