Because it's a hockey forum. Your beliefs and opinions are of value to yourself only. Unlike presented facts and evidence.
Typically when you engage into conversation with someone, you don’t give your perspective and then go out of your way to tell them that their perspective doesn’t matter. Not sure why you are trying to take a hockey conversation and make it personal.

I'm not sure why you guys feel the need to make snarky remarks at each other, but I'm asking (once) that we move on from this line of discussion.

Sorry if I over stepped, I will end this conversation from my end.

Here's the guys I'd definitely rank above him now:

Gretzky
Lemieux
Hasek
Roy
Jagr
Lafleur
Ovechkin
Crosby
McDavid
Lidstrom
Bourque
Brodeur


Guys maybe above Yzerman post-1967:

Makarov
Potvin
Trottier
Bossy
Clarke
Messier
Robinson
Sakic
Fetisov
Chelios
Tretiak

Yzerman nearly lost an eye, a knee, and powered through countless other injuries for this organization and put up a mountain of points doing it and helped the team overcome a 42 year title drought. Not to mention making sure they won it again after the Konstantinov tragedy.

Crosby is a sniveling little baby ass bitch. I don't care what trophies he has, I don't how many cups he ends up winning, or however many points he scores. He is never going to be better than Yzerman.

There, that is the end of my completely bias, but totally correct rant. 😄

I totally agree with you.
