    LMFAO i have made 0 points? I think you mean I haven't posted any stats.

    Anyone that doesn't know both Bobby Orr's stats and Wayne Gretzky's shouldn't be in this discussion, oh wait maybe it's a good thing you aren't coming back for you thought Gretzky had won 5 Stanley cups ;)

    Your basing your argument on longevity, this is boring me for if Longevity were that much of a factory Gordie Howe would be #1 without question. Longevity doesn't have much stick with me, so thats why Gordie Howe doesn't rank in my top 5 at all.

    You made no post about my major argument to that Gretzky played in an offensive era with inflated to SHIIIT stats. A highly offensive player putting up highly offensive numbers on a highly offensive team being protected and babied the entire way is not as impressive me enough to give him the nod over Orr.

    Inflated stats is all gretzky fans can ever spit, just yammer yammer yammer about stats. The minute you speak about the fact Gretzky was actually more woman than man they freak out and yell more stats lol.

    Orr has the stats my friends, and is a man.

    Never wore a helmet
    Multtiple stanley cup winner
    multiple norris trophy/hart winner
    ART ROSS TROPHY WINNER.... yes by a defensmen

    Never babbied, never had anyone hold his hand.

    The REASON Orr's career was ended early was that he played in such a demanding era physically and he was beat on every night. Still putting up insane numbers, still defending against hacks slashes high sticks to the face targeted like a dog perservering. What has Gratzky had to ever persevere against? yapping to the reff to make sure he did his job keeping the physical play off of him.

    But all of that is ok, you can play untoutched.... with padded numbers as long as you do it for MANY years. Longevity are you kidding me. That doesn't make you the greatest player of all time, NOT in my books.

    Inflated stats and Gretzky is NOT a valid argument. Where are these other players with +200 pts in a season to prove your point? Seriously, if it was a wide spread point scoring bonanza then other players surely have these types of numbers. Not a single player does however? That's crazy. Also. Gretzky played with GARBAGE in L.A. Took a a team that was 18th of 21 and brought them to 4th. Just becau....

    I can't continue this.


    You are being deleted from the Top 8 of my heart.

    You are the one asking me to hit you up when Orr gets 215 points. A DEFENSMEN, you are asking a defensmen to get 215 points then hit you up. Like 140 isn't enough, and an artross trophy isn't enough.

    Your stats can't save you.

    Gretzky fans always point to the monsterous point totals that Gretzky put up, and if we are talking Gretzky vs the Orr the gloves come off and there will be tears. I have defended Gretzky in the past many times from people that say he sucks, which is foolish...... but we are comparing hiim WITH BOBBY FUUUUCKING ORRRRR.

    You are sitting there telling me, Gretzky trumps Orr and playing it off like there is no debate that i'm crazy for thinking Orr ever could be no question. That is insane to me.

    I said the 215 thing in combination with mentioning PRO FUUCKING STARS. I was chiding your points.

    Bobby Orr dominated the game.
    Wayne Gretzky dominated the game. He did it for way longer though.

    One season doesn't make you the best of all-time, being able to consistently dominate your peers puts you above the rest.

    Too bad Orr was made of sugar and spice and everything nice.

    Bobby Orr was 10 times the man Gretzky was and you know it.

    As Canadians we are brainwashed to forget or ignore or never have it talk about that Gretzky was Crosby 3.0.

    Gretzky whined more than any player that ever lived, and got his way too. He was literally allowed all the room in the world to do his thing. Just how good would Gretzky have been if he was made to take the abuse a superstar is supose to take.

    Big numbers don't dazzle me. Not when the greatest of all time is mentioned.

    Gretzky was the greatest hockey player of all time.

    Legit.


    Also, Bobby Orr is Canadian. It's not like we're comparing Wayne Gretzky to Slava Fetisov. These are both Canadians.

    For real they are both Canadians, the debate is fierce.

    They are both gods in my mind, both changed the game forever.

    Did you get a mic yet?

    I have no idea why it didn't work last night. I expect it will this evening.

    I don't need a mic to beat your ass.

    P.S. This thread proves that baseball is not important.

    My first pick would be Henri Richard, my 2nd pick would be Roman Polak.

    Polak > Orr
