The ignorant plebs of 1998 were way more willing to actually discuss players, in between Monica Lewinsky jokes anyway. This thread does have some good stuff pertaining to Howe's actual abilities though. I'm somewhat surprised he was so highly regarded on breakaways.In 1998, I was telling everyone..."Dionne and Esposito are just a few goals ahead of him and they played in the wide open 70's. Mike Gartner IS without a DOUBT the 3rd best goal scorer in NHL history."
Then I said "Whoop, there it is", as was the style at the time.
