It is now official. U.S.A President Barack Obama has condoned Concentration Camps within Saudi Arabia. While this may not happen in the next week, here is the lowdown;
DELTA, an American Airline, has signed an agreement with Saudi Arabia Airlines that prohibit Jews. The legal ramifications are as follows; 1) A Jewish man books a flight to Saudi Arabia through DELTA to visit family. He arrives in Dubai and is greeted by Saudi officials and sent to prison for the infraction of being a 'Jew'. He is no longer able to contact the U.S Embassy for constitutional help as the U.S Government has signed a waiver with Saudi Arabia legalizing their actions. At this point any person living within Saudi Arabia deemed to be 'a Jew' is without an ally in the U.S.A. This is paramount to Saudi officials rounding up Jews, similar to that exercised by Adolph Hitler and the Nazi Party. While Saudi Arabia's position of 'No Jews Allowed' was in place years' ago, it has now been sanctioned by the U.S Government through the private sector, namely DELTA Airlines.

Heretic versus Hero - by Moses (a.k.a Stacey Marc Goldman)
The Definition of Heretic - A person who holds controversial opinions, especially one who publicly dissents from the officially accepted dogma of the Roman Catholic Church.
The Definition of Dogma - n. pl. dog•mas or dog•ma•ta (-m -t ). 1. A doctrine or a corpus of doctrines relating to matters such as morality and faith set forth in an authoritative ... manner by a church.
2. An authoritative principle, belief, or statement of ideas or opinion, especially one considered to be absolutely true. See Synonyms at doctrine.
3. A principle or belief or a group of them: "The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present" (Abraham Lincoln).
As we enter into the year 2012 (the year in which Nostradamos forecast the end of the Roman Empire), there is much dissent from traditional views in all Monothaic faith. What should we see as ultimate truth? When there is variance, is this deviance? Perception is subjective for this reason and this dissent from an ultimate objective viewpoint (whether from the Roman Catholic Church, or any Monothaic practice for that matter) will always be ongoing. Sorry Nostradamos, there will be no War in Armageddon (City of Four – Geddon). Jerusalem won’t be overthrown on a whim of the Roman Catholic Church. 'Have no fear for atomic energy for none of them can stop - a - the time' - Bob Marley 'There is eternal life in every soul' - Moses

G.A.T.T Revisited - by Moses (a.k.a Stacey Marc Goldman)
G.A.T.T (General Agreements of Tariffs and Trade)
By Stacey Goldman
An employee base is always able to be varied. 750,000 employees are able to be broken down into smaller amounts under different Holding Companies, with one or more Multinational.
Distribution from each Holding Company to a competitive market place yields price. Distribution from each multinational to their Holding Companies yields supply. An increase in multinationals yields markets.
For example, in banking, the government is represented in Canada by our Chartered banks (C.I.B.C, Bank of Montreal, Scotia-bank, Toronto Dominion, Royal Bank of Canada). Each Chartered bank is a multinational. Each region (city) is represented as a holding company. It’s retail at the branch level. The government’s printing the money and giving it to each Chartered bank (multinational). Each head office of each Multinational supplies each region (holding company).
Every branch is part of a competitive market place and this is where we see economics principle of ‘Laissez Faire’ or, ‘let the market stand’.
Recently we have seen other multinationals enter our banking sector. The Netherlands, the U.S.A, China, and Japan are creating markets of trade as their governments have closer ties with us now compared to earlier days.
In other words, should you want to visit Holland there are friendly trading agreements between us and that breeds sentiment. Supply in any industry is a result of the parent company (multinational) distributing to its holding companies (also known as the parent company). Choice of volume (market) is an imperative context in this analogy.
The logic of having more markets (an influx of multinationals) is as follows. Say the U.N divided $50 Trillion Cdn evenly amongst the 2 billion people that are below the Canadian poverty line worldwide, how would these people be able to buy their food should there be no Market there?
This brief analysis of Multinationals can be summed up by the following analogy;
Chrysler Motors is the Multinational. Mitsubishi is a Holding Company of Chrysler Motors. The Model Automobile ‘Eclipse’, is the Manufacturer (made in a designated plant). The Distributor is the Automobile Dealer, and, the Wholesaler/Retailer is the finance company that the customer uses in payment method.
