Ppl dismiss presidents trophy in regular season while still emphasizing players stats (even odd ones like PPG streak) and trophies in regular season. OV lead Caps to 3 regular season best finishes. Crosby - zero. Only in NA sports regular season team success is dismissed while celebrating players regular season stats at the same time. Always found it very odd...

Shame on Ovie - SHAME! - for being the centerpiece of a team that won lots of games.

Yeah, one Crosby or two good players on Crosby's salary, who knows.
This is hyperbole obviously, but it was Maxime Talbot beating Detroit with 2 goals in game 7 SCF, with Crosby sitting injured, which won the first cup. And next two it took Phil the Thrill addition to get those cups. And there was Geno too.

Oh, So Sid didn't win the Cup all by himself.
A Stanley Cup team with more than one superstar? Wow, theres a first.

Talents are not comparable at all.

Malkin:
2006-07 NHL Calder Memorial Trophy
2008-09 NHL Art Ross Trophy
2008-09 NHL Conn Smythe Trophy
2011-12 NHL Art Ross Trophy
2011-12 NHL Hart Memorial Trophy
2011-12 NHL Ted Lindsay Award

Backstrom:
0

In fact Ovi created one of the most prolific secondary assistant player of all time.
#6 all-time by A2/PG (min 1000 gp)

you are trying way too hard

in all seriousness, even though you are a hockey genius and are trying to point out that Sid is not as good as the world thinks he is. I appreciate you sharing your superior hockey knowledge. But little old me can trust my own eye test.
Sid Crosby is in anybodys top 6 all time.
OV great as he is ..... not ranked above Sid. imo

I'm not trying. You came here to discredit Ovi. I have zero posts in Sid's milestone thread.
'the world thinks' overused phrase in western media hype machine, it's almost never the truth.

No I replied to the post that was all about Sid ruining MaLkins career . But when it come to Sid and OV. With me it's not either or.
Ovechins endurance is off the charts . His physical game almost doesn't get enough credit because of his scoring abilities are so good.
I just think Sid beats him by a nose. And he plays center.
But I can see fans and some of my friends point on picking OV over Sid.
At their peaks it was that close.
Like Wayne and Mario
Bossy and Lafluer
Sakic and Yzerman.
Forsberg and Lindros
Hasek and Roy
Leetch and Bourque
Makar and Hughes

Cheers
