WildCard Posted July 9, 2015 Report Posted July 9, 2015 Honestly, if I had to pick a too 5 of all time, I'd go: Gretzky, Howe, Lafleur, Orr, Jagr/Lemieux Quote
Taro T Posted July 9, 2015 Report Posted July 9, 2015 Honestly, if I had to pick a too 5 of all time, I'd go: Gretzky, Howe, Lafleur, Orr, Jagr/Lemieux Gretzky, Orr, Lemieux, Howe, Harvey. Pop Hasek in net and it'll beat any and all comers. (Just coincidence that the 6 best players in history gives one a starting 6 as well.) Quote

Taro T Posted July 9, 2015 Report Posted July 9, 2015 Roy Shore Coffey Richard Beliveau Eichel You want Coffey? Not sure he'd make my 3rd pair. Quote
dudacek Posted July 9, 2015 Report Posted July 9, 2015 You want Coffey? Not sure he'd make my 3rd pair. That was my second pair. You nailed the first, IMO. I think I prefer Potvin and Robinson to Coffey, Lidstrom too. But Coffey was the only who approached Orr's level offensively. Such a beautiful skater. Quote

But Coffey was the only who approached Orr's level offensively. Such a beautiful skater. But Coffey was pretty much lost in his own zone. Orr COULD play back there, he just rarely had to w/ Dallas Smith as a partner. Quote

dudacek Posted July 9, 2015 Report Posted July 9, 2015 (edited) In every season but two, from 1982 to 1996, Paul Coffey scored more than a point a game for four different teams. The two times he didn't he had 77 points in 80 games and 74 points in 76 games. The latter season he was 34 years old. He had five 100 point seasons. He was a scoring machine. And I forgot about Ray Bourque. the man deserves to be in this conversation as well. Edited July 9, 2015 by dudacek Quote

Leetch, Stevens, & Konstantinov also belong in the latter. Had he stayed healthy in his mid-20's &/or had he played in the East, I'd expect Blake would be in the latter discussion as well. Quote
Weave Posted July 9, 2015 Report Posted July 9, 2015 (edited) Orr, Gretz, Hasek, Lemieux, Howe top 3 guys changed the game. Edited July 9, 2015 by weave Quote

(Just coincidence that the 6 best players in history gives one a starting 6 as well.) I'm going to find the world's smallest ice rink and then dress Probert, Dave Shultz, Tiger Williams, Scott Stevens, Pronger, and Hextall. Granted I need that very small ice in order to guarantee your entire team is concussed. Quote

Granted I need that very small ice in order to guarantee your entire team is concussed. Just have to sprinkle some flour on the bench and your team'll be shorthanded before they even take their 1st penalty. (Probert reference for those going :huh: . ;)) Throw on top that there's no way my 5 would be intimidated w/ Howe & Harvey (not to mention a skull fracture barely slowing Gordie ;)). Other than Hextall, you got anybody that can score a goal? (After flour was sprinkled appropriately? :lol:) Quote

Other than Hextall, you got anybody that can score a goal? (After flour was sprinkled appropriately? :lol:) I'm willing to admit that my plan is a risky one. I do think I can eliminate the phyiscal game Gordie brings though. His and Probert's health pretty much cancels out, so we're down to 4-on-4. After that, all it takes is a couple of those flying elbows from my d-men and I'm looking good. I just hope you don't have an attractive weather girl in your back pocket though. That type of secret weapon will quickly reduce me to only one blue liner. Quote

Eleven Posted July 11, 2015 Report Posted July 11, 2015 I usually like to park in the Adam Ramp. It's there. I mean it. And it's named after Luke, I'm sure. (Before Lindy traumatized him.) But as ramps go, it does not even come close to the Gretzky ramp. Quote
woods-racer Posted July 11, 2015 Report Posted July 11, 2015 I'm seriously confused. It's Saturday night, so I will drink more and be back and see what any of this has to do with parking any where. Quote
woods-racer Posted July 12, 2015 Report Posted July 12, 2015 Well, at least I figured out the flour on the bench bit. But other than that white line I'm still lost on what any of this has to do with parking. Quote
MattPie Posted July 12, 2015 Report Posted July 12, 2015 (edited) Man, I wish Woods' last two posts were merged. :) Edited July 12, 2015 by MattPie Quote

IKnowPhysics Posted July 13, 2015 Report Posted July 13, 2015 I usually like to park in the Adam Ramp. It's there. I mean it. And it's named after Luke, I'm sure. It always seems like there should be a ton of parking there, but there never is. Quote
Eleven Posted July 13, 2015 Report Posted July 13, 2015 It always seems like there should be a ton of parking there, but there never is. Lindy damaged it. He backed into one of the walls at approximately 1 mph and left a tiny scratch. Quote