Cost of Living and Inflation
Cost of Living
What an item is valued at in the present, in relation to what an item was valued at in the past, and what an item will be worth in the future.
For example (in Canada) – the past
1) Staples - 10 years ago is ruminatory (past, present, future). A corned beef sandwich is $4.50.
2) Luxuries - 10 years ago is ruminatory and an Automobile (median) is $20,000.
For example (in Canada) – the present
1) Staples – A corned beef sandwich costs $5.50.
2) Luxuries – An Automobile (median) is $25,000.
For example (in Canada) – the future
1) Staples – In 10 years a corned beef sandwich costs $5
2) Luxuries – In 10 years an Automobile (median) costs $30,000.
With a greater discrepancy from the top 10% income earners’ to the bottom 10%, it stands to reason that staples come down in price so that the poor do not starve, and, it stands to reason that items that are luxuries goes up in price – to accommodate the bottom 10% income earners, and pensioners. Technology is the barometer, as when the price of a technological good comes down in price the consumer market goes up, and this is paramount to education and communication.
Inflation (Ratio’s of Currency)
1. E.E.C (European Economic Community) – Euro – Equal terms in currency.
2. North American Free Trade Agreement – Greater parody today than before the Treaty.
3. African Congress – Initiative was to unify the Continent and remove economic sanctions within.
4. Asia and America – Dynasty’s – Japan in the East, and, Colombia in the West.
i.e. – Once two countries trade on par, the cost of living is reduced, as there are less tariffs (government imposed taxes on other Countries goods) – also known as Levy’s. ‘When the Levy Breaks’ is a lyric from Led Zeppelin to signify equal trade around the World, and is the foundation of the General Agreements of Tariffs and Trade.
i.e. - your tomato is equal to my tomato
i.e. - your potato is equal to my potato
i.e. – your apple is equal to my apple (equal intelligence)
Bartering is the technical term behind this mentality, and includes trading one crop for another crop. Tolerance is used as a barometer to establish this sentiment of trade, hence the Worldwide use of Gold, Silver, and Platinum as these minerals are ore (of the land – a Native principle).
With respect to technology;
1) Your Apple Macintosh is equal to my Dell PC.
2) Your Cadillac is equal to my Jaguar
3) Your Pontiac Bonneville SSE is equal to my Mercury Cougar
4) Your Citroen is equal to my Saab
5) Your Squash is equal to my Honeydew
6) Your Wheat is equal to my Cocoa Bud
7) Your Land is Equal to my Land
With respect to Markets;
1) One Market per 1,000 people is fair
2) One Market per 10,000 people is arguable
3) One Market per 100,000 people is unfair and unjust
4) One Market per 1,000,000 people is slaughter
With respect to Percentile;
1) One artist affecting 1% of 100,000 people is 1,000.
2) One artist affecting 10% of 100,000 people is 10,000.
3) One artist affecting 50 artists that affect 10% of 100,000 is 500,000, known as Aggregate or Median (in this example 50,000%).
Investment
1) Annuities – Principal investment that grows with compounding interest
2) Whole Life – Paying into a lump sum settlement
3) Term-Life – Paying into a settlement that grows with a rate of interest
that compounds
4) T-Bills – Treasury Bonds – issued by Governments at buyer currency (4% return)
G.I.C – Government Issued Certificates done over terms that can be rolled over
5) Stocks and Bonds – Trading over Stock Exchanges
‘Kiddy’ Stock Market – Collectables such as Baseball and Hockey Cards
6) Information Systems – Secure internet (private search engine)
7) Technology – An old Neve Strip Input/Output Module
8) Jewelery – Star of Sapphire in 1984 - $300 – 2008 - $3,000 (rarely loses value)
Collective Bargaining
Union – Supports workers rights – division of labor
Management – Ownership
The Union leaders and legal counsel for the Owners are pro-active in renewing existing contracts between Management and the workers. This process is called Collective Bargaining. In a Collective Bargaining agreement there are four areas that are explored;
1) Pension – Paid into a fund by the employees. Usually takes inflation into account regarding a persons’ retirement (cost of living).
