For all the over-protection he got from teammates throughout his career, I think just one good legitimate fight would've done a lot for his reputation.
@StanOfGB LOL, the people who think that this guy is so good are oblivious to the hockey players before gretzky. He does however have one feature that no other hockey player will ever have, and that is HE IS AS OVERATED AS FUCK!
"When [Norm Green] came here, he said, 'Only an idiot could lose money on hockey in Minnesota.' Well, I guess he proved that point." Man those were some sad times.
Bobby Orr had to defend himself in 53 fights in his career. Wimp Gretzky never took that many body checks in a career that was twice as long. He is NOTHING compared to Orr... "The Greatest One"
gretzky cant fight to begin with- because he had guards that made sure no one hit him or fought him. he is basiclly untouchable so its almost impossible to take the puck from him. the amount of goals he scored is nothing and it means nothing
I love it this fight was not posted because of Neil Broten's talent i'm sure ! As a Calgarian who watched Edmonton own us Wayne was the Greatest Player Ever
To be honest. I feel like Pavel Datsyuk is better then wayne gretzky because ive seen him dangle his way through a whole entire team before hes not like gretzky he actually passes the puck and doesnt brag.
@napoleon1051 OH MY GOD!!!! YOU DID NOT JUST SAY THAT!! YOU ARE SOOOOOOO DUMB LOL LOL LOL................... wayne gretzky doesnt pass? He has the most career assists!!! MOTHERFUCKAAA. also you said that you have seen datsyuk dangle through a whole team? that doesnt sound like passing to me... you PUSSY JK
Gretzky wasn't a fighter you don't have to be a fighter to be a great hockey player. If you guys think Gretzky sucked you don't know much about hockey.
@UltMitSinner78 Gretzky was the best pure scorer who ever played the game. However, he was not the best player who ever played. That was number 4 Robert Orr
@UltMitSinner78 if you think gretzky is good and that you dont have to be tough to play hockey then you dont know anything about hockey!!. im surpirsed 10 people agree with you. then again they're most likely as fucked up in the head as you are so....
@JTxx250 Dude shut your fucking mouth you retard it docent matter what he said he tried to imply that gretzky was a good hockey player, this is a guy who never back checks gets protected 24/7 never hits anyone and who has like 3 fights in his whole career and gets the shit kicked out of him, the best hockey player is Bobby Orr he did everything so why don't you go fuck your dog or something you worthless piece of shit
@UltMitSinner78 most of the people who say Gretzky sucks are young people who didn't see him play, people in their mid thirties and up know he was the best player to ever lace up a pair of skates, his records well never be beat.
Honestly- Ovechkin and Crosby could skate circles around Gretzky. If you can seriously say the league as a whole has not improved exponentially from the late 80's, early 90's then obviously you haven't seen any actual Gretzky clips. It was a totally different game at that time. Incomparable.
@duffy31311 WOW....you are watching all Gretzky's videos and being a hater.........reality check Gretzky killed penalty's. Once you know what the F' your talking about come back and comment. BTW, Im a Flyyers fan who lost to the Oilers twice in the finals, and even I can say, this guy did it all. Quantify or show video where he didnt play D.
@M26MASH Gretzky didn't excel at all areas of the game, not even close. He couldn't hit, couldn't check, wasn't one of the fastest skaters, didn't have a great wristshot or slapshot. What he did do better than anyone else was realize what he could do and what he couldn't. The things he could do he perfected. Lemieux and Orr were more talented than Gretzky ever was -- but Gretzky used the talent he had better than anyone else
@justice008a Fair enough.....on that Gretzky didnt excel in all facetsof the game. I would tend to disagree that Lemuix was necesarily more talented. Lemuix was more physically gifted, if Gretzky had the physical stature that Lemiux did, then who knows, 250, maybe 300 pts in a season (top seasons). My exposure to Orr is admittedly limited, but 7, 66, and 99 are unquestionably in class of their own......breaking it down from there, and we are splitting hairs.
@M26MASH who's 7? Orr wore #4. Don't forget one guy I hated -- Messier. He actually played a more complete game than Gretzky did, and it's funny to think the guy scored 1,887 points spending a lot of time as a 2nd line centre; he and Gretzky played powerplay together but not a lot together at even-strength. His leadership abilities far surpassed Gtezky's as well. 2 other guys who are very underrated are Marcel Dionne and Bryan Trottier. Dionne has the 3rd best pt per gm playing with scrubs
@duffy31311 Additionally, As I noted b4, I am a HUGE Flyers fan, and Mark Howe was a GREAT player, so I'm not hating on the Howe's. Gordie Howe was great, but Gretzky was better, PERIOD. If you are really a hockey fan, Gordie was more comparable to Messier or Bobby Clarke.
@stouffvilleclippers8 Crosby never got his ass kicked like that in any of his fights. Crosby is much stronger than Gretzky ever was and takes more contact than Gretzky ever did. Not dissing Gretzky but it's not correct to say that Crosby is anywhere near the level of finesse player that Gretzky was.
@CaptainFantastik1 umm, not hatin here or trying to start stuff but crosby seems sorta bad at his first couple fights, the only reason his opponents bled was cuz he hit em on the ice from my perspective anyway
@CaptainFantastik1 Are you drunk? Ok if you talk about Oveckin. He is maybe half as good as gretzky. "crosby" ?? He is not even close ovechkin. THE GREAT IS GRETZKY.
