- Last night as the Pittsburgh Penguins played host to the Arizona Coyotes, this was a game that Pittsburgh native Logan Cooley said had been circled on his schedule since the day he got an NHL contract. Now you may have heard of Crosby’s Little Penguins Program, a program started by Crosby in 2008 during the Great Financial Crisis where Crosby came up with the idea to buy equipment that he would give out to kids free of charge just to get them introduced and started in the great game of hockey. The program has introduced roughly 13,000 kids to the game since its inception and one of those was Local Cooley! At 5 years old, the West Mifflin native attended the program in its inaugural first year saying that it was the first time he fell in love with the game and he never looked back. The 3rd overall pick of 2022 was the highest ever drafted player out of Pittsburgh and last night, making his home debut he got to play against the guy that introduced him to the game. Just a real wholesome story line coming into this one. Oh, and the Penguins FINALLY scored a powerplay goal! I cover it all in todays NHL hockey video.

What a heart warming story, mad respect to Sid for making a difference in these kids' lives
Really cool that both coaches let Cooley and Crosby take the opening face off. Must have been a special moment for both of them.
This is infinitely better than the "talks" the main NHL comes out with. So much more in depth, so much more compelling
Great story and hats off to Crosby for giving this kid a head start
This is a great story. It simply shows that just by being kind, you can change the future.. Good on you Sid..
Sid he's not just an amazing hockey player but is an ever better human being!!
Good guy Sid. He makes being from Nova Scotia kinda cool.
Crazy to think that Crosby is still playing at an elite level, while now also facing-off against youngsters who attended Crosby’s charity events at age 5.
What an awesome story! Thank you for being the one bringing this to light. This one deserves attention.
Sometimes I wish hockey players weren't trained to be so boring in interviews cause that's a cool story and I would love to see how hyped Sid actually is knowing that his program helped get a kid all the way to the NHL.
Also, that reffing seemed horrendous. Not sure why someone should be rewarded for having the grip strength of an anemic child: 1:26
This is amazing and it's making me incredibly happy. Hockey is amazing. If anyone needs a reason why I think so, this story is a prime example of it. Thanks for another great video!
god i fucking love sid
Next Man Up, even if you’re a little bit of a homer for Pittsburgh, I need to say that your content is top notch and always delivers timely and relevant NHL news & (brief) analysis. I love it. I hope your channel grows, a lot, and that when it does, you stay mostly true to what you’ve been producing so far.
Your content is nearly always fantastic, sometimes just great! but loved the "sid story" beginning which demonstrates 1/ length of sid's time at the top in NHL & 2/ how nice as a ruthless professional sid is & 3/ how good an idea his youth programme was & remains. yep fair to say i loved this posting & learning about Cooley's development, Another nxt m'up screamer; many thanks.
Once again, very kind of you. Appreciate it!
I know that kid. He went to college around here. I brought him to an mma dojo and he packs a damn punch.
Greeeeat video! I love your stuff. 🙏🏻
Yea baby Cooley is our future. Playoffs in a college arena.
It's like seeing the Rolling Stones in a club.
Cooleyyyyy
great lad. saw & took his chance which can hopefully inspire more youth development.
Forecheck back check paycheck buddy
Didn’t get to watch the game, but I saw the stats on google and saw Carter scored 2 goals, thought it was in a dream😂
When anyone highlighting a game they ALWAYS say 3rd and final frame when its not going to overtime. Its inconsequential but in spirit its like aspoiler alert
Sid the Grampa 😂
1 kid out of 15,000. Thats a harder attrition rate than BUD/S
That is so awesome that Cooley got to face off against Sidney Crosby the guy who introduced him to hockey.
Unbelievable dream come true!!!!
N.B. As great a story as this is the real focus should be on Jesus Christ.
i never knew this before, because Bruins fans only badmouths Sid
every team other than pittsburgh badmouths Sid.
hehe
His dads rich, why was he there?
Go ask him or ask his dad.
Why did Smith not get a penalty for that hit. Is cross checking to the throat legal now. That hit could have ended a career or worse. The league needs to be held accountable if nothing is done.
I was looking for this comment. Dirty hit..
Cooley's interviews already more interesting than listening to Crosby's deer in the headlights interviews.
I’m a rangers fan and still love this stuff I hope he has a good long career I just hope he can take it easy on my team lol
