Lord said:BTW Ovechkin and Malkin comparision reminds me a lot discussion about Kovalchuk vs Spezza three years ago. Didn't see Spezza in juniors, though.
But here, in Russia, i 've watched both Malkin and Ovechkin several times. Ovechkin is complete player, who seems to be ready to play in the NHL at the moment, and Malkin is still player in making, who needs some time to develope. And every comparision should be based on how Malkin could progress further, IMO.

Jaded-Fan said:Very good to hear from someone who has seen both first hand, to be honest your thoughts on both, 'Ovechkin is complete player, who seems to be ready to play in the NHL at the moment, and Malkin is still player in making, who needs some time to develope,' is pretty much what I took from what the scouts have said, and I think is how most fans, even we rose colored glasses wearing Pens fans, have seen Malkin. Which is why if given the opportunity the Pens (and everyone else I think) would take AO over Malkin, take the sure thing rather than the promise of something. That said, I still do not see how everytime someone says something good about Malkin AO people seem to have to feel the need to tear Malkin down and disregard that potential people in the know seem to see. It will not make AO a better player to do so, nor is it being rose colored glasses wearing to comment that Malkin seems to have AO type potential in most scouts eyes.
