Well, at some point you have to evaluate *reality*, not "what ifs" and "what
could'ves".  In reality, Gretzky was and always will be the best.  I just can't
see any argument for any player being *better* holding water.

Don't think I love Lemieux, I hated him before last year.  I've always
thought he was selfish and cry-baby.  But you have to be honest, wow, on the
ice, he is unstoppable!

Agreed! Hate him??  He *destoyed* my North Stars [1] in their one and only Cup
appearance while in MN! But I do admit that, even today, he is amazing.

[1] Of course, I hate the Stars of today because of their exit from MN-- didn't
even cheer for them in the Cup.  Now we here in MN are stuck with an expansion
team that has horrible colors, and doesn't even have a plural name-- I *hate*
that!  Long live old-time hockey!  Eddie Shore! ;-)
