Crosby worked to fill the wholes in his game, that cat is never ever disengaged, and he plays a solid 200 foot game. Plus is generational offensively so Sid to me is Generational.
McDavid is not.
Fans saw that in its glory last night.

I went to an Oilers game last year and it's incredible how much time McDavid is floating around the ice. He has 0 commitment to anything that doesn't involve scoring. I was honestly just as impressed with his lack of GAF his side of the redline as I was with his burst speed and agility.
