I keep bringing up the age cause you are straight up wrong. Higgins is not better now and will not be better later. Basically Im saying Anze at age 19 rapes Higgins at age 22 or 23 or whatever he is.
I'm going to straight up call you out..i dont think you do watch LA games..Your habs fan with not 1 LA King of value on your roster..I mean i love spending my time watching streamed games of columbus on my computer while theres games on tv...
It's streamtvnow, costs 5 bucks a month or something. Your point is that any team I watch I need to have a good player from that team? I mean I've seen the Sabres 5 times this year, Sens probably 5-6 times as well and I don't have players from those teams... I doubt you really watch any Habs games because you don't have one hab player on your team

THe point is that you're not a Kings fan, but you still watch? We watch the habs cuz they're on tv all the time.
What i was saying is there would be 3 reasons you would watch a team 1)You like them 2) you have a key player on the team you like watching 3) they're on tv
I can't think of another reason you would pay 5 bucks to watch LA when theres other games going on.
I was trying to trade for Dustin Brown a few weeks ago so wanted to watch him. And no I don't pay 5 bucks to watch Kings games, I pay 5 bucks to watch: THE SAINTS ARE COMING!!! THE SAINTS ARE COMING!!! THE SAINTS ARE COMING!!! THE SAINTS ARE COMING!!! THE SAINTS ARE COMING!!! THE SAINTS ARE COMING!!! THE SAINTS ARE COMING!!! THE SAINTS ARE COMING!!! THE SAINTS ARE COMING!!! THE SAINTS ARE COMING!!! THE SAINTS ARE COMING!!! THE SAINTS ARE COMING!!! THE SAINTS ARE COMING!!! THE SAINTS ARE COMING!!! THE SAINTS ARE COMING!!! THE SAINTS ARE COMING!!! THE SAINTS ARE COMING!!!

Well whatever, we're done arguing over this issue. Maybe someday you'll realize how good Kopitar is when you actually watch some Kings games. Until then - Higgins is better i guess..... lol yeah right.
Sabres wrote: I highly doubt that any Montreal fan EVER sees an LA kings game. Whoever said they have watched a kings game in entirety this year who lives in Montreal or near there is lieing. The only way you see them play is if they play MTL or maybe TO. Do those divisions even play this year? I live in Calgary, a hell of alot closer to LA, and I still only get 2-3 LA kings games on tv during the year and most likely its vs the flames.
So basically your opinion of him is not very strong. I have seen several MTL games and actually really like Higgins for much of the same reasons you do. You say hes a complete player?
Kopitar gets 20:12 ice time per game in his rookie year, averaging just about 2 minutes of that on the PK as a rookie.
Higgins gets 17:59 ice time per game, of which only 2:41 is PK.
So how is he more complete? Kopitar plays in every situation as a 19 year old rookie. Hes pretty much THE MAN in LA already.
Another thing, I dont know why you are bragging that Higgins is on the 2nd best pk unit. I think thats a pretty strong attestment to the fact they have Steve Begin and Radek Bonk on the pk more so than Higgins. Dont try to pull the wool over peoples eyes.

Dude have you ever heard of NHL Centre Ice or do they not have that in Calgary?
It's this wonderful program where you pay 149.99 and you get almost every NHL game in the entire season.

Ok I think you must just be really really slow. Age doesn't matter in this case. He's not saying that at 19 Higgins is better than Kopitar at 19, that's not debatable.
HE'S SAYING THAT RIGHT NOW AT THIS MOMENT THIS YEAR HIGGINS IS BETTER THAN KOPITAR.

Yeah I know exactly what hes saying, hence me saying that dispite Kopitar being 4 years young (which quite often is a strong factor in who's better) he is still better than Higgins RIGHT NOW!
This is retarded thouhg, everyone is entitled to there own opinion, good night.
Sabres wrote: Higgins still better than Kopitar? Kops hasnt had a cold spell all year.
Higgins was injured and had a cold streak of 10-15 games while he wasn't fully recovered. He,s back to being the same player he was before his injury now though. Kopitar isn't too bad though.
Sabres wrote: Higgins has 28 in 46.. Kopitar has 56 in 63..
I believe that is twice the points and not even close to twice the games.
Kops on pace for 73 in 82 Higgy on pace for 50 in 82
You can't blame injury on a cold streak..a cold streak is a cold streak..i know many players who are hot comming off injuries..
Some leg injuries ruin careers as well? I know he was cold but part of the reason is because his injury wasn't fully healed, I'm just glad he's back to the same player he was before his injury.
Tampa has Sundin on pace for 100+ season (but he's on Toronto and will eventually suck) and Bergeron on pace for 96 points, and in my mind a realistic goal for him especially since Boston doesn't suck as much as they had....
Colorado's duo of Richards and Malkin
Detroit has Cammalleri, Sykora (with Crosby) and Getzlaf who have the possibility (unlikely but still a possibility)
Minnesota's Zetterberg looks good for the season, Sedin's an outside shot for 100+ season...
And of course Chicago and Buffalo...
I see 6 teams with a possibility of having two 100+ point centers....
