Nieds did for sure, so did Nick Lidstrom and of course.. Bobby Orr, on those old awful skates with no support.. incredible. I'm always in awe of the old timers in that awful gear, who look wonderful even by today's standards.
Apparently Orr skated barefoot in his skates.

I have seen all the great skaters of their respective times since the mid 1950's: Hull, Keon, Cournoyer, Orr, Perreault, Niedermayer, Gartner, Fedorov, Bure, etc. The best skater I ever saw was Coffey. I never thought I would live to see a better skater than him. Then I saw McDavid skate. And it's not even close. All I can say boys and girls is: if there's ever a better skater than McDavid, let's all hope and pray that he plays for the Canadiens.
Who is best skater you ever seen on Habs?
