Sidney Crosby is still the best hockey player in the world. Thats not by any means an outrageous statement and its one that not too many would disagree with, at all. As Crosby and his Pittsburgh Penguins prepare for Game 7 against the New York Rangers in the second round of the Eastern Conference playoffs, there is one thing about the Pens captain, though, that is considerably less definitive. When it comes to crunch time, is Sidney Crosby still the first player you would turn to? To the northwest of Pittsburgh, in St. Paul, Minnesota to be exact, there is another captain playing tonight in a game that could see his team advance to the conference final, just as Sidney Crosbys Penguins can. In Game 6 of their Western Conference second-round series, the Chicago Blackhawks - led by Jonathan Toews - can advance to a second-straight Western Conference Final by defeating the Minnesota Wild as they continue their defence of the Stanley Cup. As a two-time Stanley Cup winner and a two-time Olympic gold medalist, has Toews taken over the mantle as hockeys preeminent go-to guy? The suggestion that Crosby wouldnt be the first player you would turn to in the clutch is by no means a referendum on his status as the games best. It isnt and the Hart Trophy hes likely going to win next month at the NHL Awards (to go along with the one he earned in 2007), confirming his status as the NHLs MVP cements that. Crosby is hockeys best all-around player and has been for some time. Still, the Cole Harbour, Nova Scotia native has recently disappeared when the chips are down. Going into tonights game, Crosby has just one goal in his past 17 playoff games (of course, Rick Nash is enduring that exact same streak of futility, but thats another discussion altogether) and the indelible image of Crosby in these playoffs, thus far, was his Game 6 spear of Dominic Moore. Conversely, Toews could be looking at another Conn Smythe Trophy if he can help lead the Blackhawks to a third Stanley Cup in five seasons. While Crosby languishes with a solitary marker in this years playoffs, Toews has five in 11 games - with four of them game-winning goals. Thats now 10 game-winning goals in his career, most in his teams history. Sure, thats a long ways away from Wayne Gretzky and Brett Hulls joint record of 24 career game-winning goals in the playoffs, but its four more than Crosbys tally in eight fewer career playoff games. Perhaps, even more telling about Toewss current status of big game-breaker is that Crosby, upon being informed that he was being named Canadas captain for Sochi, reportedly wanted Toewss blessing before accepting the C. So who would you rather have in an elimination/advancement game like tonight: Sidney Crosby or Jonathan Toews? As always, its Your Call. <a href="http://www.shoptheraidersonline.com/Elite-Ted-Hendricks-Raiders-Jersey/">Ted Hendricks Womens Jersey</a>. Dustin Brown said it felt unbelievable.

Anthony Bennett (Cavs): Congrats! Finally. Its been a very frustrating and disappointing rookie campaign for the young Canadian out of UNLV. The Cavs have won three in a row after an embarrassing loss at home to the undermanned Lakers and firing their GM Chris Grant. <a href="http://www.shoptheraidersonline.com/Customized/">Custom Raiders Jersey</a>. On one of the memorable European nights at Old Trafford, Van Persie scored three times in a 27-minute span either side of halftime to overturn a 2-0 deficit from the first leg. A slew of brilliant saves by David de Gea were also key to a famous win for the English champions -- and a vital one for their manager, David Moyes.The Toronto Blue Jays have signed first baseman Daric Barton to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training. The 29-year-old was designated for assignment by the Oakland Athletics earlier in the year. He elected to become a free agent. Barton has spent his entire eight-year career with the Athletics. Last seasonn he struggled at the plate, hitting .dddddddddddd158 with no home runs in 30 games. He led the American League in walks in 2010. The Blue Jays signed Justin Smoak and claimed Chris Colabello off waivers earlier this offseason. The pair, along with Barton, are expected to battle for the starter’s spot at first base. <a href="http://www.cheapjerseyscustom.us.com/">cheap custom jerseys</a>　 <a href="http://www.wholesalejerseysstore.us/">wholesale jerseys store</a>　<a href="http://www.cheapjerseysown.us/">cheap jerseys</a>　<a href="http://www.cheapjerseysmarts.us/">Cheap Jerseys</a><a href="http://www.wholesalejerseyscc.us.com/">wholesale jerseys</a> ' ' '
