Talent wise, how do the potential top three picks of 04 compare to the potential top three picks in 05? I know Crosby and Ovechkin are close but what about the other high end talents?
...and Malkin's doesn't?pittengineer said:2. Malkin
Then prob the 3 and 4 are prob from the 05' draft, then Olesz. Im not thrilled with Olesz even though he could become a good player. His concussion history scares me.

moosefan said:as for Anikeenko and Barker comparisons, I have seen both play live and Anikeenko blows Barker out of the water for almost every aspect of the game. He was the best d-man at this years U-17s and is impressive at both ends of the rink and with physical play.
I think besides Ovechkin the top 5 for 2005 are better.

czechhockeyfan said:What kind of history!? He had only one concussion, at WJCH. That´s all.
Sting004 said:I'd rate Crosby a bit higher than Ovechkin. He just seems like a more complete player who will always put up big numbers. With the change to North American hockey, Ovechkin might not be as dominant. We'll see.

Crosbyfan said:Ovechkin is arguably/arguably not one of the top fifty 18 year olds of all time. Sid is arguably the best 16 year old of all time.

Now THAT is biased.

Crosbyfan said:Edit: Just to add fuel to the fire; Ovechkin was arguably/arguably not one of the top fifteen 17 year olds of all time!
