    RIP Mr. Hockey

    Gordie Howe has died. Not even Wayne Gretzky can call himself Mr. Hockey.

    Yeah - Gretzky was on local sports talk radio earlier today, and even he said Gordie Howe was the greatest hockey player of all time.

    The best all-around player who ever laced them up. Was blessed to have seen him play many times when he was in the WHA (not in his prime, but good enough).

    look at the numbers from nameless players who played with Howe, Gretzsky and Lemieux their numbers are comparable to many of the greats.
