Seems like Mario Lemieux is who a lot of people remember, I was at the game here when he played here for the last time. Was impressive to watch and I think he had 4 points. There was this one play where there was a scrum in the corner of the Flames zone and Mario just skated in there came up with the puck and set up or scored.

I never did see Gretzky play live so Mario for me.

That's what the Flames need to start working towards, that superstar player. Jarome Iginla and Miikka Kiprusoff were close but we're still not there. I don't think Jack Eichel is the answer either. Start a slow rebuild with the team we have and come the trade deadline for example, get some high picks.
