The Great one
Orr
You lose.

I'd take Mario over both those guys in a heartbeat...if he played in todays era he'd get 400 points.

Happ has been good..hope they can get another 3+ War season out of him.
Has earned the start

When does the Snoozefest begin?

162 games....(frank), that's a long old season.

Agreed. Most dominant player ever.

And he's not.
Several cups
Best player at van Olympics I believe.
Best or top two player in the league for several years.
According to most in hockey.
Not overrated at all.....at the time.

Just another standard news day

Agreed. Most dominant player ever.

Except Gretzky.

Kopitar is barely worth 10 million rubles, let alone dollars.

80 point bum.

Hopefully the Raps and Leafs can keep us busy until June. We should know if the Jays' season will be over by then.

Worst contract in the NHL.

Except Gretzky.
- Atomic Wedgie

Can't deny the stats (except maybe Points per game) favor Gretzky.

Still think Lemieux was simply.... perfect.

I agree that he's earned it. I just think that Sanchez is our best pitcher when healthy and I'd like to see him get Opening Day. Especially since the Yankees are a strong righty team.

I'm still always curious to see how Lindros would have looked if he never got concussed in the historical discussion. I really can't think of a player more "gifted" with everything you need to succeed outside of maybe Pronger.

I just look at how far above Gretzky was compared to the next best guy when he was in his prime.

One year Gretzky has more assists than the next guy had points.

But yeah, can't really go wrong with either.

You can't really compare him to Lemieux and Gretzky, though.

Oh poop, when he was in his prime, he was so much fun to watch.

Except Gretzky.
- Atomic Wedgie

no

he could carry Wayne around and still score 50 goals/yr

It'll be an interesting year. Stronger outfield but seemingly more question marks in the infield/pitching now.

must be a boring sports day if you're debating gretzky vs lemieux.

Enjoy boys, I'm gonna get some shut-eye so I'm refreshed when I wake up in Cali

It's nice not seeing the Toronto Maple Leafs among those teams

Go Leafs Go

No clinch scenario for us yet though

What was the number Wedgie? 10?

If it is 10, I think Leafs can clinch Saturday assuming they win until then and FLA loses until then.

If we miss the playoffs, I'm ordering a Karlsson jersey.

- Atomic Wedgie

It's all conjecture anyways, as the best player in the world is Iguchi Aito.

I'd take Mario over both those guys in a heartbeat...if he played in todays era he'd get 400 points.
- Garnie

If this if that. Same could be said about the great one....only he'd get more.

But we'll never know for sure
