Why would you? He was the greatest player ever!! An absolute beauty.
- LeftCoaster

yes.....and he's my favorite of all time.
The fact he only played 9.5 seasons and yet is 2nd all time in scoring shows his greatness.
Best player to ever put on skates

After reading all of your posts it has become quite obvious WD was fired because he was too good of a coach and would have hindered the rebuild.

he is the absolute true definition of franchise player. Pure magic.

I remember watching a documentary on gretzky and found it boring, his video footage I found 1 dimensional, same goal over and over.
THen next was a documentary on Mario, never saw the same goal twice. with back to back footage it Became obvious the difference between the 2.

Mario !!

He is better than the guy currently recognized as the best, but I believe Bobby Orr is best ever.

we will never agree on your idea of players vs coach. Quit trying to change my mind.

Player quality can have an impact in the way that it gives a coach more tools to utilize, but thats IF he uses them to their potential which is STILL on the coach.

definitely up there for sure. In top 3.
Kinda hard to compare goal scoring forwards that hold records and a defenseman.
Absolutely the greatest D ever.

Anyone have opinion on greatest goalie ever?
Hasek? Roy? sawchuk?

he's not wrong about 100% everything

He was wrong about stuff that won NHL level games though.

why do talk in such absolutes? 100 % black or white with you. You dont seem to consider everything that exists in between

- SMBDragon


I'm missing something here, it been twice now that you have criticized others for speaking in absolutes, and yet here you are speaking in absolutes about Willie as if you are more qualified than those that speak favourably about him...is that not kind of hypocritical?
