Gretzky is great because he had longevity and skill. Lemieux is magnificent because to my eye test, nobody has come close to his skill, but didn't have the longevity. Size, wheels hands and smarts. What a beast. And he could do it alone with guys hanging off his back. Most talented player to ever lace em up in my opinion

@PalpitoMcCray 8 месяцев назад

Wayne Gretzky broke every single record known to man. Mario is my favorite player and that's why I'm here watching this video, but let the argument go. Gretzky absolutely rewrote history, and Mario didn't break a single one of his records. You cannot sit here and say that longevity is the main contributing factor when Gretzky not only holds all single-season records, he has a higher PPG average throughout his career than Mario. To say Gretzky didn't come close to the skill of Mario is blasphemy. It's hyperbole for talking heads on a radio show.

@patrice5976 6 месяцев назад

He did have longevity played from 18 to 41 y/o 1984-1985 to 2005-2006. Gretzky was 19 and retired at 37…

@pascaljutras178 5 месяцев назад

@@PalpitoMcCray Gretzky recently told that Mario was better than him, according to him Mario would have better numbers with a team as good as Oilers was and for sure without all the injuries and his cancer. In my opinion Gretzky was better to run the game according to his plan, was better without the puck (I mean anticipation to be at the good spot), his hockey QI was better and he was playing switch on all the time. Mario was not playing switch on all the time, I guess his body condition was not allowing to push at max all the time. In my opinion Mario was better for puck control, this guy was able to move on even if one or two opponent were holding him back, he was a beast with crazy good hands, on this aspect of the play he was so better than Gretzky. It is almost impossible to do a direct comparison, they are two great players and we have to respect this.

I will never forget seeing Mario play against the Wings at Joe Louis in the early 90s. It was the only time I saw him play live and was amazed that with all of the other very talented players on both sides, including many futur HOFs, he stood out as head and shoulders above the rest. Every shift he did things that made you shake your head. He can never be considered the greatest due to injury and illness that robbed him of too much of his career, but Mario at 100% is the peak performer in the history of the NHL for me.

@kristophercantu9935 Год назад

He IS the Greatest Player to ever play! He missed 513 games in his career, Cancer and Injuries. Can you imagine his numbers with those 513 games? Even sub par, he shatters everything. Lemieux has never played Sub Par either, he's the best NHLer of all time!

4:48 - I was at that game. Mario had announced his (first) retirement and everyone knew the Pens were going to lose the series to the Flyers. So we all knew it was Mario's last home game. As time began to wind down, the crowd began chanting, "Mario, Mario, Mario." Then he picked up that puck and headed in alone. When he scored I thought the roof was going to blow off of the Igloo. Most exciting moment in sports I've ever witnessed.

@kidnicky7489 2 года назад

When I was in 3rd grade my mom picked me up at school one day and said "Guess what? We're driving to Detroit tonight and tomorrow night we're going to the Red Wings game!" They were playing the Penguins and we were staying in the same hotel that they were. Before the game, the Penguins were heading from the hotel to their bus to go to the Joe and my mom let me stand over by the bus to get a peek at the players. I was really the only fan around waiting for them. I was a chubby little kid wearing my favorite Red Wings jacket and one by one they passed me by and filed into the bus. I was saying stuff like "good luck" and "have a good game" and other things my hockey coaches had taught me good sportsmen say. Some smiled or said "thanks kid," but most of them just kind of blew past me seeing as how I was obviously a fan of the team they were about to face. Lemieux was the last one to exit the hotel and before he got on the bus he took the time to kneel down and ask me if I was going to the game and if I was excited. It's one of my favorite childhood memories. The Wings won that game but I was rooting for Mario the whole game, too. The guy is a legend and a good dude, too.

Really nice video compilation. MARIO LEMIEUX, practically lights out on a breakaway. Some of the greatest hands hockey has ever seen. Also his ability to anticipate, and how he was always laser focused on the puck(especially when he's getting attacked by hopeless D Men!). Long strides gave him that deceptive speed. And his reach also gave him another tool in the arsenal. The shorthanded goal vs Boston in '92 highlighted just about everything he could do.

Once Gretz got traded , he was a distant 2nd to Mario in points per game for the rest of their respected careers

@JAYJason6666 5 лет назад

@Biff Danielson If you look at stats, then look at points per game. Lemieux led the whole NHL in points per game every year he played from 88-2001, 3 different decades. Gretz led the NHL in points per game from 1981-1987

@JAYJason6666 5 лет назад

@Biff Danielson I'm talking season by season, not the course of a career. Bossy retired at 30, look at 99 and 66's goals per game at age 30. When Mario retired in 97, he had over a 2 points per game average....and while Gretz was playing with Kurri, Messier, Anderson, Coffey, Lowe ietc in Edmonton, Lemieux skated along side of Moe Mantha, Randy Cunneyworth, Terry Ruskowsky, , Doug Bodger, Dave Hannon etc etc....:)

@Biff Danielson Gretz put up those insane numbers while playing on arguably the best team ever and during the highest scoring era in NHL history. Imagine Lemieux on those Oiler teams?? He'd a had multiple 100 goal / 225 point seasons. Goalies in street hockey gear, not one, not 2, but 3 expansion teams to feast on....Again, once 99 left EDM, (while still in his prime), his point totals dropped by 70-80 point's a year....and Gretz would never again have better ppg numbers then 66....Hey, Gretzky had the better back, and better teammates then Lemieux.. , I'll give you that ...lol

In Mario's two highest scoring seasons the Pens had 491 and 500 powerplays. In Wayne's two highest, the Oilers had 295 and 341. The Pens have the single season record for pp goals and Mario has the single season record for most pp points. The Pens led the NHL in powerplays over his first six seasons, and for the entirety of the 80's for that matter. He did draw penalties and score on them. The powerplay was the only reason he could score big.

Old people like me who grew up around this era know Mario's story but the casual fan or some of the younger people might not know about him getting sick, then having his jersey unretired. It would definitely add to the video to include some of that like you did with the announcers reading his achievements. Also, I don't anything about editing software and it might not be possible, but if you can adjust the contrast/brightness for the really old clips to take some of the white it would look even better even though it might be a little dark.

8:48 - Mario scores off the faceoff. If you watch it, as he's celebrating he looks up to the press box. The reason he did that is because he had a standing bet with Mark Madden, a Pittsburgh sports radio talk show host, that he would score off a faceoff. Madden paid up on the bet, giving $6,600 to the Mario Lemieux Foundation.
