I saw a collection of individuals in the same colours trying to do it themselves (at least offensively) until Crosby stepped on the ice and shepherded them in a way. He was the guy with vision and could see things developing while every one else was just battling through it.
His assists were not ordinary assists. He drew defenders and parted the seas so his linemates could capitalize.
Exemplified the leverage that IQ brings over just having oodles of skill.
