since this discussion is not about the history of hockey for me, that is, i remember their entire careers...
claude had way better skating and puck handling skills: kamensky-forsberg-lemieux in colorado was pure beauty to watch on many, many nights... an underappreciated all-time great line
tik and mess rocked edmonton with whomever else was thrown on their line, but it was more of a one-two punch, chemistry in knowing when to needle a guy and when to hang back, reading each other
they both cranked up their offensive game in the postseason: gave it all they got with a competitive fire second to none
i give the nod to claude for all those dang playoff GWGs on different teams, but not by much
Tikkanen is surely best known as the LW on the Gretzky-Kurri line, even though this was short-lived.. Messier played with Anderson for almost his whole time as an Oiler.
