I love Nick and he deserves all the credit in the world, BUT........it's still 1) Mr. Hockey
2) Stevie Y-numbers and longevity still better than Nick 3) Nick is solidly at 3 over names like Lindsay, Delvecchio, Sawchuk, etc..........He's also as Melrose said tonight the #3 defenseman of all time in the league. I assume he's got Bobby Orr #1 and probably Ray Borque #2. (he didn't specify) Bottom line: Nick is a once in a lifetime player and defenseman.
