Buy Me a Burrito Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 You ever get the feeling that Toews is the Tom Brady to Crosby's Peyton Manning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie M. Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 I see the comparison but Crosby won early so he really doesn't get the "can't win" stuff that much. Plus he was injured a lot. Ovechkin's probably more the Peyton Manning of the NHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiji Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Did you guys know that Toews' career high in points for a single season is... 78? He's a great two-way player and leader but I've never thought he's on Crosby's level and don't get the "TOEWS IZ BETTER" claims. Crosby put up 102 points in his rookie year and even this season, a down year for him, he put up 82. He's an offensive freak of nature and on a completely different level from anybody else in the league. I wonder how McDavid's first few years will compare if you adjust for scoring inflation in the post-lockout years for Sid's numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death From Above Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 On McDavid the official Oilers rookie scoring record is 75 which is held by Jari Kurri (since Gretzky was never classified as a rookie due to the NHL/WHL shenanigans). It will be very interesting to see if that record falls because that one has been on the books for like 30 years now. I think, given all the hype, and what we've seen of his talent, there's some legitimate expectation he can better that record which in itself would be really something. Gretzky had 137 points in his first NHL season, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caley Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Kind of a fun game. Tampa comes out and dominates Chicago for two periods, Tampa tries to play defensive in the 3rd, and Chicago needs just 1:58 for the victory, then shuts Tampa down from then on. Quite funny that all the discussion afterwards is about the goalies, Keith, Crawford and Vermette, and no real mention of Teravainen scoring the tying goal, forcing the turnover for the assist on the winning goal.

Death From Above Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 It's a weird thing in hockey you see a team go up 1-0 early and they are owning the game and they don't get that second goal, you just feel like they missed a chance. Chicago just don't panic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bear Wyatt Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Ben Bishop deserves some sort of award after surviving that 1st period on a bad knee. Victor Hedman deserves some serious Conn Smythe consideration. He's been a beast all playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
