The only player with more points than Dale Hawerchuk between 1981 and 1994 was Wayne Gretzky. One of the finest to have ever played the game and was at the core of the Canada Cup-winning roster in 1987. RIP Dale.

RIP Dale Hawerchuk. Met him at the ‘86 All Star game in Hartford. Great guy, signed autographs for my cousin and his friend. Great player, HOFer.

RIP Dale Hawerchuk. You were a role model on and off the ice for so many. I just finished graduating from the University of Manitoba the year you were drafted by the Jets and I remember how excited everyone was.

This is one of the most famous goals in Canadian hockey history and it doesn’t happen without Dale Hawerchuk winning this faceoff late in the third period. RIP. pic.twitter.com/OqiJBaW6tT

Classic hockey moment from my childhood.
Canada tied 5-5 with buck 30 to go. In zone face off, Canada puts out line with 3 of the best centers to ever play the game — Hawerchuk Gretzky Lemieux. This happens…
RIP Dale Hawerchuk

Really sad to hear of Dale Hawerchuk’s passing. What a great hockey player! Canadian legend! RIP Ducky!

so very sorry for your loss. i grew up in wpg , and was a huge jets fan. your dad’s arrival brought the same kind of electricity that bobby hull brought to the city – it was so exciting to watch dale hawerchuk play – he made winnipegers feel like winners. RIP
— true_north (@real_true_north) August 19, 2020
He played all a time when Wayne was rewriting record books and Mario was the next phenom up. If he played today much like Yzerman they’d best in class. RIP Dale Hawerchuk.

So sad hearing about the passing of Dale Hawerchuk today.
I was lucky enough to have had breakfast with Dale and @SNKenReid.
Later that day I was lucky enough to be his line mate at the Hockey Heroes weekend in 2018.A true legend.
RIP Dale.#HawerchukStrong

Dale Hawerchuk was an icon here in Winnipeg, our own Wayne Gretzky. The Jets of the late 80’s/early 90’s always seemed on the cusp of breaking through but being in the same division as the all-powerful Oilers always did us in. Ducky deserved a cup. RIP

Perhaps off brand, but RIP to Dale Hawerchuk whose name was to a young TC, the epitome of Canadian Guy names. Also besides that he was a wonderful hockey player

Wow, you should definitely feel honoured @Jeremy_Roenick! RIP Dale Hawerchuk

Such a sad day to lose a legend… I always cheered for the @EdmontonOilers but I also had favorites outside of that bubble. Dale Hawerchuk was one of those guys. He was a true leader and earned the respect from his peers. Always a great example and role model for the kids. RIP.
— Brad Kelly (@BradKellyYEG) August 19, 2020
Gotta mention the passing of Hockey HOF’er Dale Hawerchuk. Remember his rookie year at the age of 18 with Winnipeg. Wow, what a player. If not for that Gretzky dude, he’s the MVP in 85 but #99 with 208 points insisted. Lighting it up in the NHL at age 18 with 103 points. RIP!
— Steve Tannen (@SportsTalk953) August 19, 2020
RIP Dale Hawerchuk. A class act and probably the best player or second best player in history to have never won a Stanley Cup. Marcel Dionne would be the other.

Dale Hawerchuk died today at the age of 57. RIP #10.
Winnipeg became a true NHL city the day of his draft. Thank you for winning the faceoff and assisting on the game winner in the 1987 Canada Cup! The other 2 forwards on the ice @ crunch time? Gretzky and Lemieux! #Manitoba pic.twitter.com/jrjz1rZWZw— Alan Carruthers (@Sluhpresident) August 19, 2020
RIP Dale Hawerchuk. 1 of my fav all time Jets. Scored many goals as a kid pretending to be him, he was awesome. His legacy as a great hockey player will live on through the generations of #NHLJets and hockey fans. Prayers up for his family, friends and fans. Godspeed Ducky

It’s days like today that I am so grateful and blessed to be able to call my dad or spend time with him. Never met Dale Hawerchuk but it’s clear from the out pouring he was special and an amazing father. RIP. #hawerchukstrong #callyourfamily #appreciateeverday

As I remember,reflect on my time with Dale Hawerchuk..I think of the quote from Maya Angelou: “I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” Ducky always made us feel great! RIP my friend

This Stephen Brunt tribute to Dale Hawerchuk is fabulous. What a player and from everything I’ve seen and read today one helluva good guy. May he RIP and his family find peace.
— Scott Newman (@55magnus) August 19, 2020
Us Winnipegers once had a classy and true Superstar hockey icon. No…not Bobby Hull. The new Jets have no one close in stature,skill & pride of town. Coined “Ducky” Dale Hawerchuk came as a highly touted kid and never disappointed. RIP Ducky, U R a Legend here in the Peg!

I cannot imagine having the grace of Dale Hawerchuk. I cannot fathom making those calls. RIP.

RIP Dale Hawerchuk. I had the honour of being his caddy in a charity golf tournament as a youngster and he was a gentleman. I wish I wasn’t too embarrassed when my mom asked to snap a picture of the both of us that day. We lost a good one.

Interviewed Dale Hawerchuk at Fort William Gardens 15 years ago or so. Class act. #RIP

In a nearly empty darkened arena with the Dale Hawerchuk tribute playing, how lonely it must have been for Rick Bowness.
Fans would have a moment of silence and then erupt with cheers for Dale if these were normal times. Glad to see so many tributes online. RIP Ducky.? pic.twitter.com/4Micv45Dpr

Growing up in Manitoba I was a huge Dale Hawerchuk and Jets fan… Never forget the 1985 playoffs when Macoun put Dale out of the playoffs with that questionable open ice hit…. RIP #10

RIP Dale Hawerchuk btw. He played for the Blues for a season. I didn’t realize till today when I heard the stat that from 1981 to 1994 Dale was second in total points to Gretzky during that time period.

Dette er er en bra minnevideo/nekrolog. Canada Cup og alt. Vinne droppen, Gretzky til Lemieux.
