Second of all, do you know who had 116 points that year?
PETER FORSBERG!
So get outta here with this "it was one of the greatest seasons of all time" bull####: it wasn't even the greatest individual season that frickin' year! |
AGAIN 115 points in
73 games and
163 Penalty minutes
vs. 116 points in 82 games and 47 Penalty Minutes
Both of their best seasons
did I say it was the highest scoring season of all time? there is more to hockey than points, that seems lost on people these days. Lindros legit terrified opponents while putting up those numbers.
If Lindros didn't have concussion issues he would be up there with Wayne and Mario...Wayne has said so himself.
