A recent poll (ESPN the mag) of 50 NHL players says 73% think Ovi is the best player in the league. But what do those guys know......

WHO IS THE BEST PLAYER IN HOCKEY?

Alex Ovechkin, Capitals LW 51%

Nicklas Lidstrom, Red Wings D 11%

Evegni Malkin, Penguins C 7%

Pavel Datsyuk, Red Wings C 7%

Jarome Iginla, Flames RW 5%

Henrik Zetterberg, Red Wings C 5%

From last year, NOT EVEN CLOSE. Crosby tied for 8th at 1.9 percent.

And this isn't 50 players, its 324.

Putting aside the fanboy "and it's not close" crap, it is close. To those of us without a rooting interest in the two teams, valid arguments can be made both ways.

This ain't the politics forum, cockboy. If you don't believe me pick up a copy of the ESPN the mag........

P.S. Suck it (in advance of you seeing the article)


However, I will admit that IMO even if Criesby was the best player in the NHL, most players wouldn't vote for him b/c they don't respect his puusyness.....

Read scouting reports on Cindy before he came in the league and althogh they all mention incredible skill, they will also mention the idea that he was whiny. Sorry, just the facts.....

I know that draws alot of disrespect from the fans of the NHL, so imagine it does form players as well.....

Nobody hates Jenny that much despite the fact that he's a thorn in the side of many teams. There isn't even that much hate for OVI despite the fact that he's a dirty player. For some reason Cindy garners all the hate and it comes back to the fact that he cries too much. Like it or not......

You don't think OV is hated that much? Ha! I'm pretty sure the Pens, Flyers, Canes', Blackhawks, TB, NYR, and I'm sure there are others out there that can't stand OvBITCHkin.

They don't hate him enough to not call him the leagues best player.......Why didn't Crosby finish in the top seven in the SI poll of more than 300 players???? Even I admit that I think Crosby is in the top 8 in the league. To me, it's almost like there's some prejudice against him, and I'm pretty sure there is. It's due to the reputation he carried into the league and maintains to this day: Whiner.......

Some of these posts, especially by "strap on" are hysterical! Either some of you have no clue what so ever when it comes to evaluating Crosby's talent or your just a jealous hater. I guess it comes with the territory when you're a winner like Sid.

Typical of you "strap on", I never made mention to those players polls just the ridiculous posts that uninformed people like you make.

Let's see, I claimed that Crosby was not the league's best, player polls support that idea. You're right I'm way off base......

Yep, you are way off base. Crosby is the best all around player on the planet and he's a winner but Sabre fans would have a hard time comprehending that.

I guess the guys who play against him see it differently so things like that are what makes you an idiot......but that will never change, so good luck to you, Cockboy.
