    Nice! Two all-time greats. I absolutely loved Gordie Howe as a young Red Wing fan.

    Number 9 with a young 99 that chose that number to honor his hero.

    RIP 🙁

    Always great to see the all time best player. The Kid turned out to be pretty good too…

    The young Great One must’ve had great hearing.

    Two absolute legendary players in one photo.

    Didn’t Gordie mentor Wayne later on life?

    “Detroit Number 9, Two minutes High Sticking!”

    That “little kid” has a very famous father…

    If you don’t know who these two are, well that’s just crazy

    I never realized it before, but Gordie Howe kinda looks like what Johnny Carson would if he transformed into the Incredible Hulk.

    If that kid puts his mind to it, he could do great things in the league someday!

    Didn’t they remake this photo Years later?

    Agreed! As a kid, I dreamed of being like Howe. But I ended up being more like the little kid in the picture.

    Is that Michael Scott telling Wayne you miss 100% of the shots you don’t take

  18. Wrong-Disaster4765

    I hope the kid didn’t ask for Howe’s autograph. He might still be signing it!

    Goofy lookin MFer. Wonder how he turned out?

    I bet that kid’s dad is so jealous right now!
