Bobby Hull passes away (MOD #23- stay to hockey- see Admin warning within)

[WeaponOfChoice]

I wonder how much my Bobby hull signed stick is worth now.

If you want to try your luck with “cool so if I”, you’ll get what you get.

lmfao damn so you don’t answer the question and I also get a warning

I hope when some people in this thread die that people speak as harshly about you as some as you have about Bobby.

RIP Bobby. Thanks for your contributions to the game of hockey.

Dental work or moderating this thread? @Bear of Bad News made the less painful choice.

RIP Bobby. Great player.

As an opposing fan it was frightening watching him come down the wing and wind up his slapshot. Also, he scored a bunch of goals with one-timers off face-offs (don't see that anymore).

I have a story about Bobby Hull I have to share. He came to the town I live in now for an Old Timers game, event and Signed a Bobby Hull Winnipeg Jets card for me. As he was doing that I told a little boy about the Legend of Bobby Hull,how he was the Father of the Golden Brett and how Bobby used to shoot the puck so hard he'd put the puck through the boards...the boy was Awe-struck and bewildered and Bobby was giggling,smiling ear to ear as the story unfolded and told. Bobby was a class act for all fans young and Old

If they do the things he did off the ice, I would agree they should also be spoken harshly of.

Great hockey player is all you can say if you're only allowed to say nice things.

 

[Tom Polakis]

Looking at his stats now. In just over 1000 games in the NHL, he scored over 600 goals. He may have indeed reached 800 if he stuck around for the nine seasons he was in the WHA.

Also, I had no idea that he ever played with Gordie Howe, albeit for only 9 games in his final season.

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

And don't forget the Glorious 7 years in the WHA where he was Instrumental in Building that League,gave it notoriety and legitimacy and Brought the NHL to admitting 4 teams into the NHL to stop the flow of Red Ink throughout member teams

I just checked your profile, and you did absolutely not get a warning or infraction.

Arguably a top 5 player in the league's history. Hope his family's doing okay with the news.

Immediately after hearing about the death, there's a certain level of classlessness that comes with speaking ill of the dead.

But that's just me. Being a decent people is still part of my life even though it may not have always been a part of Bobby's.

But hey, let the internet know about your character. What do I care?

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Regardless of any debate, still a hockey legend and a person. RIP, few hockey fans do not know his name.

That would be 7 seasons from 1972-79 and Bobby could have scored 1000 with the right linemates. His WHA scoring totals should be counted it was Major League as much as the NHL was then

People can say whatever they want about me when I'm dead. Couldn't give a f***

 

[Beau Knows]

RIP. Great hockey player.

I met him when I was 12, got a hat signed and immediately threw it away because he was such a prick

As opposed to you pretending bad people were good and whining about people accurately describing things he did, to show your superior character on the hockey message board.

You need to work on your timing. You keep shanking to the left.

Rest in peace, Bobby.

Coming from you, that's a compliment.

Yes. He was the definition of class act off the ice. That’s for sure!
