Ronning was pretty greasy in tight situations as well, and Johnny has some pretty decent wheels. I like the comparison, although no comparison is perfect.

Denis Savard was kind of on a whole different level compared to his peers at the time. Watching old highlights of his though, I can't help but think that his style would not do well in today's NHL.
