#87 Sidney Crosby Milestone Thread - History will be made

  • We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.

    What This Means for You:

    • If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
    • If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
    • Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
    • Our 2025 light and dark themes were lost, so we are rebuilding them. Light theme is currently available, but work in progress

    Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

    In the meantime, feel free to join our Discord Server
It doesn't get mentioned enough that Crosby's prime was played during the lowest scoring era for elite forwards in the past 50/60 years, even lower than the DPE.

Lower scoring and more defensive-oriented hockey also leads to less opportunities for superstar offensive talent to separate themselves from the pack. The top players are getting more ice-time on average these days as offense vs. defense is prioritized.
 
Crosby is on the verge of tying Gretzky for most empty net points, all-time (though Ovechkin could conceivably pass him):
