Thought Provoking Sports Question of the Day

[Anonymous519]

"You are starting a new hockey team and have to choose your first player from one of these men. Who do you pick and why?"

• Wayne Gretzky
  
  
• Mario Lemieux
  
  
• Bobby Hull
  
  
• Bobby Orr
  
  
• Phil Esposito
  
  
  
  
  I think Bobby Orr is a great start because he was such a fantastic defensive player and it's not always about scoring. That would be the case for a Gretzky. Bobby Hull was a great all around player but as a centerpiece if you want a defensive team go with Orr. Offensively I would go with Lemieux.

Wayne Gretzky is The Greatest for a reason.

Lemieux was a quitter and only came back because he was broke, Orr didn't play that long, and the rest don't beat those guys out.

GOOD CALL! I should have included Howe as well. Unbelievable player with longevity! Thanks for that suggestion!
