Mario Lemieux Hockey is a hockey video game for the Sega Genesis. It does not feature an NHL or NHLPA (the NHL hockey players' union) license, meaning there are no official teams in the game and Mario Lemieux is the only real-life player included.
The game uses a horizontal perspective of the rink, unlike EA's NHL series with its vertically-aligned viewpoint. As well as occasionally pausing the match for a fistfight between players, a common feature in hockey games, Mario Lemieux Hockey also includes a standalone fighting mode on its main menu.
