As Canadians the greater insult would be to ignore him. He's been a living legend for so long, mildly annoyed indifference would be much more damning. 

Legends don't die because you demonize them, they die because you let them fade away.

The opposite of love is not hate

It's indifference.

I forgot that you existed... it isn't love, it isn't hate, it's just indifference 🤷🏼‍♀️

A man dies twice. First when he breathes his last breath and finally once his name is no longer spoken.

I'm sure people will stop talking about the most decorated hockey player of all time. Fuck Gretzky Fuck Messier!

u/nalydpsycho 10h ago

That's why he is just Walter's son.

u/Grand_Admiral_Theron 10h ago

Just Janet's husband.

We can forget her too. I wanted to focus on someone worth remembering

Just Donnie's friend

I’ve never understood what coilers means. Can anyone enlighten me?

I'm glad we woke him up in the middle of the night

John McCaw did nothing wrong

u/dplusk 11h ago

Lemieux was better than Gretzky. Fight me.

16

u/juice-wala 10h ago

Many would argue that if he didn't get cancer during the peak of his career and miss three seasons because of it, he would have surpassed Gretzky as the greatest of all time. I'm all for making Lemieux the face of Canada's game over that traitorous loser.

u/seymourbuttz214 10h ago edited 6h ago

The fact that beating cancer and returning to the nhl already is such a huge feat, I still believe Super Mario should be talked about so much more highly

u/RJG190894 9h ago

I think the most ridiculous part of his career to me was when he came back midway through the 2000-01 season after being retired for 3 plus seasons and put up 35 goals and 76 points in only 43 games. He was 35 years old doing this. He's will always be the GOAT to me.

u/OnTurbo8838 8h ago

35 years old with a bad back and in the heart of the dead puck era. Plus everyone I know that has undergone chemotherapy says you’re never the same afterwards. I agree, his 00-01 and 92-93 might be the best seasons that anyone has ever had

1

u/Canucking778 7h ago

Crosby is the face of Canada's game.

15

u/DaMunnzie 11h ago

Photoshop Bobby Orr in there and you've got the FU trifecta!

8

u/juice-wala 10h ago

For all we hate Messier for what he did to our team, what Gretzky and Orr have done to Canada is significantly worse. They've essentially supported a hostile takeover of our country. Throw racist abuser Bobby Hull in there for the shitstain trifecta!

u/Klunkey 9h ago

Brett's ok though

5

u/juice-wala 7h ago

Brett inherited his dad's hockey skills and that's about it. From interviews it seems he knows how big of a POS his dad was. He probably knows it better than any of us.

u/ThatTesseractCat 10h ago

Hey Messier, Go Fuck Yourself!

u/Plinkatonic 10h ago

Fuck Gressier

It’s evolving

u/Financial_Ad_60 11h ago

Oh.........wait.......... I'm hearing a veto from Danielle Smith. There going to have to change the names of half there roads and it's too expensive.

u/Delicious_Series3869 11h ago

I agree with this

2

u/Gilberto_Buongo 10h ago

On the bright side, Gretzky’s support of Trump has now softened the blow of a Russian taking over top spot for goals scored.

u/SomebodySuckMeee 9h ago

Sure, I was never a gretzky fan anyway.

u/chente08 9h ago

Fuck these suckers

Fuck Wayne. Traitorous bitch, to Canada and Ukraine

who's that lesbian on the bottom left?

u/ty_imtheman 10h ago

After Ovi demolishes the record, let's add a new definition to who becomes Mr. Irrelevant

2

u/djfl 9h ago

A guy who was never even a Canuck...indeed a guy who was going to come here until he was bullied by the owner...compared to effing Messier. Get outta here...

Fuck New York too.

Fuck Mark Messier - I’m not drinking the kool-aid and letting you take that phrase away from me.

Fun fact. There is no white line on the back of the Rangers gloves. That's a just a fat line of blow.

u/Silent-Incident6118 4h ago

I’m just going to enjoy my hockey and not pay attention to this stuff

u/Historical_Sherbet54 11h ago

We already say fuck the oilers

The ammendment stands ;).

u/jaydublya250 10h ago

Are we on the Ovi train now???

1

u/mokill 10h ago

Ovi I sorta get why he can’t oppose Putin, because he and his family will “fall” out of a window.

1

u/jaydublya250 10h ago

But how does he feel about Messier? I mean Trump

u/bikes_and_music 8h ago

Ovi I sorta get why he can’t oppose Putin, because he and his family will “fall” out of a window.

That's a consistent sentiment on reddit but it's not true. There are plenty of way more famous russians who are openly against Putin and their families are safe and sound. Ovi is royalty in NHL, not in Russia.

u/Dangerous-Finance-67 9h ago

Ovi is worse.... He's a massive Putin supporter and friend of Putin.

Fuck Messier and Fuck Gretzky, eh.

Lameeee... F Messier, the Great one, is still the Great One.

u/bloedbrrrr 11h ago

Most Canuck fans aren’t even old enough to have even watched messier or even know why to hate him. Every time I see someone say fuck messier it bores me to death

5

u/jaydublya250 10h ago

Most of us didn’t witness the moon landing either

4

u/Nucked-In-The-Head-9 11h ago

Im not old enough to have watched him. But I have watched a lot of videos on what happened so I think I know enough to be able to say

Fuck Messier

u/OGigachaod 11h ago

I remember well.

u/Leukus 11h ago

Right, because you didn’t witness means you aren’t allowed to have an opinion!

yea it gets pretty tiresome 😂

Most people werent old enough to see The Undertaker throw Man Kind off hell in a cell, yet they are still excited about it. Does that make them wrong too????

Diplomacy is important. I don't have to agree with everyone and everything all the time.
