LOL two words BOBBY CLARKE, a better leader, a tougher player and a BETTER defensive player, its more then just scoring goals. the mans work ethic bordered on the supernatural.
A talented play maker, he had three 100-point seasons, twice led the league in assists,[2] and played in eight NHL All-Star Games. He was also a great defensive player, a great checker, and one of the best in the face-off circle. One of the game's great leaders, Clarke was the captain of the notorious Broad Street Bullies during their heyday in the mid-1970s. The Bullies were a reflection of their captain, who had a tireless work ethic and a strong will to win even if it meant breaking the rules.[3] The latter, some say,[4] is exemplified best by Clarke's infamous slash to the ankle of Valeri Kharlamov during the Summit Series in 1972, which is still a source of controversy to the present day

Clarke retired following the 1983–84 season with 358 goals and 852 assists for a total of 1210 points in 1144 games, and immediately became general manager of the Flyers. He spent 19 of the following 23 seasons as a GM of the Flyers, also briefly serving as GM of the Minnesota North Stars and Florida Panthers, and reached the Stanley Cup Finals three times with the Flyers and once with Minnesota.
All this he also had Diabetes and played in a far tougher NHL, Crosby would have been destroyed if he played then.
