    Default Hmmmm Crosby or Ovechkin?

    Who do you think has the better upside this season?

    Crosby is injured for a bit but always seems to elevate his game when Gino is injured?

    or

    Ovechkin - The great 8 is 36 & still elite but his set up man Backstrom is week to week with a hip injury?


    These guys are both UFA's this year and I pick 8th overall. I am assuming Marchand will not be available or would I would take him at 8.

    Which way would you lean?

    Two awesome players but for me, Crosby will always be in front of Ovechkin.

    Ovechkin, as he's not hurt. This is points only, so it's actually a choice. Format is key, as there are setups where this isn't close, and the direction varies.

    With Geno out for a big chunk of the season Crosby will be counted on for everything. I choose Sid.

    Points only, Crosby has the higher ceiling and the higher floor for that matter.

    I thought Ovi may get a few more nods here. But, I'm going Sid as well. As others have said, in a different scoring format Ovi moves the needle, but points only, give me Sid.

    Yeah in points only, give me Crosby! (i generally prefer elite playmakers over goal-scorers) but it's not like Crosby doesn't score as well
