    I'm concerned.

    He should have rested more after the first one. Strokes can be tiring.

    Thanks for the update, Starman.

    Not the greatest player in the history of the game but the most underpaid. Jack Adams and Bruce Norris were not only tightwads but liars.

    He may not be the greatest player in the league but you could make the argument that he's definitely top 3.

    Orr
    Gretzky
    Howe

    There are about four players who could be officially named GOAT without me being able to argue all that passionately against it:

    In no particular order:

    Orr
    Gretzky
    Howe
    Lemieux

    Beliveau had a better career than Rocket Richard.

    I once took a leak next to Gordie Howe in Nassau Coliseum in 1984. It was game 5 of
    iconic Ranger/ Islander series for Patrick Division Championship. Don Maloney scored
    with 39 seconds left in 3rd period to put game into OT. Ken Morrow scored in OT for Islanders. As soon as Morrow scored we both raced for tunnel and almost ran into each other heading to mens room. Nassau Coliseum was a dump even back in '84 . Tight mens rooms with not a lot of stalls and lines built up fast.

    Boy, you're really going for the asshole hall of fame on this one, aren't you? Wasn't your induction already a slam dunk?

    I'm concerned but know that I will never top you as being the biggest board
    a-hole.

    Ironic that starman is butt hurt about a thread not going the way he wants.

    Detroit sports radio reporting that Gordie Howe is up and walking in rehab.

    Amazing if true.
