Can't even imagine how incredible it would feel to be a pro hockey player, all these pre-game warmups and rituals, the friendships you make, the feeling walking out onto the ice for a game, scoring infront of a huge crowd...incredible
Why people hate him I will never understand. Genuinely the nicest hockey player you will ever meet. He'll always make time for fans, he'll never snub anyone. He loves spending time with little kids. Works really, really hard. Projects an perfectly clean image. You don't see him getting drunk in nightclubs. He's a role model for any kid growing up. He's the epitome of an athlete. People should celebrate him, not hate him.
LAC1962 i feel like people don't like him for that reason for some reason. that he's too quiet. id rather have a guy that keeps to himself instead of partying an posting shirtless pics like a dummy *cough cough evander and patrick kane*
He is a player that people love to hate if he isn't on their team, his stats support his efforts on the ice, perhaps he does moan a little too much to the refs, but he's the captain and he has tremendous talent. I'm a PENS fan.
Let me re-word that. My two favourite Pens players are "hot" right now. I've liked Dupuis and Malkin since they joined the team. Duper is an awesome player who has been underrated in my opinion. He's a stupidly strong skater and from what I can gather, an all-round gent off the ice which makes him very likeable. Geno is just a magician on the ice. He's been the Pens go-to guy all season, yes, but he's been a key player in years gone by as well. He has a LOT of assists on #87 goals.
God, I love Sidney Crosby. For who he is, he has to be one of the most humble people ever. Please let this guy be healthy and let him do what he loves. He brings so much joy to so many people and is just a tremendous person. "Guess we're all a little crazy in our own way..." that is one heck of a mature outlook for a guy who had millions of dollars as a teenager. Most guys in his position probably think more along the lines of "Girls, girls, girls(not that that's bad)". He is a true professional
I don't get how people can have such hatred for someone and be glad to see them injured. Wanna know why Sid's the best in the world (which he undoubtedly is), its because he works the hardest. Just watch him for a few shifts and you can immediately tell how much faster and harder he is working than everyone else on the ice. Penguin fan or not I don't understand how people cannot at least respect that.
Yes. All of the players you mentioned were greats. And all played entire careers. Bobby Orr's career was cut shot due to injuries. And still achieved numerous records. Imagine what he would have done if he played an entire career.
Where they are playing Soccer I got to go there and watched them come in from a gaMe. Couple players came out and said hi. Was the coolest day of my life
@SpiritMatthias thank you so much SpiritMatthias, that was nice of you to take the time and respond my comment! You rock dude :) PS, you made my night!
I'm not a massive Sidney Crosby fan, but I am a massive Pens fan. My favourite Pens player at the moment is Malkin, closely followed by Duper. I'm not saying I don't like Sid - I know that he's one of the most talented players on the team and despite being a bit cheesy at times, I have a huge amount of respect for him. I just hate to see him being hated on so much. He's done incredibly well for himself and for his team. He deserves the respect that he gets from Pens fans :)
Haters gonna hate. Not a Pens fan, but I respect Crosby. The guy has unbelievable talent. Anyone who has ever been around the game of hockey or has half a brain should see that.
they're all amazing legendary players, it's obvious different people have a different favourite, why argue over it.. it doesn't change that they're all great
Phaellos it could be but not necessarily. Some players like Lidstrom had completely different routine when he is playing on away games. A person with OCD would be someone who's been doing same thing over and over and would have a severe reaction if certain things aren't done in certain way to the point where he/she becomes not able to function. I don't think Sid would freak out or anything like that if he misses his pre-game rituals. He might feel uncomfortable for one game but he'll get over it for next game and jump back into his regular things like normal.
Every single player tapes his stick but doesnt mind crossing the opponent team's locker room. That's something that you start doing half-seriously at first when you're kid, but then you develop a "borderline crazy" habit out of it, like Mr. Crosby says here. There's nothing wrong with it though.
It's hard to hate him as a fan, I'll admit. I used to dislike him a lot but I always respected him for his skill and passion. But players just don't hate him for no reason. A lot of guys are different on the ice compared to off the ice and when the players and coaches think he cheapshots and and plays dirty then he probably does because they see things we don't. But he is a stand-up guy off the ice and I wish more people would see it.
Neutral standpoint here (Blackhawks fan) Crosby is undoubtedly the best player in the game when healthy, (Datsyuk/Toews/Malkin coming in after) and the game would be much better off with him playing night after night. I don't like or dislike him, but I do have a tremendous amount of respect for how he plays and handles the game.
You see vids and the dirty crosschecks and all that is ridiculous. Hes the best in the world, hands down. Cant argue with 35 points in 21 games coming back from not playing for a year. And 66 in 41 games last year and rode a 25 game points streak.
A guy named E-Dubble wrote a song using the sample from the intro song. It's called "Night Tables" check it out if you have time. You won't be dissapointed
Gino not only played pro for 3 years pro before Crosby...he was DAMN GOOD in that league...where young guys aren't usually given playing time. (not counting Nail Yakupov's recent stint in Neftekhimik)
Sid: Rock/paper/scissors for who goes out last?
Geno: Nah, I’m just gonna go out last.
Malkin raises a very good point
Here's a better point 102 pts in rookie season for Crosby
Not really Crosby is way better super league or not
"3 years super league " 😂
XD Geno is the best
Always loved that. Makes the best player in the world go out before him; so badass.
Can't even imagine how incredible it would feel to be a pro hockey player, all these pre-game warmups and rituals, the friendships you make, the feeling walking out onto the ice for a game, scoring infront of a huge crowd...incredible

