The only reason Ovechkin has more harts is because Crosby got hit in the jawLOL Pens fans...More nominations is more valued than winning the award now.
After this season Crosby will have the better hart record. Regardless if ovy has an extra hart
Generally you have to score more goals than your opponent to win. No matter what, it's still just scoring goals to win at the end. You know, when the obvious is too obvious...
Ah yes, Crosby fans and their famous "on pace" or "what if", Ovechkin won (deservely too) it because he was healthy during all the season no matter what. He can't control what happens to his opponents. He should have won in 2010 but he lost the Hart to Henrik Sedin (and the Rocket too) because he missed games because of injuries/suspension except we won't cry on it like you (Pens fans) do with Crosby.
Except scoring goals are what will make you win games unlike whatever else you think.
Ah you guys have the memory of goldfish. Crosby was easily the best player in the world in 2013 and won the lindsay. But keep thinking a guy who literally stands still waiting for a pass is better than one of the best all around players in the world who still finishes top 5 in scoring.Ah yes, Crosby fans and their famous "on pace" or "what if", Ovechkin won (deservely too) it because he was healthy during all the season no matter what.

Ah you guys don't know what the Hart is, Pittsburgh is not Montreal the mecca of hockey then your lack of history is not surprising... Crosby deserved the Lindsay for sure, he was clearly the best player this year except the Hart is for the most valuable player to his team, not the best player and as good Crosby was this year, hard to be the most valuable player to his team when you are off ice.
Yeah and yet Ovechkin fans try to use it against Crosby lol. I remember distinctly capitals fans crying that the hart was not for the best player and changing tune as soon as Ovechkin beat Crosby.
Indeed, I remember to see some Ovie fans crying about it too but you both (Ovie and Crosby fans) are not better than each other about that.
And no one will care in 10 years, no one. All anyone will ever see is 3 to 2 when counting MVP's unless that number changes.
Exactly, it's like these people are literally showing how stupid they are for nothing else but to try and discredit Ovechkin's contribution to winning hockey games. Goals are the purpose of the game, it's how you win hockey games, you can't even argue this.

Scoring more goals than your opponent LITERALLY is what wins you games. I can't believe that I've had to write that statement 3 times in this thread.
People who actually study the game will care. Unless you wanna say Bobby Clarke was better than Crosby because he has 3 harts?
I've never seen anyone on this board bring up runner ups/placings for MVP's for players in the past in any discussion other than current players. No one cares, you either won or you didn't, No one cares who was a finalist for the Conn Smythe, you won it or you didn't.
Hart noms are a big deal lol. If you actually compare to players hart finishes are used quite often.
If nominations only were as valuable as winning the award then Raymond Bourque would be the greatest defenseman of all time instead of second best except he is not.
Thats because Bobby Orr is on a level with Gretzky. Ovechkin is nowhere near THAT caliber of player in comparison to Crosby.
My point was about nominations and not the level to the players.
