Who is the hardest player to take the puck off?
Funny how the same names keep popping up. Pavel Datsyuk and Sidney Crosby... they are almost interchangeable. In this case Datsyuk is rated number one followed by Crosby. For the smartest player, it was the opposite, Crosby first and Datsyuk second.
Two great players who have an unbelievable amount of respect from their peers.
