Player » Gordie Howe

With the hockey record under his belt of scoring the 2nd-most goals in NHL history (801) and the nickname of ?Mr. Hockey,? what can be said about Gordie Howe except that he is certainly one of the Top Ten professional hockey players of all time. And his autographed NHL sports memorabilia is absolutely in demand today, and he remains one of the best-selling personas in Detroit Red Wings sports collectibles. Gordie Howe ? who played right wing with several teams in his hockey career but had his success largely with the Detroit Red Wings ? is regarded by many fans, colleagues and sportwriters (in addition to Wayne Gretzky) as the most ?complete player? to ever play the game. This guy was an All-Star in the NHL for 23 of his 26 years. Yes, 23 years ? Wow! To be an All-Star for one year is a great accomplishment, not to mention twenty-three years. Gordie Howe attained many of professional hockey's season and lifetime scoring records, which he held for quite awhile, until the other ?Mr. Hockey? ? Wayne Gretzky ? came along and eclipsed a few of Howe's records. Howe still holds the NHL record for most games played and most seasons played, in addition to being in the ?Top Five? in points scored for 20 consecutive straight seasons (yes, 20). In addition, Howe was amongst the ?Top Ten? in NHL scoring for 21 straight years. He won the Art Ross Trophy for leading the league in scoring six times, the second most in NHL history.

Howe led Detroit to four Stanley Cup championships and to win 1st place in the regular season for seven consecutive years, which has never been eclipsed ? even by Wayne Gretzky. Howe and his two linemen ? Ted Lindsay and Sid Abel ? were called "The Production Line" by sportswriters and fans. These three bad boys whipped the NHL for years, and in the season of 1949-50, they placed 1st, 2nd, and 3rd in scoring! Wow. But Gordie Howe was the true dynamo and heart of the trio and of the Red Wings franchise. As of this report in 2018, Gordie Howe still holds the NHL records for most seasons played and most games played. This tough, ?loves-to-fight,? ambidextrous, right wing was named one of the "100 Greatest NHL Players," and of course is in the Hockey Hall of Fame. Buy a tribute to the Golden Era of professional hockey in America when you purchase an authentic and certified NHL item that is autographed by the legendary Gordie Howe, who will never go out of style, or popularity with hockey memorabilia collectors and fans alike.
