I don,t think so. Crosby is more gifted offensively but Toews is a better all round player. I am pretty sure if you asked all of the GM's in the league as to which player they would choose to build around , it would be surprisingly even.

It would start and end with Sid. .......Ney

DOMINOES

I doubt it, Toews is a better leader and not as concussion prone.
- HawkfaninBC

I would have to agree. At this point, there isn't a single player I would trade Toews for. Now, if the Hawks are in a cap pinch, it would be intriguing to trade him for the 2015 #1 overall pick....during the 2015 offseason

German Mennonite name and apparently if you google it someone spent the time to write a whole blog on why its said as Teys

Toews is a Nazi? Can't say I'm shocked. I see why he and Kesler really go at it now.

I don't care about cap hits in this instance, I'm taking Crosby over anyone. Toews is definitely top 3.

But Crosby is a waaaaaaaaaaay better player
- FinAddict

He is better, but Chicago has already shown that their team with Toews is a winning formula. Woudn't want to break that up. His cap hit is lower (right now), but likely will be a little lower as well.

I'd be absolutely shocked if 100% of them didn't say Crosby

Crosby would probably win a lot too with Kane, Sharp, Hossa, Keith and Seabrook.

Good players, but Toews has a better supporting cast.

Luongo for Toews?


How come people call him Teys his name is Toes Tows . I don't get it.

Because people are assholes.

Why? They won't be anywhere near picking #1.

Because people are assholes.

Go Iggy! You losers should win with all the Bruin injuries.

- FinAddict

None of those players are better than malkin.

Even neal can be argued vs sharp etc.

U talk like crosbys supporting cast isnt elite. It is.
Pittsburgh is one the elite teams in the league.
And its certainly not just because of crosby

I agree but you can't tell me the only reason Kunitz isn't a 3rd line scrub isn't Crosby.

But I guess the B's won't have same urgency like the last time they played in Van.

Why? They won't be anywhere near picking #1.
- whipper334

The only way I would trade Toews, as Chicago, is if they are in a cap pinch and can get the number 1 overall in 2015 from whomever holds it that yr.

Still a big if, but there is your younger less concussion prone Crosby

Pitt still has a better supporting cast. Chicago is a better team, and that has a lot to do with Toews leadership. He is just like Yzerman.

No body in their right mind would trade the #1 overall pick in 2015! Nobody! Not even for Crosby... Yes I just said that!
