They have won plenty awards and titles just not the Cup.LOL No. not even close! They are missing a few Stanley Cups to be in this conversation.
They have not won anything.
No no, Hockey is a team sport. I am talking Division titles, Stanley Cups.They have won plenty awards and titles just not the Cup.
'anything' doesnt fly but THE THING is still missing.
By this logic McDrai havent even reached peak ROR\Tarasenko level either.
Donno.
Way better nickname for the duo though.
lol no, Drai doesn't in the same convo as the other three yet.
Its a team sport but we will judge success for duos based on winning the cup or not. Got it.No no, Hockey is a team sport. I am talking Division titles, Stanley Cups.
Not talking secondary assists.
Because both crosby and malkin are far better players ainec. Especially crosbyYou mean the Draisaitl that is the reigning art ross, hart, and ted lindsay winner?
The Draisaitl that is #2 overall in points over the last 5 years?
Why doesn't he belong in the conversation?
People will poo-poo the idea they still have to prove it in the playoffs, but the bottom line is one of the biggest reasons for Crosby/Malkin's status is because they were able to propel their team to deep playoff runs and championships.
That 2009 Pens Cup winner wasn't any more "stacked" than the Current Oilers club. Yet Crosby and Malkin almost singlehandedly (or whatever you'd call 2 people doing it) carried that team to a championship by elevating not just their own performances, but the performances of the players they played with.
