Crosby's first goal!

Recommended Posts

History was just made, crosby had his first goal tonight, and has an assist too. As much as I'm a bruins fan I had to be happy for him :)

Mario also has two tonight as the pens lead the bruins through 2 periods 6-4! I'm loving this game. :D

History? May i ask why "history"

Because it's the first NHL goal of one of the most hyped prospects ever?

I was much more impressed by his rush past the D then a pretty dish for a helper.

Leahy's goal was much much nicer. Very very nice set of hands w/ little ice to work w/.

Yea he is not Lawton. Lawton still has more career goals.

First time I saw Wayne and Mario they had the "it" factor.

I have not seen "it" from Crosby yet.

He isn't Mario or Gretz though. He's like an Yzerman or a Foppa. He'll be a dominant top 5, possibly #1 player, but never be the clear #1 in the league.

Crosby is a joke because he hasn't scored until his third game? :blink: Yeah sure. Didn't wayne not score until his like 6th NHL game or something? :rolleyes:

Ovechkin has "it". Think Bure, but A-O enjoys throwing the body.

Agreed. I think he will be a good player. Its just a bit annoying when people compare him to Wayne and Mario. If he is not dominant at 18 then its end of story. He is not like Wayne and Mario.

Wayne was 18 at the start of his first NHL season and had 51g, 86a and led his team in scoring by 43 points.

Mario was 19 and had 43g, 57a and led his team in scoring by 28 points.

Either he's good enough to deserve all of this attention or he isn't.

why are we comparing him to Wayne. noones gonna be Wayne. I know Dale Hawerchuck and talked to him and he says the great days are over and I agree wih him. the Greats are gone there will be no more greats. He's just a kid. He'll always bejust a kid playing a mans game. Ovechkin does indeed have it so get off the Kid Canada bus and get on the Ovechkins gonna kick his ass bus.

I think the way the game is played and the "improved" or more effective defensive strategies, as well as the modern talent/athletecism of goalies will keep a lid on any 150+ scoring seasons by any player for a long time.

Unless we have more 7-6 games like tonight's Pens/B's game :D

The new rule changes might bring back the days of the top three scorers having 100+ pts.

I wouldn't be surprised to see th top guy around 150 this season if they continue to call the penalties the way they have been.

Back to the original topic. I just got to see Sid's first goal on sportscenter as I was working when he actually scored it. First thing I noticed was that he didn't turn around and celebrate with his teammates, he turned his back on them and skated away. Did he skate to his bench? Nope, he went to the corner and stood all by himself.

so what does the way he celebrated the greatest moment of his life have to with him? the players skated over to him. this isnt the only time this has happened ( i.e. mario)

and to everybody who said they hate him, you know damn well you would be all over his balls if he was on your team. and why is everybody judging him after 3 games. give him time. he wont be the greatest ever, but he will be amazing.

We are comparing him to Wayne as the media and all of the untiring hype says we should ...
