I've said it before, if he's playing in 1985, he's scoring 100 goals and 250 points.

Quality > Longevity. Crosby is better than Howe.

Its just so impossible to compare different generations so I usually don't even attempt it.

Ok, just let me know when Crosby wins 6 Hart's and 6 Art Ross Trophies. He has a long way to go to reach that.

He won all six in 11 years btw, so don't account that to longevity.

Jesus Christ Crosby, stop blocking shots. You don't have to pull an Ovechkin and be totally out of the defensive play but you don't need to be in front of the net stopping shots.

That period just inspired me to do some shopping on StubHub. Can't wait to see game 6 on the Island.

Hes back for the third.

On another note though, that was the single most embarrassing 'backcheck' I think I've ever seen. I know Adam Oates has said he will never be a 'yelling or screaming' coach, but you have to take some skin off OV's ass for that. That was ridiculous.

Iginla has a crush on Crosby. He just seems like a giddy school girl playing with him.

Crosby could turn a blind man into a 40 goal scorer.

Pretty sure Iginla is being benched because he wasn't attacking the puck in the defensive zone.

He's just not playing aggressive enough defensively.

Good game for the Pens, Vokoun has looked solid. Now to close it out on the island.

Vitale swung first. He deserved that cross check in the face.
