So, they definitely carried the Pens by both scoring more points and in every other facet of the game...

That year (2016) was a year when their team speed ie puck movement took the league by storm. It was how the team played not just on how those 2 performed. I’m obviously not saying PIT doesn’t benefit by those players but in that year PIT did not rely on just them. It was the team play - how they moved the puck.
