Please let this thread end after my post. First of all, crosby and malkin don't even play on the same line together! crosby has not played with great wingers at all until this tournament. Second of all, the high sticking penalty was a complete accident. Orpik knocked him over and as crosby was falling his stick accidentally came up and hit him. Also, crosby is more of a playmaker (although this year he is scoring like crazy). being a playmaker means he isnt expected to score every game. He had 3 assists int he norway game and imo has been one of canada's best players so far.

Sid the Kid has done more for Hockey in the past few years than anyone since The Great One and Mario..............
Why anyone would bash him simply amount's to anger with a refusal to recognize his greatness in ALL aspects of the game...
Ovechkin has done much more for hockey, especially in terms of popularity in the States. They are both great players, but Canada & Pittsburgh didn't need Crosby to be hockey-crazy, they already were. Ovi has brought MANY new fans into the game because of the way he plays. The Caps are the most entertaining team to watch, and that is mainly because of the Great 8. Of course the NHL would love Crosby to be the "face of the league" blah blah blah, but Ovi is the one ushering in the new era of the NHL.

really? Tell me how bad ovie hurt his team in the Pittsburgh series last year... Guy shoots 1,000 times a season, Crosby makes his team better by actually sharing the puck and WINNING. When Ovie wins a cup, then come talking...

Ovi also did not have the supporting cast Crosby had last season... you can't possibly say Ovi shoots too much, this isn't basketball, good things happen when the puck flies toward the net. With Knuble, Semin and Backstrom all having good years, and Theo actually playing decent in net the Caps have a great shot at the Cup this year.
