I am wondering what all of you think makes an "ELITE PLAYER" or a "SUPER STAR" in hockey? ~'~'~'~'~'~'~'~'~'~'~'~'~'~'~'~'~'~'~'~'~'~ Al www.WildHockeyFan.Com ...
The media. Dave in Whitby, which is close enough to Toronto to learn that every signing from Renberg to Kablerle to Nolan to Coliovacchio (sp?) is a superstar...
I think it's a combination. Mike Gartner was never considered a superstar, but of the 5,610 people to play in the NHL prior to this season, exactly four...
... If it was simple point production then Bernie Nicholls would be one of the "elite-est" players of all time... However, he is definitely not. Rod Langway,...
... The ... I've never considered Roenick to be an elite player; perhaps in the second group. Modano's in the first group. I agree with the point made on...
ok, I'll admit the media isn't the sole factor. Like some of the other posts, I like well rounded champions. I have always said Steve Yzerman was the greatest...

... Actually I see your original point here. Copyright however, has nothing to do w/ the life & death of the author. It lasts for 75 years, without ...
... Jean-Patrice, I'd take Perreault over Nieuwendyk as a face-off man. Here's why the statistics don't tell the entire story. First, you need to consider...
... I'd have to disagree. Collectors don't "need" guides. Speculators, dealers, and folks trying to cash in at some later date "need" guides. I've collected...
A lot of JR's rep has to do with intangibles. He has a competitive fire in him. I too think he has slipped down a but those intangibles still keep him higher...
Well it goes beyond the media...those of us in the game go past numbers too. Quite often the intangibles and the things that don't pop up in stats win the...
Because Gartner was a pure goal scorer. As one veteran observer who had watched him play as a scout since junior said..."he isn't really a smart player, he is...
I think that we all have our own definitions. Mine would be a player who is at the top of his generation, who has the ability to impact and dominate a game on...
