Title might be slightly misleading. When I was younger I sort of watched with Lemieux and Yagr and what not. I have a fairly basic understanding of the game but plenty of understanding of athletics and skills and what not.
Anyway, my main reason for making this thread is because I have started watching again with the past couple of playoff games and wanted to see how my eye test is doing. I have heard plenty about Crosby and know the hype and have never seen him play but to my eye he really is the best player on the ice. Most of what he does just looks effortlessly good. Maybe not something as impressive as goals but his passing is soooo good.
Putting defense aside because I am still adjusting to judging that, I think the most electric player outside of Crosby has been Conor Sheary. He looks fast and seems to have great puck handling skills. What really peaked my curiosity is that I don't feel like I see him on the ice all that much. So am I overrating him? Are the guys playing more that much better? Who else should I be keeping an eye on?
