NHLPA poll: Crosby most complete player...again.

Love Roy, and think he's the best goalie all time. But I can't put him ahead of Crosby

Well, as I said, my criteria are a bit different from most people's. Multitudes of kids (especially in Quebec) wanted to be like Patrick Roy when they grew up, and became goalies because of it. Crosby is an incredibly good player, but it's not like kids needed his example to decide to play centre.

If PIT clinches a playoff spot, Sid better get a gigantic pile of Hart votes. Would be hard not to consider him the "player most valuable to his team."

Y'all talkin' bout Roy? Second best goalie after Hasek, Roy? Let's throw it over to third best, Marty...

I wasn't arguing with you - your opinion is perfectly valid. And you're right about the kids.