gotta love him
Say what ever you want about Crosby, he is undeniably one of the best players to ever play hockey.
amen
Why do people hate Sid? Canadian kid, best hockey player in the world, gave our country a gold medal. Shouldn't we embrace him?? I don't get it
+Nick R Plus he's a nice guy. You never hear about him doing stupid stuff like some other players.
LAC1962 i feel like people don't like him for that reason for some reason. that he's too quiet. id rather have a guy that keeps to himself instead of partying an posting shirtless pics like a dummy *cough cough evander and patrick kane*
+Nick R He's not the best in the world. He's very good but not the best
Justin ODonnell maybe not this year but the best player in the last decade
He's gradually coming back though...
People hate Sid because hes a great player. If the Rangers were to get him, everyone in NY would love him. Same with Philly. I personally like Crosby
Eric Rowland but people need to understand that he started in this league at a young age so he needed to adjust to the NHL
+nils4545 ovi is way better. Plus Wayne Gretzky is still alive and you didn't say active player. And Sidney is the biggest whiner and diver in the NHL
+nils4545 he isn't better than ovi or Gretzky. Do you know who Wayne Gretzky is?
+nils4545 you seriously think he's better than the best player in the world and better than ovi?
Eric Rowland yah he is
Not a pens fan but you gotta respect Sid
He is a player that people love to hate if he isn't on their team, his stats support his efforts on the ice, perhaps he does moan a little too much to the refs, but he's the captain and he has tremendous talent.
I'm a PENS fan.
I'm a Bruins fan who r probably the second biggest rival to the pens behind Philly & Sid is my favorite player
dvon1097 respect to you my friend
+dvon1097 I hate the Bruins but I think you guys take a backseat to the Rangers and Caps
Yeah he's done it all. Hurt and not Hurt. Heck of a player
That cup looks like it has multiple diseases on it
henry birkeland so do you
henry birkeland hahaha

you know what, i really hope this guy gets well soon.. he's a good guy.. honestly.. i get a good sense of tradition in him..
Ah me, 3 years Super League.
-That was said like a Boss !
Ewww that cup!!! Gotta love him, though... he's such an awesome player!
I wanna go last, I need a car...

Couldn't agree with you more, people always bash him for being a "whiner" and he rarely ever does that anymore.
Liev Schreiber is a great narrator, he's excellent on "Hard Knocks" as well.
Sid is first class just like Mario and Fleury
WOW! Everything is so funny here! Sid's short legs, voice, lucky cup and moustache, Geno's dumb face, stupid soccer game :)
For some reason I imagine Malkin had a tattoo that says "UKRAINE STRONG" on his arm
Hed probably have to laser it off the way things are now
Fuck Ukraine
Yikes
Where they are playing Soccer I got to go there and watched them come in from a gaMe. Couple players came out and said hi. Was the coolest day of my life
Lmao did y'all have to mention the cup?

