The Mother-fucking goddamn Off-season Thread

Crosby seemed to be hitting another level that year he first got the neck injury that they couldn't figure out for like 3 years. He was on a ridiculous like 70+ goal 140+ point pace or something like that (he came back for a few games which I believe brought his pace down).

He never got back to that level, and those were his 24-26y/o season - prime time for a forward. I really feel like we got robbed of his best.
Agreed. That was him at his absolute peak. Too bad.

Kinda emblematic of the sport turning a blind eye to the prevalence and severity of brain injuries.
