Show off your 5 Greatest Players of All Time

I know the list is always different one way or another but the top 5 seem to be the same if from the Hockey Hermit (http://www.hockeyhermit.com/best-hockey-players-of-all-time-top-50-greatest-nhl-stars-ever) or the Hockey News (http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_100_greatest_hockey_players_by_The_Hockey_News). I decided to use the Hermit for my top 5 as the Hockey News had Steve Yzerman 78 and Eric Lindros 54.

#5 - Maurice "The Rocket" Richard

#4 - Mario Lemieux

#3 - Gordie Howe

#2 - Bobby Orr

#1 - Wayne Gretzky

We could debate this list forever. Pulled all 5 over the years. Have pulled multiple in all over the years except the Richard which is now one of my favourite cards. I know others have to have these 5 guys as well to show off. Show your top 5 if you have them all as well. Be cool to see others autos.
