The Killer Bees era in Pittsburgh, it's about five years long with Roethlisberger, one of the five best quarterbacks, Le'Veon Bell.

one of the two best running backs, and Antonio Brown, the best wide receiver at the time in the league.

Not even a Super Bowl appearance.

And Mike Trout and Shoei Itani were together for about five years.

They never sniffed the playoffs.

But Dreisaitl and McJesus, all the heart trophies and everything else, and they've never won a Stanley Cup.

That's exactly where I was going to go.

Well, you know what?

Let's play that game.

I love playing what the if and let's do it.

An NHL edition of it right now.

Let's trade.

the best player of the millennium, all due respect to McJesus.

Again, scoreboard tells the tale.

Sidney Crosby, one half of the guys who saved the sport, saved the league near the turn of the millennium.

Sidney Crosby, let's take him at the height of his powers.

Let's say 2012-ish.

Let's send him to 1983 in exchange for 1983 edition Wayne Gretzky to modern times.

How's that go for the two players?

Yes, when you do this game, when you do an exercise like this, yes, the modern player would be better than somebody from 30 years ago.
