Does anyone else think that it's useless to compare two players who are that different? It's quite obvious that Ovechkin is an elite power forward and Crosby is a playmaker of such. And Washington isn't even that bad, they have players who can support Ovechkin.
its because everyone feels the need to compare players in sports. Like in basketball. Everybody is expected to be the next Jordan. They can't just be the first Lebron James lol. Yea they are different, but I think people are really just trying to compare the numbers as of right now. They are both amazing players though. I would give the nod to Sid on being the best of the two when the careers are over. Even though they have different styles of playing.
Washington has 60 points in 58 games, Pittsburgh 69 in 57, and the Pens haven't had Crosby in weeks. I understand and agree with the point you're trying to make, but suggesting that Ovechkin has equal talent around him as Crosby is just stupid. We'll have a better comprehension of who's better in 10 years when we see who's lead their teams to more championships, but right now, the Penguins are a much better team than the Caps, rendering any relevant comparison quite difficult.
I'm not saying that the teams have equal talent but you don't have 20 men on the ice at the same time do you? I'm saying that Washington has enough talent to put some good players on the same line with Ovechkin. Semin, Backstrom, Nylander and Kozlov are good offensive players who can definitely help him. I'm just saying that Crosby's linemates are not spectacular compared to Ovechkin's.
yeah but also assist are sometimes better than goals because then that means that you are more of a team player other than just wanting to go in and score for yourself
the only reason senators fans would be booing crosby is because they're jealous of his skills.. thats the only reason anyone would boo him because hes obviously an amazing player.
crosby is an awsome player 20 years old 1st in points this year. He is why the peg legs are in the playoffs at all.Now the senators are the best allround team out there. they're out playing hitting shooting SCOREING the penguins this series is OVER ...BYE BYE Pittsburg ...
HAY GUYS EVER HEARD OF SIDNEY CROSBY I HEARD HE PLAYS THE HOCKEY OKAY
Honestly, let's stop talking about Sidney Crosby. He's good, but plenty of players are good. Refs and announcers seem to believe he's a saint, and it's tiring.

crosby isnt a goal scorer, ovechkin is
crosy has more assistes than goals, OV has more goals
but id say all around ovechkin is better besides his ridiculous salary, he is a one man team.