2) Wages – Increases are based on the escalation of cost of living. This is similar to the pension fund but is in the short term and not the long-term.
3) Profit Sharing – Companies that are highly profitable benefit from profit sharing as it’s an incentive to their employees and frees up capital that would otherwise be spent in wages – off the top.
4) Working Conditions – Example; Free Agency – In professional sports we see employees with seniority and tenure having added rights.
Ethics are relevant in the Collective Bargaining between the Union and the
Owners
Never give a dishonest offer
Fight for only what you want
Give when you want to give
Never Steal
Be Gracious
Never Discriminate
Free - Agency
1) The NHLPA was formed in 1953 by Ted Lindsey and Doug Harvey among others. The root issue was developing a Pension Fund in protecting the players’ from low-saddling Owners. In other words 4% of each Players salary was paid directly from the players’ paychecks to the Pension Fund, guaranteeing an income for the players following their retirement. Ted Lindsey was traded by the Detroit Red Wings Owner James Norris to his brothers’ Chicago Black Hawks (from the best team to the worst team) for his involvement in establishing Collective Bargaining through the NHLPA Union. Free Agency was soon addressed.
2) In 1955 Roberto Clemente was put on Waivers by the Brooklyn Dodgers. The Pittsburgh Pirates signed him immediately as he was a Free-Agent, as reported by the Dodgers. In those days the only way a player could claim Free-Agency status was when his ball-club sent him to waivers. A sign of things to come.
3) Marvin Miller was named as the first MLBPA Union Leader in 1969. His credentials included being the chief negotiator for the Steelworkers’ Union dealing with President Lyndon Johnson in order to sidestep a National Strike.
4) In late 1971 Curt Flood, of the St. Louis Cardinals, decided to sit out the ’72 season trying to claim Free-Agency as he wasn’t happy with his arrangement with the Cards’. After the season the St. Louis Cardinals released Flood, and no team in Baseball picked him up even though he was still in his prime, he was blackballed thus ending his career.
5) In 1974, Andy Messersmith and two other Ballplayers decided to test the waters again. They sat out the whole year testing the Reserve Clause that Flood had previously done. In the Reserve Clause (established by the Owners at the turn of the 20th Century) it states that a player is bound to his team for the duration of his career (essentially slavery) unless a) He was traded, or, b) His contract expired – and teams always had the option of re-signing a Ballplayer at the end of each year. At the end of the 1974 season Marvin Miller pushed the issue before an arbitrary Arbitrator named by the Owners and Commissioner Bowie Kuhn. The root issue was; Are the three players that sat out the year still under contract? The decision made was that they were not under contract; therefore they were Free-Agents. Messersmith became the first Free-Agent signing ever (with the Dodgers).

Today in the U.S.A the average Household income is roughly $50,000 U.S. In Southeast Asia and Northeast Africa, the average yearly Household income is roughly 125,000 Japanese Yen. The U.S Dollar traded at roughly 1:500 Japanese Yen (likewise 500:1 from Yen – U.S Dollar) in 1990 (currently 150:1), therefore the people in these regions in the World take in roughly $250 U.S/Year per Household. Traditionally, Southeast China’s Labor force has been exploited by the Western World. This was supposed to end in 2001 when Great Britain left Hong Kong to Mainland China. In the last Seven Years ($250 U.S X 500,000,000 households equals $125,000,000,000,000,000 U.S X 7 = $875 Zillion U.S– as each tenth is a market, therefore adding an additional variable to the equation – Hence the added three Zero’s) the U.S.A has exploited Mainland China of $875,000,000,000,000,000 U.S Dollars, AS THE PEOPLE WERE PAYED IN JAPANESE YEN!!! At this point the money was cash converted into Chinese Yuen trading at 6.8:1 U.S Dollar giving each household in these masses a Grand Total of 1,700 Chinese Yuen/ Year to live off of.
Through analysis;
1) The U.S Dollar will be devalued to roughly 1/100 its’ current value on the World Market in relation to the Chinese Yuen, as the U.S owes them HARD CURRENCY.
