Anyone who thinks Brule has a chance to go #1 is dreaming. I'm a western guy and have seen more of Brule but I'm not going to be biased just cause Brule is a western kid. Crosby is the better player by quite a margin and that is the simple truth.
I agree, I have seen both play live Brule at the Canada WInter Games and at the U17s so I seen my fair share of Brule and Crosby I seen play right from Midget AAA up to now.
I would have to say that Crosby is better than Brule by a large margin. People who don't see that IMO have A. either not seen Crosby play excepts for at the World Juniors or B. Just take the fact that they are Western and they want to applaud Brule for his accomlishments there for making him a homer pick. But to who ever has seen both play there is not comparison, like I said before it is like comparing Joe Sakic to Mario Lemieux both are superstars but Mario would be taken ahead of Sakic anyday and is ahead of him skill wise by a large margin.
It is hard to explain how good Crosby really is because people have a hard time understanding that there could be an extreme special talent on the way.
