I have finally read your link to Bowman's interview. It doesn't say anything about teammates not respecting Fedorov. And, again: Bowman wanted to trade Yzerman, never Fedorov. Does this mean Fedorov was so much better than Yzerman that his talent compensated for his alleged "heartlessness"?
First off, if you‘re asking if a 20 something healthy Fedorov was better than a 30 something Yzerman playing post back and double knee issues, then yes, i could lean towards Fedorov. I‘ll take Yzerman‘s peak over Fedorov‘s on both length and height 7 days a week and twice on Sunday.
Second, the difference is that Bowman questioned Yzerman‘s commitment to defense to which he later recanted, saying that he had underestimated Stevie.
There was no recanting about what he said about Fedorov‘s heart.
Third, you may wanna give that interview another read or did you skip the part about Fedorov believing his teammates were jealous of him and didn‘t treat him to the level he thought he deserved.
If Fedorov was even a 1/4 of the ********* while he played as he was in that interview, i guarentee you he wasn‘t as respected as you claim.
