I loved when Oates was with my Bruins. He set up so many players for easy goals over his career. I'm sure cam Neely appreciated him. I remember being at a game in the Boston garden. I just said out loud that Oatsie had a big head. We were sitting behind his wife or girlfriend. She actually laughed and agreed.
Great playmaker & teammate, really good passer with a very underrated shot, always worked his butt off. But he is in NO way anywhere close to Gretzky (the greatest passer/playmaker of all time, period) when it comes to passing.
I want to say, "Are you just stupid?" But let me put it another way. In his Prime would you have traded Gretzky for an in-prime anyone, including Orr? Never mind Oates.
Oatsie.... became an All-American at RPI in Troy, NY.
Oates is definitely one of the greats but if you look at the stats it's not even close with Wayne.

Only the laughs would miss this guy 😂😂😂

Glad you enjoyed it
I've always called Oates Mr Assist

great career and probably underrated as far as the great centers go, but he is no Gretzky

It’s just a compliment…nobody was saying he was a better player than Gretz.
The BEST pure passer the game has ever known.
Oates was good but better than Gretzky? C'mon. Click bait is annoying.
Adam was 42 when he retired lol
Lol😂seriously
Insanity.
Would like to seen Oates & Hull for an entire decade instead of him becoming a Bruin.
Thumbs down from me...
