Inspired by this part of redbull's post in the best breakaway thread.
Todd Marchant got a ton of breakaways. As an Oiler fan with Ducks tickets, I saw an awful lot of them over is career.
He scored one important one in 97. I can't remember another one. It got to the point where a Marchant breakaway was actually relaxing, because the outcome was predetermined.
Who else was absolutely brutal on breakaways in your mind? And don't say Gretzky-I'm not talking about someone who thought they were a weakness. I'm talking all-time brutal.
This has to be the all-time worst single breakaway, now that I think of it.

On a side note, nobody gets as many breakaways as Michael Grabner. He must have had 30-40 breakaways last season, that's no exaggeration. He scored maybe on 7-8 of them. He's terrible on breakaways though. He's too fast for his hands/head. If he ever gets it together - wow. He's the complete opposite of Mario who really looked like he was in slow motion, seemingly had as much time as he wanted.
