I'm bringing it up because I believe the medias immense impact on hf bandwagoners and others is sad to see. Media run the award hype. Awards are not voted in a fair way and thevnon Canadians often get discriminated against.
I agree with this. The trophies are overrated, the actual play is underrated. I agree that Crosby is Greater due to circumstances and health, but I still believe Malkin is Better.
Anyway, because the all-time lists are about who is greater - Crosby have built himself a good case and are trending his way inside top 10. Hard to rank a player while he is still playing.
Malkin on the other hand is harder since a lot of his good years he have been injured, and also trying to play through the injuries which actually led to him being under 1PPG one year.
I have him somewhere inside top 30 now. He will probably finish inside top 15 and Crosby inside top 10.
