I love Semin but I despise Crosby with a passion, also Ovechkin is starting to get back into his mode =D
What's wrong with Crosby?... Please don't come back with the same old tired, he's whiny and a diver argument, because anyone who watches this guy game-in/game-out like me, knows just how wrong that argument is.
He's not the best player that so many people say he is, he is a great talent but to be honest with you I'd rather build my team around so many other players. There's no questioning he did whine and dive in his earlier years though, I despise divers, to me it's basically cheating, that's what it is. After watching the Detroit and Philly games he was in I can cleary see that he stopped that act but you know I'm just an Ovechkin guy. Love him to death.
He is a generational talent. You can take basically Ovi, Crosby, and Geno, and they are the best of the best. I would be willing to include Iginla and Thornton. Like I said, he made some mistakes his first year, and he was chirpy. He was also 18, and still learning to control his emotions. I like all of the superstars, I try not to favour any of them, but Crosby to me stands out as the most complete player/leader in the NHL.
