I think crosby had an amazing career as well, he was at a top of the league / elite level for quite a few years. definitely not short - beating ovie in the playoffs multiple times and won basically everything
ovie i think had a slightly lower peak but has lasted longer (abnormally long like selanne, jagr, orr, lidstrom, etc)
hard to say
Personally if I were to build a team to try and the win the cup around I would still take Crosby, personal preference. But Ovie is still not far off at all.
i think id go with mcdavid over both of them tbh
if i had to choose out of those two though i think id go with ovy you win games by scoring goals and nobody does it better
like you see teams counter players on teams but ovechkin its like you know where hes going to be what hes going to do you try to counter it but you cant the guy just scores goals
plus ovechkin never had the crosbaby era where if he got touched he would whine to the refs and get a powerplay that shit probably inflated crosbys #s a bit
imagine ovy had that shit he already leads the league in ppg ^^
