By the same criteria you mean:
Crosby missed games? - "Tough Nuggets"
Malkin, Stamkos, Tavares missed games? - "They need to be paced out to show that Crosby's win this year wasn't as great as the difference in points would indicate."
Yeah, sounds about the same.
No, I mean tough nuggets by the criteria that anytime someone other than Crosby wins the Art Ross it's because Crosby was injured that comes out of your mouth over and over throughout this thread.
By the criteria that supposedly Crosby should have 5 Art Ross in his trophy case now instead of 2.
That he would've won in '11 and he prolly would have but saying he would've had 132 points while doing it is a leap.
He had 66 points in 41 games and was on pace for 132 points. It's a huge difference!
This past season at the 41 game mark he had 58 points. He was on pace for 116 but that's NOT what happened, he finished the season with 46 points in his final 39 games for 104 points.
I can agree that this season would prolly have been his 4th, but I can't agree that he actually would have beat Malkin in 2012, just like he DIDN'T beat Malkin in 2009.
The biggest thing I took offense to that you posted was your brushing off of Malkin's '12 Art Ross.
The ONLY way one could brush it off like that is by wearing Crosby coloured glassed.
