As a Pittsburgh native and a Penguins fan….thank you Sid 🦏🙏🏼
Crosby understood he needed to take a pay cut in order to surround himself with better players. This is become more apparent for those who want to win and that’s why Spezza took league min in the end.
This mofo is extremely superstitious, but he claims it’s just routine 😂😭 for example he eats a peanut butter and jelly sandwich before each game, but it HAS to be the same brands each time he eats it. He also refuses to wash his ball cap that he wears after games until the end of the season
Dude nice. Syd is an enigma. You argue with this success
he has the same bday as me 🖤
Didn’t know that! My cousin had the same birthday so naturally it’s his favourite player! 😂🔥👌 Great videos homie!
Who was making 14 million at that time? Lol no one makes that now
I thought he took a lower pay cut to free up cap space so they could built a dynasty
There’s a humbleness in Eastern Canadian values.
Unfortunately this is not the reason for his 8.7mil cap hit. Letang also had a 5.8mil cap hit, his jersey number is 58. They took their jersey numbers as cap hits to save their teams money for other players and have a better chance at winning a cup. Malkin took less money as well on his contract but not much less and was making more then Crosby which caused friction within the penguins locker room due to his selfishness compared to Malkin’s teammates. Between Crosby, Malkin and Letang they were making roughly around 23mil which was a massive discount for these 3 players allowing the pens to compete for these player’s entire careers rather then be a short term powerhouse like the current maple leafs
I can't imagine Crosby and not wearing 87
That’s not the main reason lmao Sid also wanted to win so he would take less to keep the core of the team together. I can’t stand the guy but that’s a captain move if I’ve ever seen one
Thats definetly not true. Weber was making 14 millions that year but less on the next years for an average or 7.85 per year for 14 years. He wasnt making 14 per year.
Did he do it for the obsession or to win?
He also took a smaller contract to leave cap space for Geno
Thanks for covering hockey
The bite of 87
The highest paid player still doesn’t make 14 million today
But Mario mentored him, and was his idol, kinda hard to take and unnessary amount of money from the guy who let you live with him and mentored him.
So when he signed the contract with 8.7 aav that is worth the same % or more of the cap that a player like Matthews signed for a couple years ago. So even tho the caps over paid for Ovie it was market value.
Dude when he signed the $8.7M contract it wasn’t a deal for Pittsburgh at all. You just lie in every video.
This is blatantly wrong. Nobody made 14 mil a year during 2012. Not even close. In fact, no player even today makes that much per year. Also $8.7mil was his CAP HIT to the team, not his total salary. His total salary was 12 million in 2012. The player you’re claiming made “14 million” is Shea Weber. His actual salary was 14 mil, his total cap hit was only $7.857 million. He got paid less than Crosby based on what the team actually paid annually (AAV).
Shea Weber signed a front loaded contract. Essentially 13 of those 14 million dollars were a bonus, for that first year. Shea webers total contract is 13 years. He doesn’t make that money consistently though. For example, his salary in the final year of that contact is only $1 million. His base salary is A LOT less than Crosby’s.
There’s a lot of other factors to explain but I’m not gonna ramble on unless anyones interested. In total, Crosby is making a shit ton more money than Weber.
However, $8.7 is still an underpay for Crosby, and he DID take a pay cut, so that he could stay with Pittsburgh and not simultaneously bankrupt the franchise. It worked. They went on to win two more cups with him. But comparing his contract to Shea Weber’s contract makes no sense. His is far better.
He make that back an hour
Love the Joe Cruz from Chicago Fire meme.
Sids my favorite player! Thanks for covering hockey!
Congrats on not knowing the difference between salary and cap hit.
It's about making the most you can in the shortest time as an athlete, that's fair but usually hurts the team in the long run.
I’m from where he’s from! Nova Scotia!!
He also wears a rainbow dilldo every game
You forgot that part btw
What about him only using 1 cup
$8,787,878
It was an obsession with winning. He wanted to help the team fit more players under the cap. He made a fuck ton outside of hockey. He’s set
Alot of the shit you say is not accurate.. you twist facts for views and clicks. Stop 🤥 🤥 🤥
Think him signing had alot more to do with building a power house team then superstitious and also knew he had to leave money on the table for Malkin and for other good players.
Not sure who was making 14 million… 14 million is like the max now.
Yes and no he took less so other guys could sign. He’s a team player
Sid rules
I wear 85 in all my sports I can cause of my birthday, inspired by Sid
Ur that good it doesn’t matter Ik people saying mcdavid is better in my opinion until mcdavid gets his team a cup u can’t compare them
Still the best
