union drone 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2008 I can just see it now... Gary Bettman: And this year's Crosby trophy is awarded to...*drumroll*...Sidney Crosby!!! Sid: Me? Really? Wow. I wasn't expecting this at all. It's just an honor to be nominated. Gary Bettman: Can I kiss you? They should name it the "NHL shameless self-promotion award", which is given annually to the player who most exemplifies North American marketability.

auxlepli 17 Report post Posted February 3, 2008 We have the Rocket Richard trophy for goals, it's about time we had the Gretzky for assists. Even if Gretzky had never scored even one goal in his career, he would STILL be the NHL all time points leader. That's an amazing stat. I never realized that.

Dano33 41 Report post Posted February 4, 2008 (edited) I think Aaron Downey is in the running for my proposed trophy for the least points in the most games, called the Stu Grimson Award. Another version of the Stu Grimson award could be to all players who get outscored by goalies. 1995-96 Grimson: 56 Games, 0 Goals 1 Assist Osgood: 50 Games, 1 Goal 2 Assists Edited February 4, 2008 by Dano33 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wasn't expecting this at all. It's just an honor to be nominated. Gary Bettman: Can I kiss you? Yeah, but doesn't change the fact that he's the best player to come into the league since Nick Lidstrom. And just think, he's almost able to buy a beer! I don't hate on the kid because I think he's a fantastic young player who is mature beyond his years. I don't buy the BS whiner moniker he got because of a 2 week span during his rookie year where he ran his mouth. Since then he's been the poster boy for the NHL and IMO, has done a superb job of handling that position. In interviews, post game, special events, whatever, the kid is well spoken, says the right things and never praises himself. Reminds me alot of another young captain, a somewhat quiet guy who had the world heaped on his shoulders in Detroit and had a maturity beyond his years. What was his name? I just hope he comes back soon enough to rack up another 100 point season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think he's projected to play in the last 10-15 games at best. He'll also be a little rusty I'm sure. No way he gets those 37 points. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
