I guess so but why does he keep scoring then?
Even if he doesn't have a big of tricks... you're saying you hate how he scores ... not that he can't. It doesn't make it less special. He may hold the goals record. He does things Gretzky didn't do either... hits other guys and quite a bit. He didn't get as much protection.
Just trying to give credit for what he's done. Regardless of style.
It's like when people say... oh it was the 80s... anyone could score a ton like Gretzky. Then why did no one else do it like Gretzky? And no I'm not even a big fan of him due to the dougie shit etc but he was the best in his time. .... end rant.