2) As the U.S Dollar reaches parody to the Chinese Yuen, a DVD burner that is currently selling for $40 U.S will adjust accordingly in price to the parody exchange. Bringing the cost of a DVD burner to $272 U.S Dollars = 272 Chinese Yuen.
3) Multinationals will grow exponentially throughout the World to compensate for the dying masses World-wide.
4) Currency will no longer be associated with the Machiavelan Principle of ‘Power’. In other words people will no longer be perceived by a Dollar, as life (or Currency) is not related to the Almighty Dollar.
5) Worldwide Identification will be issued by each Government to insure a person’s wants and needs are met.

The Commodore 64 - by Moses (a.k.a Stacey Marc Goldman)
The Commodore 64
In 1979, the Commodore 64 came out into the consumer market in North America. With 64 kilobytes it was reasoned a person could document anything and everything in their home to their satisfaction. The system carried a Hard-drive, Monitor, Floppy Disk Drive, and keyboard for roughly $700/Unit. An advancement on technology it was reasoned. You can store 64 kilobytes of information. The future, it promised. In 1977 alone the company NORTEL was trading at 150/share.
Times have definitely changed as NORTEL currently trades at 7 cents/share, and as of today June 13, 2011, here in Toronto, Ontario, Canada an 8 gigabyte flashcard sells for under $15/unit. Therefore it can store 125,000 Commodore 64’s. At $700/Unit this would mean that in 1979 had you wanted to back everything up from your hard-drive to an 8 gigabyte flashcard instantaneously it would cost you $87,500,000. Even at that you’d have to download 125,000 units at separate times (meaning that you’d be backing things up for months on end/8-gig flashcard). Today there is not just one Port (or Protocol). We now see U.S.B, AES/EBU, SPIDF, even M.I.D.I (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) protocols, otherwise known as Time-codes.
Here is the dilemma when analyzing these appalling figures;
In 1979 $87,500,000 consumer dollars were required to do this lump sum work as the mainframe network was purely done through Military Application software. However, the Military Application software cost about $3,000,000. Therefore if you were associated with the North American Military in 1979, it only cost you $3,000,000 to gather your intelligence. Since it’s naïve to assume that Governments haven’t somewhat stocked and barreled this is what I’d like to know;
Say you’ve got a card that gives you access to something and everything. Does this preclude others from necessities in life? For that to occur within the World would mean this. Governments Worldwide have been exempt from being tried for not providing the Right to Life to their citizens. This is the same premise as paying $3,000,000 with a card, and, $87,500,000 without this card.
Say you had an 8-gigabyte flashcard interfaced to your Protocol Port of every Commodore 64, in 1979. This would mean that you’d have enough storage space to monitor 125,000 computers all at the same time. Through this number crunching, an 8-terabyte flashcard could monitor 125,000,000 Commodores – exponential is the relevant analogy in this context.
Have early Home Computers been made obsolete? Has the know how of how to program a computer been erased from the equation? I would still imagine that being able to program an actual instrument, super-cedes having $20 to buy the M.I.D.I trigger.
In 1979, the Commodore 64 came out into the consumer market in North America. With 64 kilobytes it was reasoned a person could document anything and everything in their home to their satisfaction. The system carried a Hard-drive, Monitor, Floppy Disk Drive, and keyboard for roughly $700/Unit. An advancement on technology it was reasoned. You can store 64 kilobytes of information. The future, it promised. In 1977 alone the company NORTEL was trading at 150/share.
Times have definitely changed as NORTEL currently trades at 7 cents/share, and as of today June 13, 2011, here in Toronto, Ontario, Canada an 8 gigabyte flashcard sells for under $15/unit. Therefore it can store 125,000 Commodore 64’s. At $700/Unit this would mean that in 1979 had you wanted to back everything up from your hard-drive to an 8 gigabyte flashcard instantaneously it would cost you $87,500,000. Even at that you’d have to download 125,000 units at separate times (meaning that you’d be backing things up for months on end/8-gig flashcard). Today there is not just one Port (or Protocol). We now see U.S.B, AES/EBU, SPIDF, even M.I.D.I (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) protocols, otherwise known as Time-codes.
