Twice is nice! The Pittsburgh Penguins clinched their second consecutive Stanley Cup last season, defeating the Nashville Predators in 6 games, becoming the first team since the 1997-98 Red Wings to win back-to-back Stanley Cups. Behind another spectacular and grueling run through the 2017 Stanley Cup playoffs was none other than captain Sidney Crosby, who led the team with 89 points and finished 2nd in NHL MVP voting. Crosby led the NHL with 44 goals and was second in points despite missing the first six games of the season with a concussion. Crosby had the last laugh, nonetheless, as his team expertly navigated difficult series against top-seeded Washington Capitals and Ottawa Senators to ultimate take home the most important trophy, the Stanley Cup. Sid the Kid was awarded the Conn Smythe Trophy for the second straight year as the most valuable player of the playoffs, becoming only the third player to do so. However, Crosby did not crown the Penguins champions alone. Center Evgeni Malkin and right wing Phil Kessel added 70+ points each. The goalie tandem of Matt Murray and Marc-Andre Fleury held it down on the goal line, losing just 10 games each.
