Yeah he would, that guy did things effortlessly it seemed like. Now he'd still need an enforcer like he used to have like Semenko or McSorley or Blake, but he could just dish out great passes and score in a way that looked so easy. He had a head for the game and the rule changes didn't do anything to stop offense only to make it better.

I think some of the slower guys would have trouble with as good as everyone on the ice skates these days but guys like The Great One would still run the league.
