In Crosby’s mind, what makes Vanek so good?
“I think there’s a
lot of different things,” Crosby explained. “He’s got a great shot. He
doesn’t need much time or space to put the puck in the net. He goes to
the tough areas. He’ll go to the front of the net and score those gritty
goals that you have to score. He’s patient. Sometimes he’ll hold the
puck it seems like forever and then dish it off or find some way to kind
of tuck it around the goalie.
“So his patience, when I think of him as a player, the patience that he has really sticks out in my mind.”
