    McDavid first 301 career games: 134 goals - 395 points (1.312 points per game)
    Crosby suffered a series of concussions that sat him out his age 23 season, where he was on pace for 64 goals and 132 points in 82 games (1.61 points per game -ended with 32 goals in 41 games)
    He doesn't try too many 'flashy' plays anymore, but they still somehow come to him.

      @@tzhell That's all he have. Crosby had Malkin on his team, much better player than Draisaitl, in the same tier of players of Crosby and McDavid. He played with him on power plays, and since Malkin could be as great as a treat as Crosby, the other team had to split their focus. All the focus is on McDavid's line. The argument could stop there... but the rest of Crosby team was much better also. The Oilers don't have an offensive defenseman remotely as good as Letang, they don't have the center line Pitts had, etc.

      Des Pearson Bruh surely you jest. Crosby makes everyone around him exponentially better McDavid is just good at making himself good. Also Crosby averaged more points per game in his first 5 seasons than McDavid in his first five seasons. Crosby is way better in the post season McDavid isn’t even averaging a point a game while Crosby is averaging over a point a game. To cap it off Crosby won a Stanley cup within his first five seasons while McDavid has only made the playoffs once which is the same year the pens won the cup. McDavid is a great player but I wouldn’t take him over Crosby. (I’d probably take him over Ovi tho.)

    They are two completely different players, with very different styles of play. Check out xXlaflammeXx channel to see some really intense compilations of Crosby. Connor is more a player with impressive quickness, who just might develop into a player with more layers as he ages. I hope so. Now it is hard to watch him play because I always say 'what just happened' as he is so fast. Crosby is so versatile, even as he is slowing down, there are games he literally controls everything.

    I think it's already decided by your reactions. Your jaw was dropped the entire time during the Crosby half of the video. McDavid hasn't had as much time of course, but the best of Crosby so far is definitely more impressive than the best of McDavid. Connor has that otherworldly speed with the puck, but Crosbys skill with it is definitely higher. Not to mention all that hardware. We'll see where McDavid ends up, but Crosby's prime is absolutely better. Today it's close, but it depends what you want, best 200ft game or best all out offense.

      Crosby only developed his 200ft game under Bylsma, his 2-way hockey only gets better with age. McDavids 200 ft game is under-rated however, he can still play as a smart 2-way center but it gets over-shadowed by his offence... Overall I agree.

    Sid the Kid entered at the NHL at 18 and was an immediate superstar. the greatest enter with recognition of their greatness (mcdavid too)...some of the highly anticipated players do not pan out; but the fans know when they got a new superstar before he puts on pads. it's part of what makes the game so amazing. Sid's first year was Mario's last year. the pride and joy on Mario's face when Sid got his first goal is part of what sets hockey apart from anything else.
    fun fact, Sid lived in Mario's guest house his fist year.
    Malkin lived in Gonchar's. (Malkin and Gonchar are both Russian)
    Mario was 18 when he enterred, and knew how hard that is for a young player, so he recruited veteran players to provide that family of support to their new talent...

Like recently just easily blowing past Eckman-Larson to score, or when he scored off of Chara's stick, or when he got Seabrook and Keith to concentrate on him then spun around and somehow did a blind pass through both of them to Draisaitl. I think he's done something similar to the majority of elite defensemen at this point

      McDavid is so fast that he doesn't even have to do half the shit Crosby can do. The way Crosby can dance around behind the goal line until he finds an opening is uncanny, but why do that if you can just turn the corner for a breakaway? Crosby is that guy in NHL videogames that you just can't touch or push off the puck when you do, while he dances around your offensive zone until he can slice to the net or pass to the slot. McDavid is the guy who made a character with 99 Speed with high Shooting and Passing instead.

    You can't talk about Sidney Crosby without ALEX OVECHKIN! They are the two best players of the last generation. You watched Ovechkin biggest hits now you need to see his goals!

      Brian Fairfield I’m talking strictly about scoring goals and Crosby, who is an incredible goal scorer, doesn’t come close to the the consistency and numbers that of Ovi has. Ovechkin is going to break 801 (Howe’s record) at least by end of his career which puts him in number 2 of all time with Howe (3rd) and Gretzky.. in an era where goals were harder to score and there was significantly less goals per game on average. So yes if he gets to top 2 I think you can make that argument. Ovis gonna get 700 fucking goals by the end of this season and he’s 34..

    The shimmy with the puck is called stick handling. Its the first skill learned by wee ones (pee-wee's) after learning to skate. NHL players have spent 1000's of hours practicing this.. on frozen ponds, backyard rinks and local arenas. (or on the road/driveway during our brief but glorious summers here in Canada).
    A dangle or toe-curl (referring to the toe of the stick) is a move performed while stick-handling.. usually during a deke. And you always keep your head up while handling the puck or you end up in the Big Hits videos. Wheel snipe celly, boys. Ferda.
