What unique achivement do Mark Messier and Moses Malone share?
they both won league MVP with two different franchises, Malone w/ Rockets and 76ers, Messier with Oilers and Rangers.

but again Gretzky has done so w/ Oilers and Kings, and Peyton Manning too with Colts and Denver so maybe it is not that unique.
