And for anyone who wants to brush off his injuries like "injuries are part of the game, blah, blah", think about this....
In 88-89, Lemieux scored 199 pts and won the scoring title over Gretzky. He played 76 games that year, and it's pretty safe to say he came into his prime that year. Since that year, this is what the prime of his career looked like:
89-90 - 59 Games Played
90-91 - 26 GP
91-92 - 64 GP *
92-93 - 60 GP *
93-94 - 22 GP
95-96 - 70 GP *
96-97 - 76 GP *
* won scoring title
