The Pens lost in the finals to a really good Detroit Red Wings team and have won every final they’ve been to since. Calling that a mental breakdown and then ignoring all of the hardware Crosby has won Winning a Hart or a Ross doesnt make a player a better leader. How is this lost to you and Pokemon boy here? Individual accomplishments doesnt = being a good captain , as well as the thirteen straight playoff appearances Crosby willed them to the playoffs now? when discussing which captain has had the most success makes you sound clearly biased and not genuinely open to the discussion.
I already posted numerous instances of Sid acting like a clown prior to Sochi and made no mention of 08 being the reason he was a punk, keep up with the conversation. There was the constant diving, cheap shots, eomotional temper tantrums in philly, montreal, boston,etc in the playoffs. Heading into Sochi no one saw him as a great leader let alone a successful one there is a reason he openly needed Toews blessing since no one saw him as a good captain and him even becoming captain was pure media driven and not based on actual merit. There is a reason why players constantly harped on him for being a diving diva he wasnt much of a captain.
