Bobby Orr = best defenseman EVER.
Wayne Gretzky = best offensive forward EVER
best over-all player EVER = Bobby Orr
Orr was a better stickhandler than Mario, better skater than anyone except maybe Coffey, better shooter than any other d-man in history (could shoot it 100MPH, only ACCURATELY), one of the 3 best DEFENSIVE defensemen ever, could fight when need be, and was humble as all get out. Totally dominated an era, and did it pre-expansion for one year (Calder trophy, 2nd in Norris voting) then in expansion and on e one knee, and finally on one-half of a knee in Chicago. The best to ever play this game.

Mario was a very special talent but,...."Most gifted played ever, by far and away."...???....You'll get alot of support but, he wasn't as 'far and away' as you might possibly think he was. I guess you would have actually had to see Orr, among others listed here, to truly appriciate just how talented they were?
