    Got off to a great start last year before he was taken out by mono and a couple bouts of the flu.

    Have to take Ov over Cindy, if that's the choice.

    Ov doesn't mince away to a neutral corner, when the gloves drop.

    I guess this was top 50 active last season. I was prepared to expose the Scottie Pippen of the NHL.

    According to this website, Crosby is 3-1 in fights. He will drop the gloves.

    Ovechkin is 0-2, with both fights coming in 2006-07 -- one in the preseason.

    Remind me, who is it that minces away to a neutral corner when the gloves drop? Remember when Ovechkin was about to fight Steve Downie but Matt Bradley raced off the bench to step in to fight for a tentative Ovechkin? Good times.

    And if you need somebody to cheap shot someone on the other team, Ovechkin's got that over Crosby, too.

    Yeah, sure.

    You can knock Gretzky for the same thing.

    Of course, Gordie Howe makes all of the subsequent pretenders look small.
    And that's the truth, for all time, to the present.

    You have to love guys who don't look to start fights, but are fully capable of bringing them to just conclusions.

    show me how Ovechkin can finish those fights you talk of.

    Also, please show me where Crosby has ever shied away from the dirty areas, you don't have to fight to be tough.