Here is the dilemma when analyzing these appalling figures;
In 1979 $87,500,000 consumer dollars were required to do this lump sum work as the mainframe network was purely done through Military Application software. However, the Military Application software cost about $3,000,000. Therefore if you were associated with the North American Military in 1979, it only cost you $3,000,000 to gather your intelligence. Since it’s naïve to assume that Governments haven’t somewhat stocked and barreled this is what I’d like to know;
Say you’ve got a card that gives you access to something and everything. Does this preclude others from necessities in life? For that to occur within the World would mean this. Governments Worldwide have been exempt from being tried for not providing the Right to Life to their citizens. This is the same premise as paying $3,000,000 with a card, and, $87,500,000 without this card.

Repercussions
In the 1970’s when Video Games were introduced into our communities, the premise was simple – Kill the Alien, anything that is a threat to us - shoot an alien, shoot an asteroid, shoot a Centipede. These games were in-offensive to most. The person who played these games were expediting their rate to achieve high scores. Today, most Video Games employ hand to hand combat, and other acts of violence. When Video Games first came out there were many arcades in Mega-Cities and the usual form of playing was done standing. Today most people play their Video Games from home-systems – usually played while sitting.
In the Tom Clancy novel ‘Games of State’, the concern that he had was that Video Games would be used as a weapon to disorient people into believing that ‘Blacks’ should be exterminated, as had been employed by the ‘KKK’ – ZERO TOLERANCE TOWARDS RACE MIXING.
On the internet today, practically any and all Video Games can be uploaded and downloaded onto a persons’ hard-drive. This is different from twenty years ago when a person had to buy the software. Today, hard-drives are ports, communication devices (with internal tracking a.k.a G.P.S - Ground Positional Systems). Therefore, any electronic device or cable used in our modern day carries with it a built in limiter in the Hardware (now considered a port). This chip can be activated outside of the home (each hardware component exists within the mainframe – a software design. Modulation (or synthesis) is used as a measure of issuing commands or triggers. In a natural state these commands carry no meaning – in other words, passive resistance is a defence mechanism used to combat impulses.
Closed circuit television was employed as a premise to define each Nuclear Household with respect to our programming. In our modern day – since 1990 - we now see many 24/7 businesses. By this perspective, the psychology of our time has changed in relation to the 70’s and 80’s when almost 100% of the population worked a conformed 9am-5pm position. Since virtual reality Video Games were introduced and when the Telecommunications industry became much more de-regulated, peoples’ psychology changed. In this writers’ opinion, we’ve become de-sensitized, and we’re experiencing gross acts of violence around the World as a result. Once there is a removal of programs within an operating system, this form of sensory deprivation is essentially psychological warfare. A rational person that consciously experiences this becomes disoriented. This is Tom Clancy’s fear. At the point of being triggered, or, having information withheld, a person will naturally combat. To see things clearly is paramount. Once time and depth perception changes, this is a form of terror. A person will naturally deduce based on whatever stimulae their given (how a person feels) - kismet.

Airwaves - by Moses
Airwaves
In the 50’s airwaves hit the mainstream without headphones. We lived in North America without the pretension of actually knowing something contrary to ones’ belief. During this time we saw the Korean War and the Cuban missile crisis a few years later. In the Eighties we saw the advent of ‘the Walkman’ and many people wore headphones to fight their thoughts. Fighting ones’ thoughts outside ones’ reality is paramount to conflict. ‘When the appearance of conflict, meets the appearance of force.’ *
Today, in most North American’ Cities, people wear headphones, or hearing aids, with uncommon frequency. This is essentially defining what one thinks, or makes thought an ambiguity. The quantification of thought will always be undefined for this reason. To a musician this is known as pitch bend. This is why Bob Marley wrote ‘Have no fear for atomic energy, for none of them can stop-a-the time.’ ‘All Dogs go to Heaven’ was filmed on this premise. What would have happened if Iran was a friend of Iraq and a friend of the U.S.A (likewise Iraq), at the same time. This would mean that there was no conflict to begin with. A dictionary is of such lessons; ambiguous interpretations of context. The definition of synonym has roughly 50 meanings, each unique to different circumstances of context.

