Except for the fact that Makarov was a better player. Dominating on an international level and was kept from the NHL due to political reasons. Loob on the other hand was primarily a 30-40 goal scorer in the NHL when every team had a couple 30-40 goal scorers, who left the NHL willingly to play in a second rate league. He isn't a Hall of Fame player based on any objective standard, with most people just arguing that he meant a lot to Swedish hockey. He is more similar to Mats Naslund than Makarov.
