Oh well - like you said, he has the Cup and Conn Smythe - back to back.

The thing is: Crosby knows it.
He doesnt have to be 'The Man' in the regular season.
Art Ross? Old hat. Its like a comfy pair of shoes for Crosby. Doesnt need it.
He knows that the most important thing to do is save himself for the playoffs.
Can McDavid do that? Hell no. If hes not playing 20+ minutes a night the Oilers dont even get a sniff of the playoffs.
