I thought it was pretty interesting.

Ovechkin's Playoff Totals 28GP 20G 20A 40P (1.43 P/Gm)
Crosby clearly has more playoff points and hardware than Ovechkin but it is pretty cool to see them tied at 571 career points.
good stuff! nice post... It'll definitely be a fun era to watch. These guys are both incredible talents, and great for the game.
I do wonder what you mean by "Crosby clearly has more playoff points and hardware than Ovechkin" though. I mean, outside of the stanley cup, crosby has no "playoff hardware..." So this seems like a bizarre way of putting it... If you meant to say more hardware in general (not just playoff hardware), then that's incorrect, as I'm pretty sure that Ovie actually has more trophies than crosby at this point.
EDIT:
Ovechkin has:
Calder Memorial Trophy: 2006
Lester B. Pearson Award/Ted Lindsay Award (Most Outstanding Player as voted by peers): 2008, 2009, 2010
Hart Memorial Trophy: 2008, 2009
Art Ross Trophy: 2008 (112 points)
Maurice "Rocket" Richard Trophy: 2008 (65 goals), 2009 (56 goals)
9 total
Crosby has:
Maurice "Rocket" Richard Trophy: 2010 (51 goals)
Olympic Gold Medal: 2010
Stanley Cup: 2009
Art Ross Trophy (Leading Scorer): 2007
Lester B. Pearson Award/Ted Lindsay Award (Most Outstanding Player as voted by peers): 2007
Hart Memorial Trophy: 2007
6 total
Not sure if you count team trophies (olympics and stanley cup) as being worth more, but by my count crosby's still a little behind in the trophy category.
I mean hell... in 2008, Ovechkin made a clean sweep, collecting all four of the major trophies (art ross, hart, richard, and Pearson/Lindsay award).
