Yep I posted that earlier. I believe Crosby is 29 and 0 now. I also think that is just his last 29 games not his entire career. The stats were reported before the 1st finals game during the telecast.

Have to really laugh hard when I read other countries are closing the gap.
Pretty sure you recalled incorrectly. That stat was definitely true for Crosby's line though in Sochi. And Toews' line was scored against this WCH (so was Crosby's)

That group has been unbelievable. I hope he next wave of players, led by McDavid will be able too match what this group has done.
Those stats give these winning %'s:
Price 1.000 (16g)
Toews .979 (49g)
Weber .952 (43g)
Getzlaf .934 (48g)
Doughty .912 (35g)
Crosby .900 (50g)
Bergeron .881 (43g)
Perry .846 (40g)
By contrast both Orr & Lemieux were .857, albeit in only 7 & 9 games respectively.
And Gretzky was .736 in 61 games.
If we give a 20 or so game minimum, which would exclude Price for now, does anyone know how that would rank Toews, etc, against the best in history, including the Soviets? I would think Tretiak has to rank up there.

Indeed the old Soviet teams would rank high but the asterisk is, there were no other pro players involved plus it had a few more countries than just Russia represented on its team as well.
The only league which would be on fair comparison would be the Jrs. And Russia is indeed fairly close to Canada when looking at the WJ C history. Albeit we have to add the Soviet wins with Russia's.

Maybe you should look instead at how many players from non traditional countries (ya know... Not Russia, Sweden, Finland, Czech...) were playing in the NHL 20 years ago, compared to how many there are today.
Do you think that they could have made a Team Europe in 1996? If that's not a better indication of "closing the gap", I don't know what is...
More on this: did you know that for the first time in history in 2015-16, less than 50% of players in the NHL were Canadians? That percentage was 75% just in 1990...

Canada has by itself way more registered hockey players than anyone else in Europe, BY FAR. 600k+ vs 100k at best (Russia). Switzerland, as an example of non top 6 nations, is at 26k: 1 Swiss player for 24 Canadians. Narrowing the gap becomes way more difficult just for that.
But if the steady decrease in Canadian players in the NHL + the increase of players from all sorts of nations in the NHL continues (seeing that it has been in place for nearly 30 years, there's no reason to doubt that it would), sooner or later it should weigh in as a factor to narrow that gap. It will probably take a long time though.