@SirRandomVlogger Gordie Howe? He had skills, but his greatest skill was longevity. As a huge Red Wings fan, I love Gordie, but he's not even the top Red Wing of all time, nevermind top player. Yzerman, Lidstrom, Howe.
Gretzky would be one of the top playmakers in today's NHL, but he wouldn't get more than 40 goals per year. Conversely, Crosby and Datsyuk would shred the NHL of the 80s, and put up insane numbers. Lemieux would demolish any era he played in.
@bllau I remember that. I also remember this one time where Bobby Gould didn't score any points for a night. Wait, that was most of the games he played.
Comparing one lame fight (between two non-fighters) is a stupid argument. Gould won the fight for sure, but does that mean that Lemieux wasn't amazing? By that comparison, Gretzky didn't even belong in the league, since my 120 lb girlfriend could kick Gretzky's ass.
Show some respect? The man put up stupidly high points, and that's where my respect ends. He needed enforcers his entire career. And after all those 200 point seasons? Lemieux STILL had more points per game until after he came back for the second time, where he wasn't scoring as much. But if he stayed retired, he would have had more points per game than your precious Gretzky. He did this all without needing an enforcer. Oh yeah, he never had even ONE healthy season.
Yeah, without the goons, he'd have way less points.
Also, 1000 more points than Lemieux, and nearly 600 more games played. Your point? Lemieux's points per game was still higher before he came back from retirement. That's right. MORE points per game than Gretzky.
@HamletvsJawas You are actually talking shit... First of all, Mario was the only player in NHL at the same level as Gretzky. Their points per game are actually pretty similiar. If u r gonna compare those two, consider number of games, and the fact Mario has an Olympic gold medal.
@santaliqueur Well, Mario was much bigger than Wayne, so it was logic for Gretzky to have enforcers, unlike Mario who was big enough to protect himself...
Wayne was never a fighter because that was not the type of hockey he learned to play he had finesse - and skills far greater than any player after him - he loves the game - and when the other coaches had no other talent under their belts ecept to place 2 men to cover him - or rough him up so they had a chance of winning - is when Mr Gretzky decided to quit playing - was a sad day for hockey - because u will never see his qualities and talent in a player again thank you Mr Wayne Gretzky
@danhabsfan9 0 but thts not the point. we can actually defend ourselves. MONTREAL FRENCH CANADIAN. no. i like the canadians but not there cocky fans. only trhe respectful fans i like.
@WW2medicfan well gretzky wasn't trained to be a fighter, he was trained to score and win championships. i'll take the world record for goals over fights any day.
@MrDreadedbwoy It's for sure they are actually bigger...the average bw has ballooned up like 20-30 lbs compared to 15-20 years ago. I know their secret..but im not sure if I can tell:p.
Gretzky said that this Fight happened the same night that he was awarded Sports Illustrated's SPORTSMAN OF THE YEAR 1982...and that Broten made some comment about it...it's referenced in Gretzky's book MY LIFE IN PICTURES...AWESOME BOOK!!
HEY The Great 1---Yep is Great---A Brilliant fighter? No Way-Mr Broten Is an 80 Golden Boy---All us Whom routed for Herb's Team--Should keep that in Mind---RIP Herb Brooks
@DevilsFreak17 the same Mickey Mouse Franchise that got away with all the bullshit holding and interference in the trap era, that has not so coincidentally has won a total of one playoff round since the lockout ended.
The Greatest Hockey Player vs. The most decorated American in hockey history...No one else has a Minnesota State hockey title, NCAA Title, Stanley Cup aaannnddd a Gold Medal.
@mplseast23 ignorant cunt ? Calm down. Yes the NCAA championship is more than our midget title, but its still nothing compared to the Memorial Cup. The memorial Cup is considered by many hockey experts THE most difficult title to win.
NCAA, you have to win 4 games... The memorial cup, you have to win 19 games against better teams. When hearing about a player's past achievements ( on TSN or something), they will never emphasize on a NCAA title. As for a memorial Cup, its a very prestigious title
I got skiing, soccer try-outs in november volleyball all year long and now a job haha. I wish I had time to play hockey at a high level but theres just a certain amount of thing you can do
I am a very big hockey fan, but i dont know much about hockey below Juniors.
Anyway, so ur basically saying that its the Midget tournament right ?
@ajrasmussen he never won a state hockey championship. He only won NCAA Champsionship, Stanley Cup, and a Gold Medal. Don't mean to make it sound diminishing because it is not, but he never won the state championship.
why lemieux was better part one, he somtimes HAD to take it into his own hands, gretzky had people to do the dirty work for him, a perfect examle of how instigation in todays NHL works i.e. avery punches sid, godard comes and throws punches back to back untill avery's bloody mess, nothing every came pretty if you messed with wayne
@HeavyMetalFreak6667 Mario Lemieux was "better" than Gretzky because of his fighting abilities? Wayne is like 175 pounds soaking wet. Mario was what? 6'4", 235 pounds? He'd better be able to hold his own in a scrap at that size.
@johnnydelbravo Im not gonna get into the who's better argument. Okay I probably will and I do have my opinions, but in no way is "fighting" a factor when it comes to those "combatants". Lemieux wasn't excatly Mr.Toughguy. Not nearly enough to count. If your'e talking Howe, Messier, Lindros, etc, then it's a factor. But not in this case.
lol you can read Broten's lips as Gretzky drops his gloves... "what the fuck?" hahaha

