Message: [QUOTE="Dooley, post: 3178018, member: 2920"] I think if Mario played in the open ice 80s and could have stayed healthy throughout his career, your friend would be spot on. Talent wise, Lemieux was a freak. Unfortunately for him, he played in an era of neutral zone traps, hooking/interference, and a handful of stone wall goaltenders. Gretzky had a more difficult time once teams started copy catting the Florida Panthers/New Jersey Devils style of play for sure. [/QUOTE]
