Get EDUCATED. Here’s the list of the top five point scorers in NHL history.<\/h1>\n

There are few debates in sports that are settled before they are even talked about.<\/p>\n

Hockey’s greatest player is definitely one of them.<\/p>\n

We all know it’s Wayne Gretzky, “The Great One.”<\/p>\n

A great sports fun fact is that the Gretzky were formerly the top point getting brothers in hockey history. Wayne has 2,857 points, and his brother Brent has four career points.<\/p>\n

So we all know who is number one in all time points, but who else ranks in the top five?<\/p>\n