Gretzky acted tough because of the fighters on his team but he couldn't back it up himself. Broten was no fighter either.

Because if the refs did not come in to save him Broten would have murdered him
I love the confused look on Broten's face,

@MrDreadedbwoy It's for sure they are actually bigger...the average bw has ballooned up like 20-30 lbs compared to 15-20 years ago. I know their secret..but im not sure if I can tell:p.

Gretzky said that this Fight happened the same night that he was awarded Sports Illustrated's SPORTSMAN OF THE YEAR 1982...and that Broten made some comment about it...it's referenced in Gretzky's book MY LIFE IN PICTURES...AWESOME BOOK!!

mplseast23 1 year ago
@mplseast23 ignorant cunt ? Calm down. Yes the NCAA championship is more than our midget title, but its still nothing compared to the Memorial Cup. The memorial Cup is considered by many hockey experts THE most difficult title to win.
NCAA, you have to win 4 games... The memorial cup, you have to win 19 games against better teams. When hearing about a player's past achievements ( on TSN or something), they will never emphasize on a NCAA title. As for a memorial Cup, its a very prestigious title
ski4life19 1 year ago
@ski4life19 no it is more like winning the Royal Bank Cup especially since players from Junior A Tier II are usually recruited to the NCAA.

I got skiing, soccer try-outs in november volleyball all year long and now a job haha. I wish I had time to play hockey at a high level but theres just a certain amount of thing you can do
I am a very big hockey fan, but i dont know much about hockey below Juniors.
Anyway, so ur basically saying that its the Midget tournament right ?

@ajrasmussen he never won a state hockey championship. He only won NCAA Champsionship, Stanley Cup, and a Gold Medal. Don't mean to make it sound diminishing because it is not, but he never won the state championship.

why lemieux was better part one, he somtimes HAD to take it into his own hands, gretzky had people to do the dirty work for him, a perfect examle of how instigation in todays NHL works i.e. avery punches sid, godard comes and throws punches back to back untill avery's bloody mess, nothing every came pretty if you messed with wayne
HeavyMetalFreak6667 1 year ago 16
@HeavyMetalFreak6667 Mario Lemieux was "better" than Gretzky because of his fighting abilities? Wayne is like 175 pounds soaking wet. Mario was what? 6'4", 235 pounds? He'd better be able to hold his own in a scrap at that size.

@johnnydelbravo Im not gonna get into the who's better argument. Okay I probably will and I do have my opinions, but in no way is "fighting" a factor when it comes to those "combatants". Lemieux wasn't excatly Mr.Toughguy. Not nearly enough to count. If your'e talking Howe, Messier, Lindros, etc, then it's a factor. But not in this case.
