I think Orr is a better comparison to Sayers(both had severe knee injuries before modern reconstruction) and Mantle to Lemieux in terms of chronic pain and injury that both kept fighting through and still put up HOF numbers.Mickey Mantle is probably more like it.....or.....Bobby Orr. I mean, if Orr hadn't had his knees killed....we really never talk about him
Awesome call on Lemieux/Mantle and Orr/Sayers
Gayle Sayers immediately came to mind with Lemieux in terms of just being the best player by far on the field/ice every game they played in while healthy.
