Henri and Maurice Richard

Montreal Canadiens, 1955-60

Hockey's greatest brother duo teamed up to help the Habs win a record five consecutive Stanley Cups. Maurice, otherwise known as "Rocket", was renowned for his wild-eyed intensity and prolific goal-scoring. The smaller Henri (hence his nickname "Pocket Rocket") was a slick playmaker and considered the more complete player. After Rocket's retirement in 1960, Henri went on to win another six Cups, for a record total of 11.
