That's fair. I don't think the difference is laughable either, I just did not understand why that guy thought it was so funny.

Nope, dont want to waste my time doing a list but pretty much everyone on the current world cup rooster for Canada is a better hockey player than Naslund.

anyone who doesnt think that Sakic is the best player in the game doesnt know anything about hockey.

Maybe not, but one's thing for sure, you should stop betting, you could lose big money.

Just like you believe Ohlund is better than Thornton! :lol

We all have a little bit of homer in us. Ohlund a better hockey player than Thornton? Come playoff time yes (so far), but I dont truly believe Ohlund is better than Thornton.
Naslund ''not even'' in Sakic's league?
Sakic:
03-04 81GP 33G 54A 87PTS
02-03 58GP 26G 32A 58PTS
01-02 82 GP 26G 53A 79PTS
Total last 3 years:
221GP 85G 139A 224PTS
Naslund
03-04 78GP 35G 49A 84PTS
02-03 82GP 48PTS 56A 104PTS
01-02 81GP 40G 50A 90PTS
Total last 3 years:
241GP 123G 155A 278PTS
Seems to me like Naslund has outscored Joe by quite a bit over the past few years.

Try last 5 years. Try the playoffs. Not even close.
Naslund:
Gp G A P
26 7 12 19
Sakic:
Gp G A P
142 71 86 157
Naslund is quite the playoff performer.

What Naslund and Sakic did in 1998 and 1999 is irrelevent, Sakic was in his prime 5 years ago while Naslund was just a kid. We're talking about current day Tito, perhaps something you're unfamiliar with.

The top 10 or so forwards are so close in ability that it comes down to the situation they play in. Using a moronic looking head shaker to illustrate how a Sakic is vastly superior to a Naslund [or vice versa]is just a way of not backing up an arguement. Whoever claimed that Naslund was inferior to anyone on Team Canada, if I ever get a GM job, I hope you're in the league for me to trade with. Sure Naslund can't compete with Morrow,Draper, Ryan Smyth and co. [and I love those 3 players.]
I wonder sometimes, is it that important to think you're right ?

I'm guessing Naslund or else you're arguing against yourself
As for my opinion on Sakic/Naslund (even though the topic is Naslund/Forsberg)
I think if you ask any GM in the league or any person "in the know," who the most consistent players over the past 3 years have been, they'd say Sakic and Naslund. Sakic has obviously had the better career, but at this stage they're about as close as you can get when it comes to two hockey players.
