In all seriousness, statues of living people are creepy. The Gretzky one in particular.
The Roger Neilson and Rocket Richard ones are "meh" artistically. I get that Richard had cultural significance that transcended the sport (however reluctantly on his part, he was a humble man). But Neilson? Schmaltz and a bit gauche by an overreaching franchise as far as I'm concerned.
Are there others?
