From the mid-1940s until the mid-1990s, at least one member of the Howe family was in the NHL. Incredibly, for several seasons during the 1970s, all three played together in the World Hockey Association! Gordie is second to Wayne Gretzky in the NHL for career scoring and legendary status. He won six MVP awards and in his 25 seasons was a first-team all-star 12 times and a second-team selection nine times. Then, at age 45, he was the MVP of the fledging WHA, scoring 100 points for the Houston Aeros, where he teamed with his sons, Mark and Marty. The three also played together for one NHL season -- 1979-80 for the Hartford Whalers -- when Dad was 52! May 04 00, 2:43 PM
