No clue wtf happened to OV. Wasnt even the best player when Crosby wasn't playing. Guy just doesnt play like he used to.

Malkin or one of the Sedins is still gonna win the Art Ross.

And this is coming from a guy who owns a Sid jersey

Well they do have a 25 point head start or whatever.

Clearly overlooking PHIL though.

Hell, the Sedins need to catch the SECOND leading scorer on the Leafs before they can think about catching PHIL.

No, maybe at the end of the season, but I still see Ovie as the more skilled player, he just doesn't seem to care or have the heart or something. It doesn't help that he is getting as many minutes as his third line because his coach wants to prove how deep their team is.

Oh and this isn't out of some sort of hate for Penguins or anything like that, I loved Lemieux and also love Malkin, I just really don't think that Crosby is the more skilled player.

You realize Crosby missed half a season last year and still matched Ovechkin in goals, right?

**Red Viper** · 11-22-2011, 06:04 PM

You realize that was the first year he didn't have 45+ goals right? You realize that would have only been Crosby's second year with 40+ goals. Basing everything off stats is stupid as well, I never go by just stats alone, the guy way someone plays also has to be accounted for, that is one of many things that will always hold Ovie back as well since he plays me first instead of team first like Crosby does.

**-Mystery-** · 11-22-2011, 06:16 PM

Crosby could have 40+ goals every season, but he doesn't play with a me first mentality.

There is no argument that can be made that Ovechkin is a better player than Crosby.
