As with all sports, some things are out of the individual athlete's hands. I believe that if Lemieux had stayed healthy, he would have been the greatest, but as it is, he'll probably be second behind Gretzky and ahead of Orr.

[font=Comic Sans MS] [/font] GORDIE HOWE - Hands down. And he did not need an enforcer to fight his battles!

UHM neither did Mr. Robert Orr....Bobby Orr Fought as well if not better than Howe and he never backed down from any man in the league

[font=Comic Sans MS] [/font] [color=#] [/color]Twister you are right. Let's say that Bobby Orr was the BEST defenceman and Gordie Howe the BEST forward. Old "ELBOWS" was great both ways, offence and defence as was Mr Orr.

#4 and Bobby Orr its not even a contest...if #99 was on the ice in the days of the tiger he never would have laced up his skates for a second game...

Gretzky and Lemeiux ahead of Orr? I want a pound of whatever you're smoking because it's completely detached you from reality!
