I guess Pittsburgh and Boston wouldn't be considered elite, then. Now you're just making stuff up.

This is downright ridiculous and insulting. But sure, if someone doesn't agree with you it must be because they're misinformed.

Again, they were both great players. They had very different careers. But the notion that it's Nieuwendyk and not even close is absolutely absurd.
