Lol UW.

There is zero question that Gretz is partaking in facial fillers and botox.

Janet is the one with the bad plastic surgery.

If you don’t like most goals in 50 games to determine greatest goal scorer, than it’s Gordie:

Alexander Ovechkin
League Regular Season Playoffs Total
NHL 895 72 967
KHL 31 5 36
WHA 0 0 0
Combined Total - 1003

Wayne Gretzky
League Regular Season Playoffs Total
NHL 894 122 1,016
WHA 46 0 46
KHL 0 0 0
Combined Total - 1,062

Gordie Howe
League Regular Season Playoffs Total
NHL 801 68 869
WHA 174 28 202
KHL 0 0 0
Combined Total - 1,071

Note: Some sources list only 12 WHA playoff goals, but verified stats show he scored 28 WHA playoff goals (26 with Houston, 2 with New England).


Ovechkin scores when he’s 52 and plays with his sons, he’ll have something to proud of :)

If he stayed healthy could he have made it to 1000 goals? I think so. Even lowering to a .6 goals per game clip would have got him there if he played about the same number of games as Gretzky and Ovechkin.

P.S. Gretzky looks either permanently drunk or has had some bad plastic surgery recently. He almost looks plastic when you see him now.
Gretz likes his liquor. Pretty well known. Too bad he supports a POS as a leader but growing up with leaders like Skalbania and Peter Puke, it isn't surprising.

Janet is still a looker. They need an eye doctor in North Van and perhaps a comedian to blow through town.

Yeah. Coming back from a broken leg after 40 days is incredible, especially to have his scoring pace increase after that recover.


Glad he didn’t have to pass a random piss test…

Is the Russian gas a disallowed substance in the NHL?

Rangers are 12 - 15 since JT arrived. They were 8-3-3 before he came in to save the day.

I guess it's all EP40's fault. You can't fix stupid. They both stunk!

The dude has been clipped from three teams now that have had enough of his primadona shit. When you piss off legends like Stammer, Lundqvist, Hughes etc..., the time is nigh Grossbart. :twisted: :mex:

You have a mouth sir..... use the close feature.

Well it’s done. Would not have predicted this to start the season. Time to sit Quinn. Let him begin to heal. Now wait patiently to see what the off season brings.
