I'm sorry making so much thread about Mario I kindda have an obsession about his game the last few days , I started analysing his play big time on videos and old VHS games I have of the old Pittsburgh team , and there's something missing in my mind.When Mario made a move 1 vs 1 , I don't exactly understand why the defenseman commit so quickly with so little movement by Lemieux , like for example when Jagr made a big move you understood the move , but when Lemieux shifted someone even if anybody made that exact move i'm 99% sure the defenseman wouldnt commit to one side as much.What was it , im looking for real in depth analysis by people who really know the 1 vs 1 game.And what obsess me about Lemieux is his grace , he was so fluid and big and skilled , except Beliveau , did anybody ever had the combination of the 3?
By the way I also have a controversy statement , Lemieux has the best all-around shot in the history of the NHL.Up to debate.( the fact people thought he could also pass make his shot better )
I know what im looking for is unclear but im just looking for a technical conversation and not a player comparison one because 90% of this board is about that so let's take a break and just analysis the pure technical hockey-machine that was Lemieux.How can a player like him exist?How many people played hockey , defenseman , how many reached junior? How many reached the NHL? How can a man humiliate the few that made it so easily? How can a man make the Sakic's and Yzerman's of this world look like average offesnive producer?
PLEASE DO NOT TALK ABOUT GRETZKY , I KNOW HE DID THESE THINGS 2 BUT HE WAS A DIFFERANT PLAYER AND I'LL MAKE A THREAD LATER IF NECESSARY
