Wayne Gretzky - Sportsman

Uploaded by: 16nine
Video Description:
Even though ice hockey is a regional sport with only a handful of countries in the top flight, there are legends associated with the game. Gretzky is up there with all the greats of others sports, Pele, Borg, Cruyff, you name it. It's a cheesy little film - as only Americans can make cheesy films - heavy on the syrupy soundtrack - but it is cool and inspirational.
This film is freely downloadable from the Hockey Hall of Fame website.

Why Gretzky can ... ( 1 month ago by squannacook)

Why Gretzky can never be called the best all-around player ever.
Gretzky's Stats:
Checks Avoided = All of them
Knocked Someone Else on Ass = Zero
Fights Won = Zero
End to End Rushes = Million less than Orr
Shots Blocked = Zero
Help Teammate in Fight = Never
ChickenSh*t = Always
Check out the beginning of the Bobby Orr Eruption video or the Bobby Orr Bouts video to see an all-around KICK ASS (not KISS ASS like Gretzky) hockey player. There can be only one-ORR!

Any list without ... ( 1 month ago by a3her)

Any list without Orr on it is invalid (it would be like me not putting Gretzky in the top 10) speaking of Gretzky..

A true hockey fan will research carefully before making a list..even if they are only 14..lest they get called on their foolishness.
Thanks for your opinion..we will file it accordingly in the circular file.

Sounds about right if you are 22..most anyone over 45 says different. Such is life..Orr was simply hard to believe. I love Gretzky and Mario but they simply could not dominate the game in all zones the way Orr did.

Interesting..I love it when one guy talks about Orr winning the scoring race is like a pitcher winning the home run race..Ruth was a 2x world series winning pitcher and he won the home run title 12 times. Both were simply unbelievably dominant in their respective sports.

Gretzky was a phenomen

well we had it happen more than ones in a millenium. Jordan did it in basketball while gretzky did it on the ice. i did not have the chance to watch him and im sad that i didnt have that option.

Array ( 1 week ago by NhLnBaMuSiC)

youre right
but what i meant is that only ones in a century a player is allowed to dominate his sport just as they did
