and a bunch of other crazy records he holds.
Gretzky was clearly a freak of nature and dominated the game like no one could. Will we ever see another genetic freak come in and break these records or has the game advanced to much for it to happen?

With how the game is played today and how good goalies have become I don't think there is any way his main offensive records can be touched. The game has evolved to much.
I always wonder how guys like Crosby, Stamkos, and OV would fair if they were taken and placed in the NHL circa 1984? Interesting thought to ponder.
