Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby was awarded the Conn Smythe Trophy on Sunday as the Most Valuable Player of the National Hockey League’s Stanley Cup playoffs.
It marked the second consecutive year Crosby has won the award, making him the seventh player to win it more than once.
The Penguins clinched the best-of-seven championship 4-2 to win the franchise’s fifth Stanley Cup. They also became the NHL’s first repeat champion since Detroit did it 19 years ago.
