@nevertweet015 I know his stats. He was a 3rd liner in montreal with back to back 19 goal seasons and back to back game winning ot goals in the stanley cup finals. He was no passenger. If it was so easy to score with lindros the flyers wouldnt of struggled for years looking for a RW. LeClair also proved himself in the Olympics. He led the tournament in points until the final game & finished 2nd. He had another great Olympics in 2002 after Lindros. Also, whether Lindros missed 30 games or 10 games LeClair still was a top goal scorer. You guys that attribute all his success to Lindros either never watched him play or havent thought it thru. LeClair is 4 years older than Lindros and injuries eventually caught up to him. 6 year span.... #1 Jagr 261 goals #2 LeClair 260 goals
As a flyer fan who watched every game John leclair played in as a flyer .yes he should be .the guy that says lindros carried him is so mistaken .they carried each other .not only did he win a cup for Montreal as a third line player from 95-2000 he was the best power forward in the game.if he played in this era he would would have scored 80 goals a season with no problem

Just imagine richter in this new ultra light goalie equipment forget it..Those pads he wore soaked up water and got weighted down, amazing how quick and agile he was
Played with Whalers and Pens. Good player. Whalers Eddie Johnstone scammed the Whalers and sent a great players to Pittsburgh knowing he was going back to Pittsburgh.
you will never see a better lineup of players ever together on the same ice ever again.. those were the greatest players
John LeClair is criminally underrated. He's proven himself time & time again.
He is a HALL OF FAME player

They need this format again.
Mike Richter was my favorite. I didnt know who he was when I myself became a goalie but settled on him after the 94 series and this one.

Remember 1996. And s-t, now I am twice as old as back then. By the way, I want World Cup back!
Richter greatest American goaltender

Loved this series and this USA team!
Hockey when it was great… todays game not the same
Sometimes, New Englanders and Upper-Midwest types are wicked good.
That Goalkeeper from Philadelphia is awesome.
Team Canada coaches Glen Sather and Eddie Johnston were once-upon-a-time former Boston Bruin teammates.
Good series

Played with Whalers and Pens. Good player. Whalers Eddie Johnstone scammed the Whalers and sent a great players to Pittsburgh knowing he was going back to Pittsburgh.
I remember him as a Quebec Nordique and Av's player.
Vincent Damphouse- a garbage player- was the biggest choke artist-Team Canada did USA a solid having him on that team
