9P in 4GP no matter what team you play against is top notch
Look the guy has 17 career playoff games (13 when he was 20 years old).... its ridculous to say he doesnt bring it int he playoffs at this stage of his career. Gimme a break.
He wasnt blessed to be drafted by a team surrounded with talent other than Draisaitl now. In 09, Crosby had the luxury of playing with: Malkin, Letang, Fleury, Staal, Gonchar... Replace Sid with McDavid, I guarantee you he wins the Cup on that roster.
This is going to be the same story as Ovi... Everyone will criticize him until he wins. Ill say it again, you dont win the Cup on your own. It takes a team.
