Dude lived a long life in spite of his health issues.

Greatest hockey player of his generation. Gordie Howe hat trick ftw.

RIP Mr. Hockey

Still one of the GOATs, put up massive numbers in the most Alpha era of hockey. Guy could light the lamp, then drop the gloves.

When I see diving and whining of today's "greats" I cringe.

RIP Gordie.

Another legend gone. It's been a tough year.

One of the all time greats. RIP

Saskatchewan farm boy strength.

88 is a good age. 2 sporting legends in 1 week though wow. RIP Mr. hockey.

His combination of skill, toughness, class and longevity will never be matched. He was the ultimate teammate and the last guy you wanted to play against. Gretzky was the great one and Lemieux was the magnificent one but when they simply call you Mr Hockey you were the GOAT. RIP.

Hull and Howe. Fucking Nadian Farm horses.

Sad day. From a Hawk to Wings fans. You guys had the best ever.

RIP

 

[Graves The Elder]

had his card when I was a kid.
he played on the hated Wings.

his talent and demeanor made him likable though

 

[ProBoxingInsidr]

sucks he had to die around the same time as ali. this will not get nearly the coverage it should. as a detroit boy, he was a god to us growing up in michigan. RIP

 

[therealdope]

Dude played with his sons, FFS! Marty got cheap shotted and Gordie's wife told him to go out and obliterate the guy who did it. Of course Gordie delivered.

RIP Gordie Howe. He will always be Mr. Hockey.
