This is why Chris Jericho has an entire chapter in his first book to talk about when he met the guy and got to hold the trophy. Chapter was called Canadian Jesus. The broken arcade game score is dead on.Only lemeiux could match Gretzky
Gretzky and his 200 point seasons

I couldn't even match Gretzky's stats when I played videogames
Crazy thing that whole team was eating, Coffey was scoring like 40 goals as a dman, kurri was scoring like 60, messier like 50, Anderson like 40 goals
And Gretzky was the gawd
He was only like 6 feet 170lbs, didn't even skate fast. Didn't have a hard shot or the Brett hull wrist.
Even a flabby n sick Gretzky was a ppg player
His last season was his worst and he had 60 points in 70 games
Makes a pretty compelling argument for greatest pro athlete ever, especially when you consider how hard it is to get good at hockey. My cousins played when they were little through some college and they can say first hand the ones who become great basically leave the crib as a baby with skates on. Takes an insane amount of work. Just at the all time points even minus all his goals. I forgot about that. It's as absurd as Babe Ruth's numbers next to his contemporaries, and he was hitting more homers than most teams were on his own.The craziest Gretzky stat to me is that if you take away his goals he'd still have the most points all-time based on assists alone.

Most career points: 2,857
Consider this: The last player to have more than 140 points in one season was Mario Lemieux, who put up 160 in 1995-96. Twenty seasons of averaging 140 points wouldn't be enough to catch Gretzky's career record.
Most career assists: 1,963
The NHL has never seen the likes of Gretzky as a playmaker, and it may never see one again. It often seemed like No. 99 had eyes in the back of his head -- that's how good he was at finding teammates for what turned into easy goals. His assist total is 714 more than runner-up Ron Francis -- and he has more assists than any other player has points.
the blackhawks starting 5 though...
back when hockey was on espn so they would actually spend a fair amount of time on NHL rather than talk about lebron and now steph curry ad nauseum
change the regulations against goalies wearing pads that cover the whole dam net...its a new game nowadays tho so im not sure that would even boost someone past. the talent is just too great now and deep (and that goes across all sports) as well.
Imagine being an Oilers fan back then shyt had to be epic to witness live straight dream team for real
