Crosby's brilliance on full display in Stanley Cup final; Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, 6/3/16

Sam Werner, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette; Crosby's brilliance on full display in Stanley Cup final:

"Even though he has yet to score a goal, Crosby’s fingerprints are all over the Stanley Cup final, which the Penguins lead, 2-0. From his assist to set up Sheary’s goal in Game 1 to the orchestration of the overtime goal Wednesday night, Crosby seems intent on using this series as a stage to re-stake his claim as the best hockey player in the world.

“It’s as good as I’ve seen him play,” said Penguins coach Mike Sullivan, who until this year had coached against Crosby as the head coach of the Boston Bruins and as an assistant with the Tampa Bay Lightning, New York Rangers and Vancouver Canucks...

“He’s a great leader,” Sullivan said. “He takes charge of his line, he takes charge of situations on the ice. You can see the interaction that he has with his teammates both on the ice, on the power play, on the bench, in between periods.”"
