Yeah. It was awesome watching Crosby showing all the younger stars on both teams that he’s still the best. Playing chess out there while everyone else is playing checkers. And he’s injured too. Really tough to cheer for a team with McDavid on it but even tougher to cheer against Crosby.
I’ve convinced myself that Crosby and McKinnon out-shining McDavid in this tournament will make up for McDavid potentially winning anything. Everything those two players do that bests McDavid diminishes him in some way. It’s why if the flames aren’t in the playoffs, I cheer for Crosby or McKinnon to add to their trophy cases.
