Correct. he was just ranked 34th (I guess maybe 35th because I think the story is Gretzky is 1 and they are ranking 99 before him- maybe I missed that) of the last 55 years but not top 100 of the 100 years...means there should have been 65 pre expansion players on that top 100 list (narrator...there were not)
