I have a few names in mind, and i'll start with one that I think was an extremely underrated goal scorer.
Wayne Gretzky.
I think a lot of people associate Gretzky with his passing and playmaking but I feel in the grand Scheme he's really underrated as a goal scorer.
A lot of the top 3 or 5 lists i've seen rarely include him, and I ask why?
50 in 39 is a record that will not be broken unless they remove goalies completely from the game.(But I would like to know what the adjusted eqivolent would be)
He had 894 career goals, first all time, 5 years over 60 goals, and perhaps the best most accurate slap shot in NHL history...his is the best i've seen. Some guys can shoot it really hard, some are really accurate but it's rare to see a guy who can combine those two elements to a slap shot IMO.
Anyways that's my case but i'd like to see where you all would rank goal scorers who never received the credit that they deserved.
