I like it, it gives flare to the season. A lot of you guys are taking what he siad wrong, he is just saying that it isn't a sure bet that Crosby will win the Calder...
Well that is one way to look at it,but most guys are
not going to answer the question that way.It could also be interpreteted as
"I'm so good that by the end of the season I'll make everyone forget about
Crosby." By saying ;"well lets see....." he's at least saying "the attention matters",
so that's my reason for the jealousy remark.
I might tend to think that he should get the benefit of the doubt because of
the language barrier but it seems like most of what I've heard from him is
pretty arrogant.Also others times he has been asked about Crosby(wjc for
example)he had a much different response than Crosby had when asked about
him.Crosby was all class,but not AO, he acted like he was bothered by the
question and didn't have enough respect for Crosby.
For the record I have only praised Ovechkin as a player.There are many threads
even the Ovechkin vs. Crosby type threads that will attest to that.
