He's taken a couple good bumps already. I have to be honest, I'm holding my breath every time!
Somewhere Lindros and Marc Savard are holding their breath with every shift.
The Kid looks good so far though. Definitely the best in the game. In saying that, there is no way I am letting up on him. You have to play him like you used to or else he'll have a 10 point game.

Anyone else think a healthy Crosby could win the Art Ross from this point on? I do.

Primary assist on goal number two- honestly he could have 4 already- this is something else. I was almost expecting something anti climactic- boy was I wrong...

It certainly doesn't hurt that the Pens are playing the lowly Islanders and an Islanders team with their 4th/5th string goaltender in net.
Already got a goal and an assist...
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say he goes for the Gordie Howe Hat-trick.

You guys have water on the brain clearly, no one said Crosby wouldn't be sick when in the lineup, it's his high likelihood of being re-concussed that is the deterrent. Marc Savard got popped plenty of times in the 25 games he played as well, but it's the one big pop where the head intentionally or otherwise gets brought into the equation one way or another that is the issue and that doesn't go away ever. I don't think a single person ever said he'd not be good if he was in the lineup, it's how long he can stay in the lineup without getting re-concussed that is the issue.Originally Posted by Otto2000
I don't care who he is playing tonight. He is the odds on favorite to win the Art Ross right now.

STUNNING! The most electrifying man in sports entertainment returns...If you smell...
Man, MTL got shafted. Crosby only costs $3 million more than Gomez. Apparently that $3 million makes all the difference.

I'm not surprised by his strong game. I'm more surprised at how many people thought the Isles would actually be good this season.
I honestly thought they would be a lot better then they are. Can't be right all the time.
