My Take
Esposito is a bona fide legend, and his record speaks for itself. Five Art Ross Trophies as the NHL's top scorer is a scoring instinct that borders on the supernatural, backed by two Hart Trophies and two Stanley Cups with Boston. Eighteen seasons across Chicago, Boston and New York, then a move to the broadcast booth for Tampa Bay, show a man who never really left the ice. The Order of Canada confirms how deeply his country embraced him. What I admire most is the single-minded devotion: hockey was not his job, it was his life, and it still is.
