Linden - Respect

Post by ClamRussel »

NHL’s all-time Game 7 points leaders
Justin Williams - 14
Doug Gilmour 13
Wayne Gretzky 12
Trevor Linden 12
Mark Messier 12
With Williams putting on a display this year it put another thing into context. Linden was clutch. He always showed up when it mattered most. He just doesn't get enough credit or respect. No one worked harder or cared more and, most importantly, delivered. All the talk of "elite" talent or 18-yr olds playing etc just consider this. I'll take this stat over 40 goal/100 pt regular seasons any day. The intangibles that don't show up in the stats columns. The playoffs are what matters and Linden was a warrior for us back in the day.

Less Canucks embarrassment please.

Nice, interesting stat Clam. If Trev had some better teams around him after the 94 run, those numbers would probably be even better.

Raise your hand if you make a point of wearing a Linden sweater during must-win games....<raises hand semi-ashamedly>

I wonder who hacked his account.
Can the Canucks just win a Cup within the next 5 years.

It was hacked? Well I guess that explains why HotNun21 hasn't returned my Direct Message. :cry:
