The man changed the game.  Sad loss, but glad he had a long life.

We are lucky he lasted as long as he did. He had a very serious stroke a few years ago that he somehow overcame. He was a tough old bastard as well as a hell of a hockey player. And by all accounts one of the nicest guys around, RIP #9.

Well shit. He'd been doing so much better in the last few years too. That sucks.

My favorite piece of memorabilia is a late 70s Canucks program that Howe signed.

He can finally meet up with Ms Edna Krabappel in heaven. Strap on your skates Gordie, you're going in.

Good bye Gordie. We'll miss you and your elbows, you magnificent bastard.
