I live in Pittsburgh, and have had the great fortune to have watched Mario Lemieux play entire professional career here. I've seen many all-time great players over the years, but no one will EVER be a greater hockey player than Mario Lemieux. He is a once-in-a -lifetime player. Even in his retirement, and ownership of the Penguins, he continues to be a great ambassador for the great game of hockey. He's been the greatest ever.

Again, I must say that I will never belittle the kind of player that Gretzky was, he was truly amazing. My only point is I wish we could have seen what Mario was truly capable of. A lot of notable players, coaches and sports writers wonder the same thing as well, so it's not just the fans.

I never saw legends like Bobby Orr or Gordie Howe, Gretsky was the emperor of assists and a world class scorer, Brett Hull could score even without the puck, but for me Mario Lemieux will always be number one. He was complete and probably one of the most valuable players of a team in NHL´s history

they forget my fav, when he does that toe drag around the defenceman then brings it to his backhand and tucks it behind the goalie Mario Lemieux is the greatest player to ever play hockey. He is the type of player that could be great in any era of hockey. If Lemieux were in his prime right now he would by far lead the league. Half those passes he makes I wouldn't even see coming. It is my personal opinion that had he stayed healthy he would be the all-time leader in goals.

I agree with Ottvalley. I've been involved with hockey for too long and have seen alot of greats come and go, but none of them have possessed talent like unto Lemiuex. He may not be the 'best' hockey player ever, as you would have to debate the valuable skills and talents needed to play the game and in what amounts a player should have them to be the best. But he was the most talented, and a sight to see.

Lemieux's gifts and charachter are so manifest and pure that he constantly transcends the general nature of that objective. While it easy despite there gifts to have a dislike casual or not to harbour a dislike for the likes of alex rodriguez or barry bonds or the aforementioned jordan even at times someone as beloved as Ali or Gretzky. This never gets in the way of the pure joy, intelligence and skill of Mario's constant ingeniuety. Vive Le Magnifique ! :)

Mario was to hockey what Michael Jordan was to Basketball incredible skill, finesse and smarts. Great vid. As a Canadian who remembers seeing that goal in the Canada Cup, i would make that the number one goal. The teamwork between Gretzky and Mario was amazing. They knew exactly what the other was going to do. Gretzkt knew Mario was going to score the moment he made that perfect pass. Sublime. But then, I am a little biased.

Thats the stuff of legend add the back problems that would debilitate most people and you understand why he will always be SUPER MARIO.

I was more of a 99 fan growing up, and didn't like that Lemieux could threaten some of 99's records. But as I grew older and wiser, I began to appreciated Lemieux for what he was, even when I'd watch him play against my Habs - which was never pleasant...! I can't tell you how many times my jaw would drop watching this guy do the things only he could do. Gotta love these "Top Ten" plays! =)

Absolutely! When you see how far ahead Gretzky is in regards to (almost) every stat, it's simply incredible. Messier has 1887 career points, while Gretzky has 1963 career assists!! We will NEVER see another hockey player like him again. 163 assists in one season? 51 games point scoring streak? Never again. But I personally still couldn't tell you if Gretzky was indeed THE greatest. Some say if Maurice Richard played in the 80's, he would've scored 100 goals. Of course, THAT we'll never know. =)

Gretzky was also thrust into a playoff caliber team. Lemieux was playing for a team at the bottom of the league. I don't know if it was so much he wasn't working hard, but he wasn't as motivated by other players and coaches to work as hard. You are correct though, playing with someone like Gretzky did motivate him to do better than what he was, and that is a very good thing. He did however still win the Calder his 1st year and the Pearson his 2nd and was only behing Gretzky in scoring that year.

absolutely beautiful. Perhaps there is more grace and dare i say genius here then in any other athlete. Unlike jordan and many other great athletes whose skills are almost secondary to the tyranical bully like nature of the competitive drive. What we have with Mario is the sheer boundless overflowing of talent and conception. Sublime, subtle ... magical. While out of the will towards the objective of winning and at times dominance grace can be produced by the sheer singularity of the drive.

I happen to think the +/- rating is overvalued, but Orr throws my criticism right out the window. Check it out sometime. The first time I saw his career rating I thought it was a misprint. It's freaking OUTRAGEOUS. Way higher than chance could account for. What it all adds up to is - when Orr was on the ice, Boston scored goals and the opponent didn't.

Nice video, but I just wanted to add something in regards to a few previous posts below. As far as Mike Bossy goes, let's face it: he was maybe the purest goal scorer the league ever saw after Maurice Richard, regardless of Gretzky's and Lemieux's stats, ok? Here's one for the road: according to some, Guy Lafleur was probably more exciting to watch than everybody mentioned above. Maybe more so than Bure, Crosby and Ovechkin! =) Thanks for posting the video! It's great to see # 66 flying!

I totally agree with you. I'm a Gretzky fan myself, and I don't think Mario is any less great than what he actually was just because I like 99 better. They were both equally mind blowing, just as much as Bobby Orr or Lafleur were in their days, or Crosby and Ovechkin are today. Everybody can have their favourites, but it simply doesn't make the other players any worse. And boy are you right about you being blessed to have seen both 66 and 99, same with Jordan and Lebron James. =)

It's no coincidence that 4 of the goals were against the Bruins. The Lemieux's Penguins absolutely owned the Bruins. He looked like he wasn't even trying that hard. But there was nothing you could do to stop him. I remember a game against the Bruins: The Bruins were on the power play in OT. There was a bad pass in the B's offensive zone, and as soon as Lemieux touched it, my heart sank because I knew the game was over. Sure enough, he splits the defense and score the short-handed game winner.

And let me tell you, I wish I had a time machine to go back to 1970 so that I could see him play. Then I would make sure to check out Jimi Hendrix, Led Zep, Miles Davis, Frank Zappa and James Brown, but that's a whole other story... =)
