Met him in November. Probably the best day of my life

I would argue that the only better human on the planet is MAF.
Man, I hope Skinner can fill the void he left. Ive read that hes the ultimate locker room guy.
There are a plethora of leaders on the Pens, but not a single one that kept the game in perspective and made it fun like Fleury did.
The team lost their identity when they lost 29. Thats not a shot at Sid or Geno or Tanger. Just an observation from a guy that realized a massive shift in the team when the league forced us to move the true center of what we now call the core.

Best leader in all sports right now. We Penguins fans are spoiled, and lucky.

Neutral input from a die-hard NHL fan. This guys performance against the sharks in the ’16 final was next level. His career hardware speaks for itself, but this particular season in 2016 should be the inspiration for future centers. I love to see reddit penguin fans appreciating how lucky they are.

Why is he crying

If you combine natural talent, hard work, love of the sport, winning of both individual, team, and national achievements he may be the greatest athlete of all time.

31 other fan bases thought Pittsburg would be trading Crosby by now to a contender so Crosby wouldnt be stuck at 32nd while Pittsburgh rebuilds. Their within serious striking distance of the playoffs because of underrated roster transactions (goalie, sorry Jarry). Crosby held back far too much speculation on if he wanted a trade. Props to Sid, class act, and he’ll get at least one more kick at Lord Stanley because of it. Hats off to you, dude.

We’re so beyond lucky to have this guy leading the team and city for all these years. Thank you Sid

Pure talent, strong work ethic, a true gentleman, no scandals, and a sexy model. Although he’s only 5’11”, he’s strong and can play physical.

Hockey will never be the same after Crosby, Malkin and Letang retire.
If he stays with Pittsburg his entire career it’s a 3 way tie. Yzerman, Sakic and Crosby. I’m a Red Wings fan and am still bitter from 09’ and hate Crosby but you really have to be a bitter butt hurt idiot not to see what he has done for hockey

I was there! I had goosebumps watching all of this! It was truly a special moment
I can’t wait to see him in the red and white soon
Is there a link to the video?
He’s the best guy arouuuuuuuuuund!
I met him on several occasions and he’s a beautiful human being. So kind, and overall wonderful. Selfless too.
Skinner winning Crosby his last cup would be so peak
Why is he emotional?
Sid is like a fine wine…
…he just gets better with age.
Sabres fan here. You have the best captain in sports, hard agree. Seeing him in Team Canada red is an emotionally moving experience and I can’t wait.
I’ll tell you one thing, and I’m not ashamed to admit it, but my estimation of Sid as a man just fucking sky rocketed.
Sid is top 5 human ever . We are unbelievably lucky
