That wasn't the Gretzky effect.

It was more sort of like at the end of the game, like, how'd Gretzky have four points there?

That was weird, right?

He was a points accumulator, which isn't to knock him.

He just wasn't as viscerally dynamic as Mario Lemieux was.

And you can ask me questions if you want, but I say let your mind run free.

The right choice is whatever the man in the mirror is telling you is the right choice here.
