Four Forwards Who Win
The NHL is loaded with talented young and old players alike. These four forwards prove daily that they are valuable assets to their teams and the seasons they’ve had and the post seasons they hope to have.
Your hockey sportsbook picks might be up in the air every week as players step up in big ways and other sit down in big ways, but there are certain hockey stars that perform each and every week, putting their teams at the top of hockey sportsbook lists everywhere constantly.
For example, the best forwards in the game are players that consistently offer something other forwards cannot – consistency, strong play, and a raw natural talent that will rarely if ever have a “bad night”. Leading the list are two incredible sophomore entries in Sidney Crosby and Alexander Ovechkin.
Crosby is leading the league in points this year, and he’s not only scoring goals, but offering assists in record setting numbers for a kid his age. It’s that kind of consistency and talent that makes him one of the best in the game after only two seasons.
Similarly placing his team at the top of many sportsbooks is Ovechkin, who scored 52 goals last season. This year, he’s averaging the same kind of numbers and throwing in the assists, like Crosby to back it up. These two players alone are helping to bring back some of the excitement lost by the 2004-05 lockout.
Of course, it’s not all rookies tearing up the ice this year and making their teams look good to hockey sportsbook fanatics everywhere. Just look at Teemu Selanne, now in his 16th season, and looking to put away another 100 point season with style. On a Ducks team once again poised to make a solid run through the playoffs, Selanne is an anchor that anyone can look for to always turn in a good performance.
Similarly, Joe Sakic of the Avalanche is an 18th year player with the kind of experience that, no matter the year he’s having, makes Colorado a team to watch. He’s been around for a long time and shows no signs of slowing down, and with his team on the cusp, any playoff birth with be thanks in most parts to his stellar, consistent play and nearly 600 career goals.
It’s not the Forwards that make hockey, but they do a lot for their team and when a forward is so good that they can be counted on day in and day out to turn in incredible performances, you’d better believe that the team will perform when the playoffs roll around. And don’t think the men with the hockey sportsbooks aren’t paying attention as well.
