I think being the greatest goal scorer of all time surpasses Crosby's team success and non-record breaking playmaking ability, intangibles, etc. History will favor the guy who breaks Gretzky's record imo
History will not favor the guy who breaks ONE of Gretzky's records. Look at Wayne's point TOTALS and you will see the greatest player this game has EVER seen.

So, you believe history will favor Ovi over Gretzky, Howe, Jagr, and Lemieux?

It's possible, but that would be an indictment of history.

To me, it's not about history. All of those players are better hockey players than Ovi. There are others, too.

That doesn't mean that I don't think Ovi is great, but I can come up with 10 forwards and 10 defenseman I would rather have had on my team.

Don’t be fooled, he’s still a whiner .
I get that you can't let go of that.

I also know that if he had that career as a Ranger, you would only see the greatness and you would vehemently disagree with someone who had your opinion of him.
 
A respect thing?

I believe it was an anonymous poll.

And why would a player vote for a player they didn't think deserved it?

Sounds like you're confusing points with who the best players are.
I looked up the poll. It was for who you'd want on your team to win a game/most complete player. Not the best player in the game

Shhhh, Ovi isn’t going to pass Gretzky.
