The Crosby thread. 

Post#1 » by hsb » Mon Dec 27, 2010 11:43 pm

Crosby is coming off an Olympic year and scored the tournament winning goal. After a longer than expected off-season, he is currently playing at a dominant level.

Will this year be an all-time great year? How does he compare with other players and those retired?

He has a point streak of 24 games. The streak almost ended yesterday but he scored one late.

Looks like he's going to be out for at least a week with a concusion. He took a pretty wicked hit from Steckel in the winter classic and then he got rocked by Hedmen a few days ago.
