Gordie Howe will never be forgotten

[@brianfeeney9493]

Grew Up in Detroit with a Canadian Father ..... Wore a small #9 on Every sweater I ever played in ....... He was My IDOL ..... other than My Father !!!!! 🇺🇸💫🇨🇦💫 🏒 ✨# 9 ✨🏒

[@dougbrowne9890]

For me, Gordie will always be the greatest of all time. Only got to see him play near the end, but that is enough for me. He IS a legend. He IS Mr. Hockey.

[@wavyamar]

These commercials are really bringing me back into the past.

[@ronbonora7872]

Both Gordie Howe and Rocket Richard are icons in the world of hockey!

[@kellynorthcott7005]

This is one of the best hidden gems on Gordie.

[@markdemell3717]

I thought we were poor ,14 of us . Respect to Gordie ,he was an Iron man.

[@pauulmerucci9081]

Saw him play a 100 times at olympia, even the good wouldn't mess with gordie, the GOAT

[@norronlee4945]

Gordie, superman...

[@natkingcurrieiv1318]

🌟 G.O.A.T.!!! 🌟

[@caseymccallister9539]

yes! most complete to ever hit the ice

[@kevinflaherty6028]

As rough as he was on ice,he was very humble content off the ice,just happy to be where he was.

[@mikeway2223]

Amazing documentary. Glad I looked it up.

[@TheCancerkilla]

Love this.

[@markdemell3717]

Being poor makes one appreciate what one has and it keeps one hungry ,by that I do not mean hungry for food.

[@anthonydelke3193]

the man took zero prisoners.

[@September2004]

37:08 "Gordie was a very naive young man... and he has to live with that the rest of his life." 38:17 Howe finds out little he was paid. 42:34 Hull's speech, "And enjoyed every high-sticking minute of it." 53:52 Gretzky breaking Howe's record.

[@cycleguyyy]

I once got into a pretty heated argument with Gordie. Imagine your hero telling you that you were "full of sh--." I still treasure the memory.

[@joeward117]

Geordie, a beautiful man but you didn’t do him wrong. At Olympia one night, I left a minute before the end of the game. I wanted to stand in line to see the players as they came off the ice. A kid decided he was going to pull Geordie’s stick out of his hand as Gordie walked by. So, Gordie walked by and I saw the kid reach down to steal Geordie’s stick. One flick of his stick and the young kid got a couple of stitches up near his eyes.

[@tomconstance2391]

They should retire #9 across the league in honor of Howe, Richard, and Hull.

[@kevinflaherty6028]

For sure.9 9 9

[@paulh7589]

Gordie Howe is legendary, trying to watch a documentary about him with this many advertisements is almost impossible. When I get junk-mail I throw it out. When I see advertisements, I go to piss hoping that by the time I get back it will be over. I have never purchased anything because some advert told me to.

[@jimmyjam5109]

Americans!!?!?... ledgends of hockey does it way more Canadian. Watch this for content. Watch the Canadian version for the true vibe🍁🍁🍁

[@markpk7455]

for under payment Tommy Bradley wins super bowls but only made NFL too make less for a ring.

[@garycogswell5499]

Polite players won't mention his Colonel Parker type of handler that dragged him out to these embarrassing public stunts.

[@eddriver7815]

A little correction here ...... The Rocket was Babe Ruth ... more dramtic ... like 6 overtime goals Gordie was Joe Dimagio ...Much more talented in all aspects of the game ( never scored >ONE< O/ time goal ) Hull was Mickey Mantle .... Gretzky might be Ted Williams

[@barryallen5313]

Gordie was a cheap shot artist who screwed his own teammates by screwing up the union formation.Yeah he was 6 3 when most players were 5 9. Big deal.Rocket Richard was not stopable from the blue line in scored 50 goals in one season and 5 goals in 1 game,something Gordo never did.And the Rocket WON STANLEY CUPS!!!!

[@eddriver7815]

This is good , but a correction is required .'The closing of the Montreal Forum produced the Greatest , Longest applause in NHL history , when the ovation for The Rocket was stopped by force . Had they not forced the ending of The Rockets ovation , thy might still be cheering . Gordie was in Montreal remember , and no ovation in Montreal for Gordie was ever going to outlast the ovation for Maurice Richard . That Gordies applause was going to be longer than any ovation for The Rocket is incorrect . ... with all due respect to Gordie .

[@kp8747]

Glad you all had the best ovation for the 2nd best #9 😉 ...All due respect Mr. Richard

[@karlepaul6632]

​@@kp8747Was gonna say the same thing ...Gordie was the best!👍
