Hextall accepted the Conn Smythe. So did Giguere. So has every other player who won it on a losing team. It’s not as though this was a totally unprecedented situation. And as Scroopy points out, you can bet Crosby would have accepted it.
It was a petulant move. Like the Swedish hockey player who tossed away his silver medal at the world juniors. Not something you would expect from a guy who is supposed to be one of the top ambassadors for the league and the game. His own parents expected more of him.
