So they basically gave him the Conn Smythe so he could mark it off his checklist. Certainly wasn't on merit.polaris_x said:sid only player to win stanley cup, olympic gold, world junior gold, world championships gold, hart trophy, art ross trophy and conn smythe trophy ...

the award is voted on by the hockey writers association ... not sure there is any agenda on their part ...0 -
It's ok. My boy has lifted that Cup more times than Sid.
By the way, the word "salty" is so overused it doesn't even have meaning. Even a Pens fan has to agree that there were at least 4 other players wayyyyyyy more deserving of the Conn Smythe trophy.Star Lake 00 / Pittsburgh 03 / State College 03 / Bristow 03 / Cleveland 06 / Camden II 06 / DC 08 / Pittsburgh 13 / Baltimore 13 / Charlottesville 13 / Cincinnati 14 / St. Paul 14 / Hampton 16 / Wrigley I 16 / Wrigley II 16 / Baltimore 20 / Camden 22 / Baltimore 24 / Raleigh I 25 / Raleigh II 25 / Pittsburgh I 250 -
I would recommend letting it slide.
The Penguins won the cup last night and Crosby the Conn Smythe. It is an impenetrable argument.0 -
That's "Cup" with a capital C, my friend!

Great playoff, of course not so dramatic like in 09, but.. i feel sorry for some guys like jumbo joe, marleau, burns (best beard ever). Pens were the strongest team. Congrats to all fans!0

It was on merit ... He may not have filled the nets ... But he played a complete game for the entire playoffs and looked great doing it.HesCalledDyer said:

He was a -2 for the entire playoffs. Kessel got robbed. Murray got robbed. Couture got robbed. Pavelski got robbed.lukin2006 said:

Not sure how I feel about a Vegas team. The NHL obviously has not learned anything from the other desert franchise.MayDay10 said:

Early 2017 odds: Penguins favored to repeat, followed by Blackhawks, Caps, Blues.
With the way the Penguins are currently built, I could see them going on a Blackhawks-type run for the next 5 or 6 years. They have a good core locked up with Malkin, Crysby, Kessel, & Letang and plenty of young talent. Barring injuries and the young guys shipping out via trades or FA, they have a good formula for the coming years.Star Lake 00 / Pittsburgh 03 / State College 03 / Bristow 03 / Cleveland 06 / Camden II 06 / DC 08 / Pittsburgh 13 / Baltimore 13 / Charlottesville 13 / Cincinnati 14 / St. Paul 14 / Hampton 16 / Wrigley I 16 / Wrigley II 16 / Baltimore 20 / Camden 22 / Baltimore 24 / Raleigh I 25 / Raleigh II 25 / Pittsburgh I 250 -
I'm pretty sure Kessel or Murray don't feel robbed ... after all they are cup Champs. And very seldom does a player from the losing side win the Conn Smythe and theven 2 you mentinned just didn't do enough in a losing effort to warrant the conn Smythe.HesCalledDyer said:

Crosby would be the first to tell you that he'd be more than happy to share the award with those 2 teammates of his you mention, he'd probably share the award with his entire team ... because he knows it took an entire team effort to win the championship...in the end that is all that matters to Crosby.I have certain rules I live by ...
