Those of us who watched the Original 6 will remember #9.

A real hockey player when they played real hockey.

Remember the Howe line for the World Hockey league Houston Aeros . . . Gordie, Mark and Martie. How cool.

Hockey also lost Tom Lysiak and Rick MscLeish last week.

Check out the muscles on a young Gordie - after seeing this I understand the Gordie Howe hat trick....
RIP.

Just read the biography a few months ago, "Mr. Hockey", very good book.

Howe was a complete player and the best ever.

RIP

I sometimes wonder what it would be like to be so many people's hero. I have absolutely no interest in hockey, but it's nice to see Gordy helped get Sask noticed.

Oliver , that was a book I enjoyed as well.
Amazing that he was On ice for 6 decades !

Gretzky funny story,
Gordie said if he was smart he would have played centre instead of rt wing, 20 ft less distance to skate at each end. Mite have been able to play another 20 years !
