Shanny would love to show you his gold medals in International play but after he shows his 3 Cup rings obviously.

...Im sure Sundins Mark Messier Leadership Award is quite the trophy though...

And yet in their respective primes, Roenick outscored Bure.

Weird.

Again, any player will look amazing when you only consider their first 12 years, which will typically be their best by far.

lets not forget bure had to retire due to injuries. sad but true. he was one of the better players of his time. also bure had to do much of what he did by himself

it is starting to appear more and more like Zach Parise could be getting an extension in NJ.

This, after yesterday's AMAZING NEWS THAT NEVER HAPPENED where a team would be acquiring the rights to Parise and Suter?

This site really is ridiculous. I can't believe people pay for it...

i think it may just be because his sources are not exactly hockey sources, made up for hits, or they just like poking fun at him at this point

i mean think about it, his sources said that a deal between 2 teams didnt involve the players that were traded

and we know that one of his jets sources has 0 to do with the actual jets, he doesnt work for them or anything, just is a jets source

I don't think anybody is saying Shanny shouldn't be a first ballot HOFer. But Sundin isn't the reason he got knocked out.

I'm looking at a certain player with 700-odd careers points who just got in...

- Leeman4Gilmour

Should have been Sakic, Shanny, Lindros, Burns or Shero

Mats Sundin is the all-time leading scorer of any original-6 what now?

Aside from some names like GORDIE HOWE or STEVIE YZERMAN already probing this statement to be utterly ridiculous - - - let's not forget the 334 points he accumulated in QUEBEC, plus those last 28 in Vancouver.

If we subtract those, he's really down the list...

What an embarrassingly odd remark by the "commissioner."

IF parise signs with a different team other than NJ i am pretty sure it will be a team that isnt in the same division, prob not even conference

if he doesnt sign with nj then i believe it will be detroit

- dmarsden2988


I can see that, but if they are so intent on signing Suter, which seems likely, I don't see how they can afford both of them......

You do realize Bure is ahead of Gretzky in goals per game?

Modern era:

1. Mike Bossy
2. Mario Lemieux
3. Pavel Bure

One of the most electric players of all time and the best Russian of all time.

When the best players got together for the olympics and world cups, Sundin dominated. Still remember what he did to Canada....so thankful for Salo. Heck, he made Kaberle an all star, and hoglund a 25 plus goal scorer. Its shameful that he spent his entire career in Toronto without a decent first line winger, they wouldn't even play Mogilny with him.

I went this year, it's cool. I mean, it's basically a bunch of hockey gear in glass cases, but that's cool. The big trophies are all in a domed room that looks like a church, it's kind of over-the-top and funny. The major trophies don't look nearly as impressive when they're not all shined up for tv, though. Some of them kind of look like crap, but I guess they are pretty old. It is pretty cool to just hang out and study the Cup as long as you want though.
