A friend of mine was trying to convince me this summer that Gretzky would still have scored the same amount of points in todays NHL. "He would dominate" was his words. I told him BS, but he is a greaser fan and you cant reason with that.

Yeah but it's not like player equipment isn't better, nutrition isn't better, video work isn't better.
Also, you can't do near that #### in today's game you could in those 80's.
Today's hockey is actually shifting to the 80's being more wide open IMO. The issue is big goalies and 4 players in a box in front of the net blocking shots.
Would he score 90? Probably not, but people forget how good he was.
