So you don't mention the comparison because some boob can't read? Fata that.

Completely agree. I am never going to suggest that he's the next Gretzky or anything - that is stupid.

However, when I watch him play (and I have watched him a lot over the last 3 years), the player he reminds me of most with respect to style, playmaking, vision, etc is Gretzky. I hate to even say his name. But that's who he reminds me of most often.

He-who-should-remain-nameless, and Datsyuk.

Doesn't mean I think JG is as good as them (or even will be)
