It's Wayne Gretzky. No question. He is the greatest hockey player of all time.

Being that I am a Blackhawks fan I always loved guys like Bobby Hull, Stan Mikita, and Denis Savard but Wayne was the best. Honorable mention goes to Mario Lemieux.

Have you all not seen this article?

Ahhh Chelios isn't even the best American born, let alone best anything. As far as Americans go I'd take Keith Tkachuk, Mike Modano, Brett Hull (depending if you consider him Canadian or American) or Timmy Thomas easily. And those are just off the top of my head, sure there's a lot more.
