Details
The Kraut line was a trio of Boston Bruins hockey players who played on the same NHL forward line: center Milt Schmidt, left wing Woody Dumart, and right winger Bobby Bauer. The name was devised by Albert Leduc, a player for the Montreal Canadiens, while the trio were playing for a Boston farm club in 1936; initially, "The Sauerkraut Line", the nick name was shortened later to "The Kraut Line". This referenced the German descent of the three players, all of whom grew up in Kitchener, Ontario, where they played for the Kitchener Greenshirts. The trio played almost 1,900 NHL games with the Boston Bruins but put their careers on hold during WWII to serve in the Royal Canadian Air Force. They were one of the most dominant lines of any era, having finished first, second, and third in scoring during the 1939-1940 season, a feat repeated only once, by the 1944-1945 Punch line.
