I've heard that kid is pretty good.

The only Sidney to reach 1600

Sidney Crosby surpassed the expectations that people had for him when he was drafted.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

decent little career he’s carved out for himself

 

[NYI365]

I think he'd be damn close to 1800 points, if not surpassed, if he didn't miss 200+ games due to injuries in his career.

 

[Breakers]

He’ll catch sakic by January

Love that the assist came from back-checking and breaking up a play.

Sid has to have the most diverse highlight reel of all time.

Backhands, deflections, eyes in the back of his head passes, deking, diving, shot off the goalie’s mask, one handed, big moments, etc etc.

He absolutely did not. Still a decent pick though.

Considering when he missed those games it’s probably closer to 1900.

 

[I Hate Blake Coleman]

He absolutely did not. Still a decent pick though.

He did it in fewer games than like half of the top 10, including Sakic, Yzerman and Messier.

The only players to do it in fewer games are Gretzky, Lemieux, Dionne and Jagr.

Oh I thought you were talking about his overall level of performance in his career. I can't say I had any expectations regarding his total of pts in his career.

 

[Bouboumaster]

What a legend

Yeah, decent pick. He's only won everything that can be won in the sport.

 

[Barrie22]

Yeah, decent pick. He's only won everything that can be won in the sport.

He needs to go back in time and win the calder for that, and be sent to the AHL to win the calder cup.

I'll take the bait...what were you expecting that Sid has not lived up to?

 

[ForumNamePending]

IMHO there is a bit of a "what if" with Crosby's resume due to the health/concussion issues during the most productive period of his career, but still... Not bad!

And what would you say the expectation were for Crosby in that regard ?

He is one of the best and most hyped prospect ever.
