Who do you think the best player in the world is ??

 

[Back-2-Bassiks]

Best player in the world......

hmmmm power forward - Iginla or Frosberg
Finess player - Jagr when he wants to play

 

[NICEGUY]

hrmmm.. dang, this is a tough one...Jagr. .. damn, i dont even like him :thumbsdow

 

[Arcy_Rom]

Forsberg's the best!

 

[Rick_Nash]

What about Thornton ? he can do it all, play good defence and offence, is a born player maker, and can lay out some pretty good hits.

i think Forsberg right now is the best player in the world but in the upcoming years Joe Thornton will be the best. Jagr is having a lucky season.

 

[masterofhockeyknowledge]

Forsberg is constantly injured. If he played every game so far this season he would have in my estimation 98 points, 10 more than the leader Jagr. Also if Forsberg didn't miss five games in the 2002-2003 season he led in points he would have had 112 points I believe.

My point is that Forsberg is the best in the world right now. Players with potential at becoming the best in the world are Rick Nash or Alexander Ovechkin. Forsberg is a great play maker like Adam Oates was on the Bruins 15 years ago.

 

[Rick_Nash]

Ya, In the future Rick Nash and Joe Thornton could be two of the best all around players in the NHL, there both big and can dish out the hits, Nash also has a goal scoreres touch while Thornton being the natrual playmaker.
Nash does have some issues to work out though, he aint that great of a defensive player . he has a carrer +/- of -62.

 

[sensrule]

Dany Heatley and Daniel Alfredsson

 

[HabsRule]

Saku Koivu. Alexander Ovechkin is ok too.:cheeky4:

 

[shanny14]

Henrick Zetterberg. that kid has had an ubelievable season! no one can deny that!

 

[NICEGUY]

Dany Heatley and Daniel Alfredsson

ahah. someone is showing favoritism towards their fav team..

Alexander O is awesome, but not the best player......yet

 

[Zetterberg40rule]

Give Ovechkin a few years and there won't be any doubt who is the best in the world. For now, I'd say its a toss up between Joe Thornton and Jaromine Jagr. I think Lidstrom would be up there as well, even if he is a defenseman.

 

[NICEGUY]

Do believe Crosby will be up there? I have a feeling he wont be.

 

[WestCoastWingsFan]

Nicklas Lidstrom. He's the best defensive player since Tim Horton and he's a PPG player on offense. Also great on the PP and the PK. All around stud.

 

[Rick_Nash]

Ya Crosby aint doing good as i thought he would ( sure he is having a awesome season, good stats for a 18 year old rookie on one of the worst teams in the nhl ) but most of his goals seem to be garbage goals, with all this hype about him being the next one, i relly dont see it, yes i know he still has alot of years to mature!!!!

 

[boycie]

Forsberg is the best in the world


except that he is constantly injured

 

[Fleming]

Eh thats just a minor detail...but if he was healthy, I would have to second this, because I'm extremly bias.

Agreed. In his prime he is going to be an amazing player to watch; not that he already isnt.

Forsberg doesn't play enough defense to be the best.

 

[shanny14]

Forsberg doesn't play enough defense to be the best.

Totally agree, he used to just dive to get what he needed.. drawing penalties was about all hes good for...:cheeky4:
