If current athletes in any sport had a 1/4 of Stevie Y's class and character the world would be a better place.

If people in general had a quarter of Steve's class and character, this world would be a near perfect place.

he talks so humble and uncomfortable. he hated the spotlight. he truly cared about his team more than anything else. the true essence of class and perseverance

I'll never forget that winning 60 foot cannon blast slapshot in OT against the St. Louis Blues after stealing the puck from Gretzky. As a Detroit native, this guy was a truly beloved player and we loved having him as a Red Wing.

155 points in 88/89. More points than anybody but Mario and Wayne. Youngest, and the longest serving captain in the history of the NHL. There is nobody that doesn't love Steve. Legend.

He may not hold the most records or the highest records but there is no one who is a better person or player or captain than Stevie Y. He is and always will be the best in my book.
@ccain96 11 жыл бұрын
To me, he will always be the face of the Redwings. Greatest Captain ever.

I am a lifelong Bruins fan and it would be so typical of someone like myself to sit here and say "Yzerman was a great captain, but Ray Bourque was better", but let's be honest, this guy is in a class by himself. I yearn for the players of the mid-80s to late 90s

So true. When your nickname is "The Captain," you are pretty much the best to wear the C.

After Lidstom retired there are no more players of this caliber in the NHL. They were the last of a dying breed, so much class and leadership.

Did you not witness Colton Parayko handing the Cup to Laila? That was pure class. Hockey players as a whole have more class and humility than the rest of the pro athletes, and Stevie will always be the pinnacle of that class, but there are a few players who can at least try to carry the torch.

Sakic was so classy that prior to the wings/avs series in 02' when asked about again playing against the opposing #19 he responded "who's that?". As a wings fan, I always respected him as a player, he had one of the 5 best wrist shot's ever, but he not in the same class as Yzerman.
