I don't even follow hockey like that, but how the hell is Gretzky that far ahead of 2nd place? That's insane.

I don't even follow hockey like that, but how the hell is Gretzky that far ahead of 2nd place? That's insane.

It's really comical. The gap between him and his peers was Ruth or Wilt like. He has more assists than anyone else has points and more goals than anyone else either. Messier was off to a brilliant ten year run before getting hurt, but Gretzky played about 20 years while always getting big numbers. It's really ridiculous when you look at his numbers next to the other greats of his era.

Jagr is a Don

 

[Greenhornet]

salute the don

id like to hear some of those not obeying traffic law stories

 

[MikelArteta]

The great one , had like 5 straight 200 point seasons

Lemieux was probably the only one who could have broken Gretzky's scoring records, but cancer and injuries shortened his career.

Even.a old ass Gretzky in his final year was almost a point per game guy.


Crazy thing Gretzky was like 6feet 170lbs,

I don't even follow hockey like that, but how the hell is Gretzky that far ahead of 2nd place? That's insane.

 

[MikelArteta]

Fitness and awareness.

Michael Schumacher.

If you count auto racing that is, wouldn't blame you if you didn't.

 

[MikelArteta]

Wayne Gretzkys worst season also his last was 62 points in 70 games

Not even just a contact sport, but how fast it is.
