Poll Question:
We are one quarter of the way into the 2010 NHL regular season. Will Alexander Ovechkin catch up to Steven Stamkos and Sidney Crosby in points by the half way mark?

No, I think Stamkos will hold up and barely beat out Ovechkin and Crosby for the scoring title.
There was once a license plate in Toronto that abbreviated "Go Leafs" it read "Golfs". |

Interesting opinion. Are you predicting an injury for Stamkos or something? To be at 51, he needs just 18 pts in his next 20 games. After running at a 1.7 ppg clip over the first 21 games, that's a serious decline! I'll be surprised if he's not at 60+ after 41 games!
Even more interesting is your prediction that Crosby is gonna get a grand total of 9 more points in his next 19 games? Slump? Injury? Or do you not even look at stats??? |

Crosby is definitely not overrated . . . he is a phenomenal, top two or three player, and has been for the last few years. Same as Ovechkin.
What is in question is whether Stamkos belongs in the same company, after a very strong sophomore season and this year's incredible start.
We'll see; but I think he'll be just a step below the first two.

Crosby is over-rated in some aspects, like his play making skill but is under rated in other areas like his snipe. I still question how Crosby gets 110 points a year and Kunitz only gets 40. Powerplay would change about 40 of those points but wouldn't Kunitz get at least 60. That is how Crosby is Over-Rated doesn't use all his players that are not equal to him.

| WOW take your personal opinion and stick to what is happening on the ice. I'm so tired of hearing the banter about Crosby. He is the benchmark in the league for leaders and skilled players period. If he got hurt the penquins would be lost. Stamkos will challenge Crosby and Ovie is always a threat too. I would think by the style of play of these three that it would be Ovechkin that is at risk of injury. I hope they all stay healthy because they are fun to watch!!! |

He got hurt a few years ago and they did well without him..

Utemin, the year you are thinking of is the 07/08 season. Crosby played only 53 games. But, he scored 72pts.
He missed 21 games from January 18 to March 4 due to a high-ankle sprain, played two games, then sat out the next 7 games. Sure, the Penguins did fine without him, but helped having another superstar to step up in Malkin, and MA Fleury playing consistently.
Crosby is not overrated, he's just over-marketed. |
