Sidney Crosby

I know that not too many people read this forum or post here, but I want to get your opinion on Sid the Kid.

Where would you rank him right now among the best in the NHL?

How good do you think he'll be?

Right now, you could make a case for him as the best player in hockey. I wouldn't say he is, but you could make the case.

As for where he'll end up, I don't think it will be on the level of Gretzky, Lemieux, and Orr, but rather Hawerchuk, Gartner, and Gilmour.

Not that that's a bad thing.

Sid was the second best rookie last year and he's still second best to Ovetckin(sp?). If they switched places I don't think Sid would be putting up the same numbers. If they did switch teams we would be talking about Ovetchkin as the next coming of the Great One.

mc, I agree that Ovechkin is a great player. The only reason that I put Sidney a little higher is his ability to make others around him better.


that being said, I will admit that I haven't watched Ovechkin as much. I just see him as more of a goal scorer than someone that opens up the ice and assists as much.

Sid just has a better supporting cast. Ovetchkin has to try to score more because the players around him are not nearly as good as what Sid has around him. With that being said Ovetchkin still put up comparable numbers.

Ovechkin is more physical then Crosby from what I've seen and seems to an all-around player on the ice.

I believe that Crosby at this time is a better player than Ovechkin. Ya he does have a better caset to work with but most of that reason is because he is playing great and making the players around him better. Ovechkin is a great player and maybe would be a better player if he had a few more people to work with but I think that Crosby has just been great this year. He has been skating great and making great plays but he also got very lucky on few occasions to pick up a couple extra points.

I don't believe this has anything to do with the questions asked at the top of the thread.

I'm a Pens fan, and I hate Crosby (long story, don't ask). But he's still the best player in the league right now, top 3 at the very worst.

Ovechkin is still better. Crosby is good but wouldn't be as good if he didn't have players like Malkin around.
