How would smaller pads affect Crosby never winning the Ross and Rocket in the same season?
I don’t explain it.
Sid has won every trophy at every level that matters. Including the ones you’re asking about. And a bunch of international ones too.
What’s the special significance if it’s in one season or over a career?
Is that some arbitrary measure of greatness?
Nikola Tesla said scientists would work so hard to develop mathematical formulas that they would lose sight of the real thing they were studying in the first place.
We’re there with hockey and points.
People quote points and think they just spoke hockey gospel.
It’s a tool, not the whole story.
In the finals, McDavid won 2 games by himself.
Also had 5 mediocre games by his standards.
The players are paid to win.
Not pile on stats in 2 games.
Obviously he’ll learn as he’s one of the best ever.
I’ve seen Sid block a shot with the Stanley Cup on the line.
May have saved a goal. Maybe not.
Either way, kept his team out of danger when it mattered most.
No point for that.
But isn’t winning the point?
