Why don't you make your argument that the Wings > Pens? No one will disagree with you then.

Nope. Malkin is still on the team, and the Islanders are still awful. And the Pens have been pretty damn good at home the past few weeks.

I not the biggest Crosby fan, I think Malkin is the better player, but Crosby not being a top 10 player is laughable.

hockeytown11 · 02-25-09, 06:36 PM

Top 5 no chance,top 10 I will give you debateable,my opionion he is top 13,nowhere close to top 5,Ovechkin is 1 by a decent margin then Zetterberg and Datsyuk along with Malkin round out top 4

Quit putting words in my mouth,I NEVER said Crosby wasnt an elite player I just said I can name 10 as good or better and I did,He is a top 15 player for sure but top 5 isnt even debatable,Hossa,Zetterberg,Datsyuk,Ovech kin and Malkin are top 5.

IT ISN'T DEBATABLE? Are you f-ing kidding me? How biased can you get?

Three Red Wings among the top 5 players in the NHL and it isn't debatable. What a homer.

It's pretty much Malkin, Crosby, and Ovechkin (in any order you want), and the rest.

That's an accurate assessment. I would agree with that.

If you think Datsyuk and Zetterberg arent [sic] better than Crosby then you really are clueless,100 point seasons arent [sic] needed when you play with the greatest teams ever assembled,Datsyuk and Zetterberg could name the amount of points they wanted to put up if they were on a weak 1 line team like Pitt,Mlakin [sic] and Crosby were invisable last year when it mattered,why? Because Zetterberg and Datsyuk owned them both,if you say anything different ur [sic] in serious DENIAL

Malkin and Crosby play on different lines.

Duh

Wait, you claim to know they play on different lines, yet you call them a "weak 1 line team."
You can't even keep your story straight. Pitt wasn't a one line team this year OR last year.

Datsuk and Zetterberg are BOTH MUCH better than Crosby,period,its not even a debate.

"Datsuk". Classic.

It's not a debate? You're right. Crosby is easily better. Not debatable. You're delusional.

NYI EASILY have a chance. Their a professional NHL team... Meaning they can put together some shots and get it in the twain, while holding the worthless offense of the pens. And with Fluerys goaltending lately, NYI are quite a tasty choice

Originally posted by hockeytown11

Ovechkin,Malkin,Datsyuk,Zetterberg,Iginl ia,Lacavlier,Lidstrom,Hossa,Richards,Car ter theres 10 better than Crosby and it took about 3 mins worth of thought,I can come up with more I am sure.

Originally posted by hockeytown11

because Gary Bettman says he is good and puts him on every NHL related ad he is not top 10 sorry,funny how PITT played its BEST hockey last year when he was out and it was MALKINS team

I would agree. I think Pittsburgh will win, but the Islanders have value at +230 or better.

They certainly have a chance. About 35%, I'd say.

lol 35~!! i didnt end up betting, but i was real close. i would risked around 20 big ones looking to almost triple.

yisman · 02-25-09, 10:47 PM

no goals for the first 57 minutes and 29 seconds.

Then Sykora scored and Pittsburgh won 1-0.

So a close win, like I expected.

This thread was possibly the most entertaining of the night...I love listening to delusional fans...

yisman · 03-03-09, 01:28 PM

This guy is still trolling. I guess it was generous of him to include two non-Red Wings in his top five.

based on this post i doubt you have ever watched him play. And if you have you have no idea what you are watching.

crosby is a cry baby he is not a solid player...points are not everything....youll see in time

THANKYOU!!!
WOW THERE IS ANOTHER PERSON ON THIS FORUM WHO KNOWS HOCKEY!!

yisman · 03-03-09, 01:46 PM

Neither of you know hockey, actually.

I find it hilarious that you're complimenting someone who keeps changing his opinion, backtracking, and outright contradicting himself.

PapaGeorge · 03-03-09, 01:47 PM

ok now i did not see that..but notice i only complimented his one comment not the rest......plus....crosby ...is not my player never will be...hes un predictable
