I would agree with that, although Datsyuk has never been among the elite
forwards per say, as his offensive numbers have never been all that great. Best all-around player sounds more like it; whereas I think Ovechkin and Crosby have been better forwards pretty much since the day they entered the league.
Edit: Oh and apparently Datsyuk picks mushrooms in the off-season. lol
