I met Hawerchuck in 92 at a golf resort in Palm Beach I worked at. Big guy. Playing golf with his 5 or 6 year old kid. He told me his name and I said “there’s a great hockey player with that name” He smiled. He knew I knew who he was but that I was doing it discreetly. Seemed like a sincerely nice guy

The best comparison/example of Lemieux's greatness is this; Steve Yzerman, unquestionably a Legend of the game, has exactly 32 more career points than Lemieux (2 goals, 30 assists) however Yzerman also has 599 more career games played. That's a little more than 7 Seasons worth!! This just illustrates how insanely, RIDICULOUSLY DOMINANT Mario Lemieux really was. I rest my case.

There were some pretty good players on the team, but not exactly team players or young phenoms.

@stevie_unibrow9056 I disagree. Mario had Jarmior Jaga, Ron Francis, and Keven Steven's all top end talent. Penguins also had Peter Nevad and Robert Lang during the time Mario was there, so Mario had a great team around him, not for the first like 3 years though, but after that, he had a great team around him They even had Paul Coffey go there for at least a season. Jaromir Jaga is one of the greatest players to play the game. Had he not left the NHL for 3 years during his career, he would have had at least 750 goals. Mario had a great supporting cast as well, that's why they won back to back championships, so that argument of Wayne had more help. I disagree

Hawerchuk did well, considering that he was the star for the Jets and all checking lines were against him and he had no help. Under-rated. Wendal was originally a defenceman, and should have stayed such. He was injury prone, but a legend in Toronto. Sundin was a born right-winger. Mis-used in Toronto as a Center, when he was a Mahovlich type winger. Won the Gold medal with Sweden and took the MVP in the Olympics in 2006...as a winger. A legend, and would have been better still if he was not underused by Pat Quinn.

Clark may not have been a true superstar, but he was an incredible top notch mix - the rarest, in my opinion - of top scorer, and top fighter/tough guy. What will likely never be equalled again (and probably only ever matched by Rick Tocchet) were crazy GOALs / FIGHTS statslines like . . . rookie season 86/87: 66gp, 34 G, 23 fights (+ 10 games, 5 goals and 5 fights in the playoffs!!!), 86/87 season: 37 goals, 30 fights (!!!) including all the heavyweights (Probert etc) in 80 games . . .it's absolutely an insanely tough hard to imagine season, and obviously a reason why his career was shorter. But 30 goals, 30 fights in a season - you will never ever see that again folks.

Clark played for a Leafs side similar to the current team, they didnt give a shit. So he did everything, and his body suffered for it. If Clark's back had stayed healthy, he would have been one of the best.

You should fix your chapter marker: - Pierre Turgeon, not Pierre Turon - Mike Modano, not Mika Madano - Mats Sundin, not Matt Sundin - Wendel Clark, not Wendle Cark (This one in the video only) The others looks OK to me (Although apart from Lemieux, I do not know those other former 1st-pick of the 80s)

Mario supposedly broke guy lafleurs unbelievable records in junior pro hockey. Supposedly. Still? Though? Guy lafleur is still the only professional hockey player in history to have recorded 2 straight seasons of 100 goals or more in each season. And the only player to ever record two pro seasons of 100 goals or more, period. A few others accomplished it. I think pat lafontaine is one. But I can’t remember? Yet the interesting thing about Mario and guy is this. Despite Mario’s incredible final junior pro season? Guy is still the only player in history to be able to say he recorded 3 points a game in a pro league. Not even Mario can say that. As Mario ended up with 2.8 points a game scored on average . In his junior professional career. Now Considering what Mario accomplished his last junior pro season? That’s almost shocking. Lafleur still ended up ultimately with more points a game. Exactly 3 points a game recorded throughout his junior pro career. Including 130 goals in 62 games his last pro junior season. Lemieux got 133 in 68 games in Lemieuxs last junior season.’ That’s incredible. Though on the pace lafleur was on? In lafleurs last junior season? Lafleur clearly would have ended up with around 150 goals in the regular season. If lafleur had played 68 games. Like Lemieux. Which still blows Mario’s 133 goal junior pro record away.

No. Joe Murphy suffered a traumatic brain injury. He left the ice bleeding from the head, nose, and mouth. His former wife said his personality changed that day. He became severely depressed and delusional. It's really a tragedy.

@cjm8160 I was a Blackhawks season ticket holder during his tenure. He was a fun-loving guy then. He gave a lot of his money to friends and family. Many players have reached out to help him. But he seems stuck. It's a real shame.
