In a 4-1 loss to Failadelphia :dog

You said he wouldnt reach 30 goals but hes at 26 with 6 games left and leads the league in points

you have to give him some credit

26 goals isn't 30 last I checked, but let me check again. Nope, still isn't 30. :lol:

He's a $12million cap hit & first line center that's struggling to score goals when elite scorers are nearly doubling his output.

Credit? He hasn't cracked top 20 goal scorers in the NHL. :down

Hell, Gaborik netted 40 goals with NYR twice playing in Tortorella's garbage system. :ROFL

Goal scorers wouldnt score nearly as much without set up guys, crosby is the best set up guy in the game who happens o be a decent goal scorer too

Sorry your brain is too small to comprehend that, you are l8ke a baseball fan who thinks only home runs are important

Who cares?

You wouldn't even know set up guys names if it weren't for the elite scorers actually hitting the back of the net.

$12million a year is atrocious for ~25 goal output.




Sorry your brain is too infatuated with Cindy to see that his contract is an albatross on a franchise struggling to make the playoffs, and that you've recreated the definition of what a 'great player' is to fit the Crosby mold.

we are tied for second in our division and have 95 points, its not like we are struggling to get in, we arent the first seed, but as you know being the first seed doesnt mean you will win the cup

95 pts but you sit 3rd, not 2nd.

Pens are 3-7 in their last 10, with losses to the worst teams in the league. Looks like struggling to me. :dunno

i dont play for the team, so i have no control over the record, as a fan things could be better but we have finished 1st or second in the east and not won the cup, so .... just GETTING to the playoffs grants you a chance at winning it

if you are arguing that the penguins are better off without crosby you are an idiot

I don't disagree, getting in is really all that matters. However, I'd want my team playing well heading into the post season as opposed to playing like shit if I had the choice.

Pens are better off restructuring his contract (if possible).

Wouldnt ovie have at least one cup by now if l goal scoring was as important as you say?

You can have Ovie drop 50 goals but when your d and goalie are worthless that doesn't equate to team titles.

It's like Bautista hitting 40 hrs on the Blue Jays.