NHL Hockey Comparisons During Our Stanley Cup Finals - by Moses
Mats Sundin versus Mike Modano
Both Sundin and Modano were NHL breadwinners throughout their careers. Enormous talents, both were 1st Overall picks, one year apart. They both reached their potential throughout their careers.
Sundin started his career with the Quebec Nordiques franchise. Alongside Joe Sakic, Peter Forsberg, and Owen Nolan, Quebec looked poised to win Cup after Cup for years to come before re-locating to Colorado, where they fulfilled the Cup dream. Unfortunately, Sundin was traded to the Toronto Maple Leafs in his Quebec years’ before he could see the Avalanche Cup successes led by the aforementioned, and Hall of Fame Goalie Patrick Roy.
In Toronto, Sundin was the focal point for the majority of his career. While Sundin was never able to drink from the Cup, he did lead the Leafs to three Semi-Final Appearances in the late 90’s, early 00’s. Over his career, Mats was a consummate pro, scoring 31+Goals in a season 13 times!!! Sundin finished his career with the Vancouver Canucks and amassed 1349 Points (564 Goals and 785 Assists) in his storied career. He was the Maple Leafs Captain for just over ten years, the longest tenure of all the infamous Toronto Captains over the years.
Mats was only a +73 over the duration of his career, however, his 82 Points in 91 Playoff Games (38 Goals and 44 Assists) is more indicative of his worth to the Maple Leafs Chain. He is the ‘buds All-Time leading scorer, both in Goals, Assists, and Points.
Mike Modano was fortunate enough to win Lord Stanley’s’ Cup, and displayed grace throughout his career. Over 1499 Games, Modano scored 561 Goals and had 813 Assists for a total of 1374 Points. He scored 33+Goals in a year 9 times, and had 1-50 Goal Campaign to boot. During playoff matches, Modano notched 146 Points, scoring 58 Goals and drawing 88 Assists, over 176 Games. Mikey Mike was a +114 over his career, but compared to Sundin this figure is skewed as Modano’s Dallas Stars were a perennial playoff team, more-so than the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Modano started his career with the Minnesota North Stars, and when they re-located to Dallas, Mikey Mike became their Captain and unsung hero.
The mirror image of each-other in many ways, it would be unfair to rank one higher than the other. Oh, by the way, in international matches Modano led U.S.A to the Gold Medal in the 1996 World Cup of Hockey, while Sundin led Team Sweden to Gold in the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, Italy. These two men are truly class acts, and both will surely be enshrined into the Hockey Hall of Fame on their first ballots, soon to come.
Peter Stastny versus Dale Hawerchuk
Stastny and Hawerchuk were great players during the expansion of 1979, when Quebec, Winnipeg, Edmonton and Hartford joined the NHL. In 1980, a phenom from the Czechoslovakian League joined the NHL (alongside his brother), and we saw the Stastny’s in Quebec with the Nordiques. Peter was the more skilled, however, Anton and brother Peter (and later Marian Stastny) formed quite a duo (eventually a trio). All Peter did in his rookie campaign was score 39 Goals and add 70 Assists for a total of 109 Points and he took home the Calder Trophy that year. Peter Stastny went on to accumulate 6 consecutive 100+ Seasons between 1980/81-1985/86 (seven in his storied career). During Stastny’s career in the NHL he amassed 1239 Points in 977 Games (450 Goals and 789 Assists. When including his 263 Points accumulated in the Czechoslovakian League and Olympic play (in just 212 Games) we see that Peter Stastny totaled 1189 Games with 593 Goals and 909 Assists for 1502 Points!!! During his years in the NHL playoffs, Stastny tallied 105 Points in 93 Games, and adding that figure to his regular League stats, we see that Peter Stastny had 1607 Points in Elite League, and NHL Playoffs in just 1282 Games!!! Stastny was duly voted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1998.
