Where's Canadian?? With the miscreants that these Crosby blogs bring out, you would think he'd be fulfilling his ban quota in a normally slow month.

Hardware doesn't matter. Cups don't matter.

Crosby is the best person on Earth playing the sport of hockey. It's pretty clear from watching him play.

What does he have to prove??

How about win a cup...there's a lot of players who sacrifice their ability to score with 200 Ft play. Kopitar on the Kings would have 100- 120 points per season if he plays on most other teams who's focus isn't on defense.

I'm speaking on general terms. That's what great players do. I said he's a great player but the best is debatable

Are you implying you wouldn't trade Kopitar for Crosby? I can have Ryan post his pretty graphs that show Crosby played in a shutdown role this year and still managed to lead the league in pts by a wide margin.

Found this on twitter a while back with the caption:
"How bad would Crosby have to be at everything not offence to not be the best forward in the NHL?"

Care to guess who the outlier is all the way to the top right?

2 Art Ross, 2 Hart, 3 Lindsay, 1 Rocket Richard, 2 Gold medals, and 1 cup, and you want him to prove himself?

Kopitar shut down Thorton, Getzlaf, Toews, on the way to the Cup and still led the playoffs in points.

No, he wouldn't.

Beg to differ, he's had 82 points four times playing in Sutters defensive system already and he's just 26 years old.

So logically, he can easily have a 20-40 point jump in a different system, right? I mean, you said it. But uh...he's never scored more than 81 points in a season, and that wasn't with Sutter.
