Im really not to sure why so many people, on this video and in general bash eric lindros constantly. Have you forgotten the years when Lindros Dominated the league? Yes he has done very controversial and disrespectful things off the ice, maybe lots of people hate him for what he did to the Nordiques? Anyways dont forget the monster numbers he put up in the clutch and grab era of the mid/late 1990's. He could hit,score,skate and do everything else extremely well and entertained the fan.
I miss lindros and neely. they would have had cups and been the to best ever to play if they could have stayed healthy. and i do mean the BEST EVER, okay orr is the best ever, but still they were awesome.
@TeamCropDusters wrong. if you put Getzlaf and eric staal together you get Eric Lindros. and to bring up eric staal and say Lindros plays like him is an insult to him and the Flyers.
Even though I'm a diehard Blackhawks fan, I always will remember Eric Lindros back in the days when I was a kid collecting hockey cards and got his rookie card. I even read his book. He was my idol, and hopefully there is another great hockey player like him
I don't care if Lindros didn't keep his head up or if he had bad attitude in the beginning of his career. He is and will always remain of one of the best if not the best power forward in the history of NHL. I wish he would come teach the new "NHL" how the game is supposed to be played.
@1banez Oh,that's too bad!But that's alright,I appreciate your supporting Lindros very much and by the way you stated your comment can I tell that you get just like me that nonsense along the lines of "keeping head up,Quebec,attitude"is meaningless and makes for a weak argument.Keep in touch,brother.
@1banez He is the best power forward ever.No weaknesses,a perfect game.And that includes details such as face-offs,play along the boards etc.Unstoppable.Legally that is."The head up" argument is a weak one.Every forward has his head down yet they won't get hit.Couldn't beat him in fights,scare him by playing physically against him,overpower him.What else was there left to do?The head.....
@1banez Yeah he may have had a shortend career due to the fact he was so huge in juniors and never needed to keep his head up back then. But look at his points per game stats in the NHL and that man deserves to be in the Hall of Fame in Toronto. He had the hands of Lemuix with the tenacity of Terry O'Reilly. Never since has their been a power forward like him and there probably never will be.
Eric Lindros Was Such an Amazing player, except he had to keep his head up, as we all know. This man, Dispite Injury, Had over 1000 Points. Amazing. A True NHL Great. Screw Crosby.
@amadisdemitrius scotty yea, scotty elbowed lindros in the head....live by the sword die by the sword. big ole' scotty has massive concussion problems himself
LOL when I saw this video, the first 10 comments where like -2s and stuff. Why are people butching one of the BETTER Power forwards hockey has ever had. There isn't a single weakness in this MONSTER, except, being able to keep his head up. Get a grip people, I see it on every Lindros video, geees! -.-
its because Lindros was a douche bag. Drafted in the OHL, didnt go to the team. drafted in the nhl, nope too good for that team too. his attitude cursed his career and his popularity.
@RainbowSixVegasII You're right on,man.But the thing with "keep his head up" just doesn't work as anargument against him or as his weakness.Every player has their head down at certain moments as a puck control is much easier and it's just natural.I just watched Mike Modano's highlights and there were carbon-copy moments of him having his head down as he carried the puck,yet he didn't get hit.Lindros' head was deliberately targeted as that was the only way to stop him.That's the bottom line.
fuck you octavarium23 you dont know what the fuck your talking about stupid dip shit he obviously had his reasons your a douche he was great your just in denial you fuck
The most damn gorgeous man on the ice. No matter what people say I will always love Lindros! Yes, he had his ups and downs but at least the guy could play hockey. And how!!!
I don't understand how people can like Lindros when he had total disrespect for the game of hockey by refusing to play for the team that chose him 1st overall. How dare he refuse a position that millions of other kids would have gave up almost anything for. He thought he was that great. But he'll only have 0 cups and a few concussions. He is worse than Avery and Bertuzzi combined.
Oh man, you are the most dumbest swine ever in this world. You are so stupid and pathetic. And even if he did...so what??????? Is it your business if people like Eric or not? If you are so great why don't you go skating yourself and do what Eric did? But no...you can't even talk normally. And if you would play hockey I hope someone will hit you so hard your brains will be crushed out because you don't use them anyway
Listen mate, you better shut up because you have nothing new to say. Tell me...did your mother taught you to behave like this? Is it so lonely in your Life you have to sit behind a pc and calling people you don't even know names? Is it so hard not to be liked by anybody in your miserable world you have to spit your anger and frustration out on other people? Gheeez....I knew you were extremely dumb but insane is more closer to the truth. Shoot in the foot? Haha! You watch way too much movies.
Oh my fucking God! Praise the Lord! I'm invited to leave a comment on his profile page! Hallelujah! What else do you expect me to say: Thanks for the honor?
You know what.....you make me laugh. You make me laugh real loud. Here is something for you...: schuif het in je smoel en stik erin. It fits you perfectly ...LULLO. That's another one for you.
And again it shows how pathetic and brainless you are. That huge dildo is stuck in your own dirty rotten mouth so shut up and go back to the lavatory. Or do us all a pleasure and kill yourself. Do you really think I care about what a lousy loser like you have to say? If you were a human okay but you are nothing more than a pathetic lousy rotten stinky rat
I heard their was once a sign in the crowd when Lindros was with the Rangers, Vs the Flyers. And the sign read, The more they Boo you, The more they miss you.. I miss Eric Lindros alot, he was a great player, and a great Captain. He had some great games. I dont care what people say. Lindros, LeClair, and Renberg Were Magic for the Flyers! Winning or Losing, Doesnt matter, They were Awesome!!! from the bottom of my heart! Those guys were Awesome!

Inconsistent player who never lived to his billing. I remember Lindros prediction to win the 96 playoffs vs Florida and then watching Jovonowski own him. 88 had some good games and many more average ones.
Lindros while he was playing between 91 and 98 was probably the most dominant player on the ice. its hard to be dominant with a bunch of average games
I remember reading an article about Clarke askin Lindros to get on the flight back with the team and be looked at by team doc but he felt something was wrong and stayed behind and Leclair stayed with him. In the hotel LeClair went to check on Lindros and found him in a tub of water having trouble breathing, went to the hospital and he had a collapsed lung. Doctors said if he got on the airplane the cabin pressure would have killed him. Eric Lindros one of the most dominant players of his time.
This video made me remember and appreciate what he did for us up until he caused all that nonsense with Clarke (I don't him like anyway). I grew up watching this guy play, and he was my favorite. I started watching them in around 93-94, and I loved the Flyers and I know that Lindros was a big reason for that. Thanks for the great years 88, and I wish you would have been there for the captain's ceremony, I'm sure you would have gotten a big ovation despite all the problems we've had with you.
Loved watching lindros play with the flyers since the beginning. He truly was a talent. Then the league basically shut him down by trying to take his head off on the house. He wasn't the same after a few concussions but i'll always remember the good times. Thanks for the video!
most these highlights are givin me don cherry's rock 'em sock 'em nostalgia. lindros was a big mamma jamma, i just wish he hadn't turned into a fat bastard by the time he came to dallas
oh god thats not a tribute but a shame with this song lol.......

god i hate these retarded 12 year old fangirls who make a correlation between being cute and being good at hockey.

2. even then, saying he's cute is retarded because something like 95% of the viewers here are male.
