There is not one hockey player in the world that can protect the puck on a break better than Crosby. His goal last game was great as he used his arm to block a stick check, and this one was his leg. Unbelievable puck protection.

Why is Crosby so good haha honestly.... the way he protects the puck (like someone just said) is incredible and he just seems so much more mature than an 18 year old out there on the ice. woooo! keeper going Canada!!!! :yo:

He's playing, he has taken a penalty or two. He's playing tough and on the edge, he's doing OK. You can tell he's a hard guy to play against.

Crosby is the best.

Take the best parts of Gretzky, the best parts of Lemieux, the best parts of Howe, combine it all, and you have got Sidney Crosby.

He is the best player in the world as far as I'm concerned, but it's over the top comparing him to the three greatest forwards in hockey history.

you stole my thunder. No one will ever question how good Crosby is but to compare him to arguably the 3 greatest players in NHL history? A bit much. besides Crosby will never be the physical force Howe was.

Cool, thanks. His game is really coming along and playing with that edge has really helped him. He was too much of a gentle giant before but he needs to play bad *** and punish guys.

The Canada broadcast isn't biased. Is that the same with USA Hockey's broadcast?
