As long as they both lead their team to the Frozen Four, I'll be happy.

I have really been digging the Joe Mullen comparison for Potter.

Imagine if Reschny and Potter even develop to about 80% to Sakic and Mullen, we will be laughing.

80% of Sakic is still a top 100 player of all time.

Lets just hope for 65% of an Yzerman

All we would need then is a 50% Federov!

Mullen must have been the worst skating 50 goal scorer ever. At least Potter has that on him.

The most often overlooked Flame great.

He’s a knuckle-puck short of being a movie character, except for 3 cups, a few major awards and hall of fame induction.

Love that guy.
