Crosby Con Smythe winner, some see it as highly questionable. They're wrong. In the last half of this season the guy's been a machine for them. Winning key faceoffs, blocking shots, causing turnovers, making key plays and passes that lead to goals. Over all he earned it.
Nice win for the Pens. Now get ready for next year, the Winnipeg Jets are coming for you.

Agree, Crosby was the complete package and played end to end all zones, play making, scoring, defending like a beast. Pens turned their entire season around and he was certainly providing leadership through example - he even got Kessel to play at the level that he should be at. Factor in the enormous success of the players they called up... are you kidding? Fleury is still amazing and they put it on Murray and he absolutely bricked them all up for 90% of the run. Defense was stellar. Letang gets the pr but they all were phenomenal (unlike the last few seasons).
I liked that the Sharks made it as far as they did but Pens were just amazingly dominant and played some of the best hockey line for line that I have ever seen.