@SpiritMatthias thank you so much SpiritMatthias, that was nice of you to take the time and respond my comment! You rock dude :)
PS, you made my night!
Only hockey player ive ever seen do a solid interview
I'm not a massive Sidney Crosby fan, but I am a massive Pens fan. My favourite Pens player at the moment is Malkin, closely followed by Duper.

That cup is beyond disgusting.
He's a new cup. A Stanley Cup.

@97thehockey The song is "Hospital Beds" by Cold War Kids
Haters gonna hate. Not a Pens fan, but I respect Crosby. The guy has unbelievable talent. Anyone who has ever been around the game of hockey or has half a brain should see that.

I love my city and I love my team! woooooop!
It sure would be funny if those pre-game soccer headers are what's shaking his brain around!
The opening song is Hospital beds by Cold war kids
Anyone know the song name?
Isnt those rituals are just synonyms for OCD?
Phaellos it could be but not necessarily. Some players like Lidstrom had completely different routine when he is playing on away games. A person with OCD would be someone who's been doing same thing over and over and would have a severe reaction if certain things aren't done in certain way to the point where he/she becomes not able to function. I don't think Sid would freak out or anything like that if he misses his pre-game rituals. He might feel uncomfortable for one game but he'll get over it for next game and jump back into his regular things like normal.
Ur basically saying every single hockey player in this world has ocd...........
Every single player tapes his stick but doesnt mind crossing the opponent team's locker room. That's something that you start doing half-seriously at first when you're kid, but then you develop a "borderline crazy" habit out of it, like Mr. Crosby says here. There's nothing wrong with it though.
superstitions? almost every player believes in at least one
Rituals, superstitions, preparations, making sure that everything goes perfect
COLD WAR KIDS HOSPITAL BEDS IS THE SONG!! I LOVE IT TOOOOO!!!
It's hard to hate him as a fan, I'll admit. I used to dislike him a lot but I always respected him for his skill and passion. But players just don't hate him for no reason. A lot of guys are different on the ice compared to off the ice and when the players and coaches think he cheapshots and and plays dirty then he probably does because they see things we don't. But he is a stand-up guy off the ice and I wish more people would see it.
geeeeno! he is tooo cute!!
0:43 why so close?
Because he's beautiful, that's why!
HE IS BACK
Neutral standpoint here (Blackhawks fan) Crosby is undoubtedly the best player in the game when healthy, (Datsyuk/Toews/Malkin coming in after) and the game would be much better off with him playing night after night. I don't like or dislike him, but I do have a tremendous amount of respect for how he plays and handles the game.
My favourite video in TH-cam. 3 years super league!
just watched "Crosby curses like a sailor' . Wont be able to look at him the same again...
Wouldn’t Crosby have the largest cup...
Isn't that something;)My Mom just said it this morning again.She also swears like a trucker,badass Nova Scotian gansta Mom.
tell me whos on your home team that is better??
You see vids and the dirty crosschecks and all that is ridiculous. Hes the best in the world, hands down. Cant argue with 35 points in 21 games coming back from not playing for a year. And 66 in 41 games last year and rode a 25 game points streak.
Thank you!
tht cup is nassttyyyy

A guy named E-Dubble wrote a song using the sample from the intro song. It's called "Night Tables" check it out if you have time. You won't be dissapointed
Song: Hospital Beds by Cold War Kids
Gino not only played pro for 3 years pro before Crosby...he was DAMN GOOD in that league...where young guys aren't usually given playing time. (not counting Nail Yakupov's recent stint in Neftekhimik)
lol crosby new ritual is having concussions
As I flyers fan I can honestly say Crosby is fucking monster!!! Loads of respect for that guy
DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT'S UP WITH THE FANNY PACK ON THE LEFT SIDE OF HIS HOCKEY PANTS??????
Somebody gotta steal that luck cup lol
Lmao! When they kick the soccer ball in the roof "Thats so bad!" XD
they hate him because he is nice, People take his kindness for a weakness, "From a flyers fan"
Lmao Geno gets his way
oh Sid~ rock, paper scissors... like Evgeni would know. :)
A guy named E-Dubble wrote a song using the sample. It's called "Night Table" check it out if you have time! You won't be dissapointed
