Easy, 4th liner with 3 cups. I hope I had at least a part in a victory along the way.
I’d rather be injured on the bench and win a cup knowing I contributed in the regular / post-season than play an entire career and never hoist.
I’d rather be a water boy on a cup winning team than a hall of famer. At the end of the day, no matter how rich the hall of famer, he’s still thinking about what he doesn’t have.
HOF for sure. Means you have a long career and much $$$ in the bank. A 4th liner with 3 cups could be out of the NHL in 4 years
3 cups all day…
Your going to get paid ok for a forth as well. With 3 cups.
Hall of famer probably made a lot more money over their career.
Fuck just leave Jumbo out of it. That hurts my heart.
4th liner with 3 cups would probably keep you employed for a decent amount of time in the NHL, just look at Maroon. The dude is 36 and still getting signed.
Would you rather win or lose? Ummm. I take win. People who say HOF want the money and fame. I’ll bet he’d trade it for cups. Most pro athletes want to win more than anything!
It’s a job… I’d rather retire after making $80-100mm in my career vs ~$10mm with three rings
4th liners are still millionaires. I bet Joe would trade the majority of his earnings for one Stanley cup let alone three.
I’d rather make $8M a year for 15 years on the shittiest team imaginable than win a cup with 7 minutes of ice time and a $2M salary for 5 or 6 years
Give me the cups any day of the week
Love Patty. He absolutely contributed to the Bolts’ cups and deserves them. I don’t give a shit what line he was on.
Everyone says 4th liner with 3 cups until they see the HOFer’s bank account 🤑
Hmm one made $100M in his career and the other gets paid in hot dogs. Yeah lemme think about that.
HOFer means you got paid well for your career and your family is set for life.
Cups are the goal but not everyone wins those no matter how great you are as an individual or team.
Both will be remembered in their own way. Give me HOF!
If I’m a hall of famer who’s gonna get my jersey retired and be beloved by a whole city than I’ll do that. If I’m just gonna be a great player who hopped around teams than I’ll gladly hoist that cup 3 times with almost no effort required.
Hall of famer and be better at hockey
Who’s still going to be talking about the 4th liner once they retire? Who has a chance at being a coach, a commentator, or something more notable AFTER hockey? It sucks not getting a Cup or Cups, but most NHL players don’t. But to be famous for being as great a player as Jumbo or Henrik Lundquist is and not winning one, that’s almost more rare. Plus, he could win one as a coach. I guess it’s a tough call, but as someone who’s not in either position, I’d be happy with either one.
Hell I’d rather be regular ass me than a hall of famer with a legacy of failure. My failures are moderate and manageable lol
You know how many fights and missing teeth come from being a cup winning 4th line? Much less 3 ?? Fuck that give me the HOF and less CTE please 🙏
Hall of famer with my millions.
of course hall of famer. you gotta take salary into account
HOF career easy.
Everyone will say cups until they see $100 million in their bank account. Then it would change real quick
am I the only 1 that reads the .com as .cum on the boards
now you all will see it….muahahhahahah
Easy choice to take the tens of millions with a nice retirement over putting your body on the line for a few million over a few years.
A lot of great players miss out on the cup and it’s not as big a deal as some fans make it.
I would rather be a fourth liner with no cups than what I do now.
Hall of famer. I’d rather be making $8-9 AAV for 12-14 years than $1-2 AAV for 7-8 years.
Insert Iginla here….
Have some respect for the B2B2B Big Rig
I’d take Jumbo’s career earnings over the Big Rig’s.
You’ll be a whole lot richer as a HOFer
