In the spirit of the Brodeur vs Hasek poll (credit to Mirka the Turka), I thought this would be an interesting one.
How many wins do you think having Bobby Orr adds in a season vs how many Lidstrom or Bourque adds in a season?I'll take 8 years of Orr over 20 years of any other defender in history.
I'll even go as far as to say Gretzky is the only player that could tempt me to not pick Orr
If your goal is to win a championship, your best bet is getting 20+ years of a guy and as many legitimate chances at winning as possible.If your goal is to win championships, Orr gives you 6-8 years with a really strong chance.
Peak on peak, best player ever.
Didn't think of this, I'm changing my answer.Orr.
If you are drafting him today, you can probably get his knees fixed.
Orr.
If you are drafting him today, you can probably get his knees fixed.
Draft me Scott Stevens so I can see people meltdown about him.
Boohoo?I'm sure the New Jersey fans would meltdown if you passed over Bobby Orr to get Scott Stevens.
That assumes that all of the guys listed gives their teams an equal chance to win each year, so yeah the more years the better.If your goal is to win a championship, your best bet is getting 20+ years of a guy and as many legitimate chances at winning as possible.
Boohoo?
Do you run your opinion by every Sens fan before you post so you don't hurt their feelings?
