It is not a fair comparison, though. Put Ovechkin in the 80s, but with the same development and training as was common for players of that era, and he is definitely not anywhere near as good as he is today. Likewise, if Mike Bossy had been given the advantages of technology and training that helped to make Ovechkin what he is, who knows how good he could be?
