All together he is a better player but Gretzky was more dominant in his era

No Stanley Cup, no GOAT status
Not like he didn't get his chances
He's better than Gretzky in absolute terms since the game has developed. But legacy-wise and in relation to his era, Gretzky shits on him

Gretzky played on a stacked team that won the cup without him a year after he was traded.

LMFAO no he ain't. He's not even the best player in the league today. If the refs didn't coddle him he'd get bootyblasted in the first round every year

yeah this edmonton team are probably relocated by now without connor and i also dont recall any instances of gretzky not getting MVP when he clearly deserved it which has happened multiple times with mcD

>>152927426
He only has one 50 goal season

crosby better than both

>>152929173
not a shooter and tries walking every goal into the net it's amazing he even gets 30

>>152927426
needs crosgod to drag him to a gold medal this year to finally win something because he can't get the job done i'm afraid

Last year he won Gary's prestigious 4 Nation world Championships.

The Oilers PMO so much.

I've never seen a team get absolutely gifted so many chances at "Getting it right" only to completely fumble. Hall, Nugent-Hopkins, Yakupov and McDavid. 4 1st overall picks in 5 years is insane. Not to mention a 3rd overall pick in 2014.

At least the Penguins had success after getting lucky in the draft. 2003 they moved up from third to first to draft Fleury, lost out on Ovechkin and got lucky with Malkin 2nd overall and finally got Crosby in 2005 and Staal in 2006. The thing is even if they missed out on Crosby in 2005, Bobby Ryan was still a solid player and they probably take Toews in 06. That still probably wins a Cup or two. Meanwhile McMeme lost back to back Cups.
