Sid's Hockey IQ is the most impressive I've seen in my lifetime. I didn't get see a ton of the Great One or Mario by the time I was old enough to appreciate. Sid does everything really well, but he's not an all-time great skater or shooter, or even playmaker, imo. And he doesn't have great size and/or physicality like Mario, Jagr, Gordie, Ovi, etc...He just sees the ice like a chess board and he's always 3 moves ahead of the defense. This attribute makes him a top 5 player of all time. He also wins. All time greats in hockey must win to be all time greats. He's top 5 all time, imo. Gretzky, Orr, Mario, Gordie, & Sid.
