mike gartner: very good player...scored 600+ goals...and if i could remember one id mention it...
dino ciccarelli: tough little SOB, never scored an easy one but seriously, there must be 20 RWs easily whose jock straps dino couldn't carry...
rod gilbert: not one of the above jock-strap owners...
glenn anderson: ditto...
larry murphy: good offensive defenceman but in no way are you gonna build your blueline around this guy...
denis savard: nice offensive player with flash but i'd take hawerchuk over him in a heartbeat AND im not convinced dale belongs either...
bob pulford: good all-around player, that's it...
really, it'll never happen but they need to designate an upper tier in the HHOF for the true select greats who played the game...
lidstrom belongs, he is one who surpassed the hordes