It was in 1981 that the Winnipeg Jets signed Dale Hawerchuk as the 1st Overall pick in the Entry Draft. Hawerchuk did not disappoint. In 1981/82, Hawerchuk scored 45 Goals and added 58 Assists, his rookie year, and he took home the Calder Trophy, as Peter Stastny had done the year prior. Slipping a little off his pace in his soft-more year Dale still managed to score 91 Points (40 Goals and 51 Assists). The next 5 years saw Hawerchuk score 100+ in each year, each year scoring 37+ Goals, and neigh the 37 Goal season he was 40+ Goals each year.
Dale finished his career with 1409 Points, scoring 518 Goals and adding 891 helpers. When including the 99 Points he scored in the Playoffs (in 97 Games), we see Hawerchuk had 1508 Points in 1285 Games Played. Hawerchuk was elected into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2001. The figures he put up may be slightly behind the numbers that Stastny put up, however, Stastny may not have had the success in the NHL that he did, had he not had seasoning in the Czech League. For that reason, I would rank Stastny and Hawerchuk on par.
Now that Winnipeg finally got it's team back, let's hope that we get another team in Quebec. All I can say for this years Hockey Playoffs is GO CANUCKS!!!
Both Sundin and Modano were NHL breadwinners throughout their careers. Enormous talents, both were 1st Overall picks, one year apart. They both reached their potential throughout their careers.

The mirror image of each-other in many ways, it would be unfair to rank one higher than the other. Oh, by the way, in international matches Modano led U.S.A to the Gold Medal in the 1996 World Cup of Hockey, while Sundin led Team Sweden to Gold in the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, Italy. These two men are truly class acts, and both will surely be enshrined into the Hockey Hall of Fame on their first ballots, soon to come.
Peter Stastny versus Dale Hawerchuk
Stastny and Hawerchuk were great players during the expansion of 1979, when Quebec, Winnipeg, Edmonton and Hartford joined the NHL. In 1980, a phenom from the Czechoslovakian League joined the NHL (alongside his brother), and we saw the Stastny’s in Quebec with the Nordiques. Peter was the more skilled, however, Anton and brother Peter (and later Marian Stastny) formed quite a duo (eventually a trio). All Peter did in his rookie campaign was score 39 Goals and add 70 Assists for a total of 109 Points and he took home the Calder Trophy that year. Peter Stastny went on to accumulate 6 consecutive 100+ Seasons between 1980/81-1985/86 (seven in his storied career). During Stastny’s career in the NHL he amassed 1239 Points in 977 Games (450 Goals and 789 Assists. When including his 263 Points accumulated in the Czechoslovakian League and Olympic play (in just 212 Games) we see that Peter Stastny totaled 1189 Games with 593 Goals and 909 Assists for 1502 Points!!! During his years in the NHL playoffs, Stastny tallied 105 Points in 93 Games, and adding that figure to his regular League stats, we see that Peter Stastny had 1607 Points in Elite League, and NHL Playoffs in just 1282 Games!!! Stastny was duly voted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1998.
It was in 1981 that the Winnipeg Jets signed Dale Hawerchuk as the 1st Overall pick in the Entry Draft. Hawerchuk did not disappoint. In 1981/82, Hawerchuk scored 45 Goals and added 58 Assists, his rookie year, and he took home the Calder Trophy, as Peter Stastny had done the year prior. Slipping a little off his pace in his soft-more year Dale still managed to score 91 Points (40 Goals and 51 Assists). The next 5 years saw Hawerchuk score 100+ in each year, each year scoring 37+ Goals, and neigh the 37 Goal season he was 40+ Goals each year.
Dale finished his career with 1409 Points, scoring 518 Goals and adding 891 helpers. When including the 99 Points he scored in the Playoffs (in 97 Games), we see Hawerchuk had 1508 Points in 1285 Games Played. Hawerchuk was elected into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2001. The figures he put up may be slightly behind the numbers that Stastny put up, however, Stastny may not have had the success in the NHL that he did, had he not had seasoning in the Czech League. For that reason, I would rank Stastny and Hawerchuk on par.
Now that Winnipeg finally got it's team back, let's hope that we get another team in Quebec. All I can say for this years Hockey Playoffs is GO CANUCKS!!!
