Crosby vs the flyers (crosby is too good for this league)

[Jaded-Fan]

They had Crosby's picture in every urinal at Wells Fargo Center. I'd say that all worked out really well.

I wonder if their fans have better aim than their team.

 

[Tage2Tuch]

Funny how quiet he is. 4 point game, but I didn't see him except when he scored.

Past round 1 Crosby's still under PPG in his career.

You didn’t see him making all those passes on the power play?

I get what your saying but unless u just watched highlights it’s hard to miss someone like him lol

 

[Bouboumaster]

IMO, the 5 best players of all time are: Gretzky, Lemieux, Orr, Howe and finally Béliveau.
But I think this year, Crosby will finally take the place of Big Bill.
What an amazing player. He's so good it's almost unfair.

and in this case, he's in most of the highlights too

Quiet? Uh okay, drew 2 penalties, had 4 points and shutdown the Flyers top line.

Every player in the NHL other than Crosby and Malkin are under a ppg in the playoffs even with the 1st round included. Do you know how hard it is to be at a ppg in this era?

Draisaitl is higher than a PPG

Draisaitl is higher than a PPG

I'm sure there are a bunch of players over 1.0 who have played a small number of games.

I use this for reference which has a minimum games requirement (not sure what the requirement is): NHL Active Playoff Leaders and Records for Points Per Game | Hockey-Reference.com

Oh okay fair enough, and yes Crosby and malkin are playoff beasts

 

[Nathaniel Skywalker]

171 points in 152 playoff games in this era is amazing. This isn't the 80's. Those numbers are ridiculous.

And just think about the times he “struggled” think he went goalless in 2014 for like ten or eleven games and only
Had a handful of assists in that stretch. He also was quiet I believe in the ecf vs Boston in 2013 but I could Be wrong. I just know the pens were swept.

So if he would of just done well there he could have closer to 200 pts so yeah it’s crazy

 

[Tage2Tuch]

I’ve never liked the penguins they were always a top 5 team to hate cheer against.

Still are.

But for the last six or seven years I just have loved watching Crosby. I always cheer for him to do well (if the pens are gonna win anyway) it’s hard not to respect that kind of talent and I like seeing good players do well for the most part. Unless your a player on my top three most hated teams that is. Canucks leafs canadiens

Haha yes

 

[Crosbyfan]

I think it's flyers fans putting that in the urinal

not people from the arena

correct me if I'm wrong

You are no doubt correct, but LOL at anyone from the Flyers organization admitting it was them

 

[NeedleInTheHay]

Sid truly feels the love, and loves them back.

What a garbage franchise.

 

[Plub]

I can't get myself to hope the Penguins lose because of Malkin and Crosby. Two of the best players to ever play the game, always a treat to watch them and they both play the right way.

When's the next time you guys think we'll see a duo like them in the NHL? Likely never. All they do is win and you have to respect that and just how unique it is.

 

[The Shovel Penguin]

It's another day at the office for him.

 

[Nadal On Clay]

Draisaitl is higher than a PPG

McDavid is not.

Draisaitl > McDavid.

it would be interesting to see how Crosby's PPG after round 2 stacks up against Ovechkin's.

 

[SomeDude]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't "Crosby sucks" the first thing the Flyers crowd began roaring when the teams hit the ice? Do they usually do this? Why not just cheer for your team and your players? Why give him that attention? Stupid crowd.

It’s not surprising that the founding fathers decided to move the capital to a literal swamp than keep it there.

 

[Zen Arcade]

It's another day at the office for him.

It happened in DC before.

Right around the same time a group of Caps fans were passing out pacifiers to mock Crosby. Became being an adult sucking on a pacifier makes the other person look bad.

 

[ronduguayshair]

It’s amazing to think the flyers fans gave Mario a standing ovation when he came back from cancer yet they treat Crosby the way they do. I personally think this generation of Flyers fan are losers because they’ve always been losers.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

McDavid is not.

Draisaitl > McDavid.

McDavid has zero points after you discredit them all too, what a bum.

 

[authentic]

It's fitting that Forsberg is in the building today because Crosby matches him in career playoff games and now is only one point off his career playoff totals.

Edit: They are now tied at 171 points each - Crosby (61G, 110A) and Forsberg (64G, 107A).

Amazing. Crazy that Forsberg has more goals too. Both the best playoff players of the past 25 years without a single doubt.

Its Hitchcock who started this stuff

Granted his rookie year sid did do a ton of complaining but he had a legit gripe as he got his tooth knocked out by a hatcher high stick that wasn't called

 

[CupInSIX]

Soak it up like a Sidney picture in a urinal
Crosby is doing things this year that we're gonna look back on and marvel at.
