20 years. You fans are going to see 20 YEARS of Sidney Crosby, Kris Letang, and Evgeni Malkin playing with one another. They’re also going to all retire with at least 3 Stanley Cups. This stuff is unheard of, man. Cherish this forever.

Don't think there's enough national attention around how good Sidney Crosby has been this season. He's on an almost 50-goal pace and has the most 5v5 points in the league. As far as I'm concerned, he's one of, if not the top favorite for the Hart right now.

Jake Guentzel was a star as soon as he came up to the league. You could tell right away that he was better than any of the WBS guys who had come before him. He had one of the most magical runs I’ve ever seen in 2017 and got even better after that. Best winger Crosby’s ever had.
