The point is that...

- 16th all-time in goals scored (tied with Sakic)
- 7th all-time in era-adjusted goals scored
- 4th all-time in consecutive 30-goal seasons
- 5th all-time in total 30-goal seasons
- 7th all-time in game-winning goals

All of that ^^ PLUS...

- 72 career fights - most of them against some pretty legitimate opponents (here's a few of them)
- - Barret Jackman x2
- - Cody McCormick x2
- - Steve Ott x2
- - Cody McLeod x2
- - Willie Mitchell x2
- - Brendan Shanahan x2
- - Radko Gudas x2
- - Deryk Engelland
- - Denny Lambert
- - Lyle Odelein
- - Rick Tocchet
- - Ryane Clowe
- - Bill Guerin
- - Zac Rinaldo
- - Jordin Tootoo
- - Darren McCarty
- - Derian Hatcher
- - Rod Brind'Amour
- - Tom Wilson

PLUS... 2x Olympic Gold... 1x World Championship... 1x World Cup

PLUS... Currently leads all Canadian players in points and goals since the NHL (re-?)joined the Olympics in 1998, with 10 goals and 14 points in 19 games. The next-closest "modern-day" Canadian player in goals-scored is Eric Lindros with 8 goals in 20 games (even though 5 of his goals were in the 92 Olympics, before he was in the NHL). The next closest (since '98) in points is Sakic with 13.


One of the top-10 greatest and most consistent goal-scorers of all-time, and arguably one of the 5 best power forwards of all time, but not considered one of the "Best 100 Players Ever."
