I know in soccer we have it, in boxing we have the best fighter. But what about hockey? I don't pay attention to hockey, but I'm just curious.

We don't have the best player. We do have super-stars. The most common super stars are Sydney Crosby or Alexander Ovechkin

We do have a legend. Wayne gretzky

The gap between "the best" and star players isn't as big as in soccer or basketball though.

The past 10 NHL seasons have had 8 different scoring leaders, but keep in mind that assists also count as scoring and that some players have high points totals because they play with very good teammates.

Patric Hörnqvist is a perfect example of a player who has a bloated points total because he's carried by his linemates.

Well if you pay 0 attention to a sport you're obviously not gonna know anybody in it. Up until I came to the SF i didn't know who Messi or Ronaldo were cuz I never watched soccer.

If you don't follow hockey I can't exactly blame you for not knowing who Crosby is. You probably live outside of Canada and the northern (particularily northeastern) US if you don't know who he is though.

Messi and Ronaldo are also literally the two most well-known team sports players in the world too, so...

i live in australia and i know who he is. it's basically about what sports you follow and how much you follow them.

Except that literally every NHL fan outside of Pittsburgh knows that this is 100% true and would easily agree with me.




"i live in australia and i know who he is. it's basically about what sports you follow and how much you follow them."

How recently did you start following hockey? I've heard that it's getting a bit of attention in Australia as of a few years ago.

So that's TWO Preds fans from Australia on this forum?

Are the Preds like the most popular hockey team there or something, because I would imagine Australians to be fans of the Washington Capitals since Nathan Walker plays for their farm team.

also, nhl doesn't get any coverage here except on foxtel (australian cable). the nhl is literally less popular than netball and the women's national basketball league over here.

you ask any australian who sidney crosby is and they'll think you're trying to talk about sydney the city.

I know that it's true, but there seems to be a lot of trash talking of Swedish hockey players from you and a surprising lack of criticism of Finnish hockey players. Strange...

I thought netball was basically what women's basketball in Australia is supposed to be.

There's an actual women's basketball league there?

nope just me the other one you're thinking about got banned for calling someone an idiot on c&g and so he's on this account.

"Are the Preds like the most popular hockey team there or something, because I would imagine Australians to be fans of the Washington Capitals since Nathan Walker plays for their farm team."

no i'd say the pen's, maple leafs or rangers are actually. my brother is a pens fan (.....) and i've seen a lot of people with pittsburgh, toronto and nyr jerseys on. when i ask if they go for the teams, they always usually say yes and can even list off players to my amazement.

washington isn't that popular here besides having a team called the redskins in the nfl.

Of course. The three teams with the most media attention.
