I think Crosby is the better player today, but you can't take away from Ovechkin just because you don't like his persona or playing style

I think not liking his playing style is a huge reason to take away from Ovechkin, especially in this argument. The fact that he is a selfish, one-dimensional player is a huge reason that he is not close to Crosby.
He did have some undeserved awards early in his career though and I can't take those away from him.
