NHL Current +5 Draft Championship : Greg vs Tommy

[Mebert]

Ritzy

Based on what my wife says my name is "dipshit" or "Get off of me"

 

[broncosmitty]

Like how I personally rank them?

Yeah, I'm just curios who all you have at the top. Mostly cuz I'm ignorant. And partly because being a lifetime Wings fan is kinda like being a lifetime Yankees fan. So I prolly don't respect players that didn't come to Hockeytown at some point in their career as much as I should. (I usually assume they don't like to win.)

Seeing Dino Ciccarelli in a Red Wings jersey hurt my soul!

Does she ever check your text messages? If so, I may just start texting you what you said once an hour until she sees it.

1.Gretz
2. Bobby(orr)
3. Myself(if you know what I mean)
4. Super Mario
5. Bobby(Hull)
6. Beliveau
7. Rocket
8. The Flower
9.Bossy(I think I may overrate him a bit)
10. Shore
11. Borque
12. Mikita
13. Harvey
14. Morenz
15. Messier

I left out goalies for that. I think my top 15 is pretty consistent with what most legit lists will have(not fucking fan vote troll or bleacher report bullshit).

I do think Trottier is grossly underrated most times all time GOATS are mentioned. Hes really right in that list for me.

Chelios was the same for me. Still haven't went in his damn bar. Dude is a Hawk to me, even after all those years.

Bertuzzi actually prevented me from caring. Took the little lady to her first NHL playoff game and that Jerkface scored two goals and was first star. I sat on my hands almost the entire night.

Dino and Holmstrom were two of favorite guys. Loved watching em scrap in front of the net.

Yeah, I agree when I think Chelios I think Hawks even though I think he actually played with Detroit longer than either Chicago or Montreal

Id consider goalies on their own list. Like I would with pitchers.

Thank you for putting that list up man!

LaFleur 8? our friendship is over! And you dont overrate Bossy the guy was amazing!

 

[broncosmitty]

The guy played forever. For - EV- er. I bet you're right.

Its just really hard to put him above the other guys. Hull for instance literally had two guys on him like at all times. But honestly my 2-9 is pretty interchangeable. Clear cut top 2 and Shore is clearly behind at 10.

And yeah Bossy was amazing I just usually see him farther down in talks about greats so thats why I said I might overrate him.

I will say though, while Hasek rightfully so is a pretty big advantage I feel my 3rd and 4th line edge is overlooked.

Okposo just is too meh thus far in his career more in flashes. And panarin is having a unreal rookie year...but it isnt a full season, hes 24, hes playing with Kane(though here hes got fuckin dionne) and hes giving up about 50 lbs and 5 inches to Neal(a fucking asshole)

And Backstrom quite literally shits on richards and Little is Wheelers worse teammate.

Its all goody though

In what world is this?

 

[mr.hockey4242]

uhhhhh which case???

Because neither are really that close

I don't think you will find a Jets fan that says Little is a better player

Both.

Backstrom might be be much better than 35 year old Richards but he certainly doesn't shit on him when he was in his prime and to suggest he does is silly. I didn't say little was the better player although he probably has a better shot and he's better on the power play. But to say he's his worst teammate again is ridiculous.

 

[Nosferatu]

Question for ya.

Does anyone ever break 92 or 163?

My opinion is, someone some day could go past 92 goals but 163 assists will never be touched.

Backstrom is quite a bit better and still really just in his prime years. He's a PPG player and having that as a 4th liner is huge. He's a better passer, much better shooter, better in the face off dot. It's really not close.

Little is better on the PP but I highly doubt were using either on a PP. All I said was you had the weaker of two teammates not way worse. But wheeler is better especially with the puck.

I will however spare you the Milk +\- stats for both comparisons. While pretty egregious, it's not really a go to argument for me lol.
