Top-10 Sidney Crosby NHL Highlights

[@michaelfusmusic9447]

Sidney Crosby, one of the most complete players of our generation. This kid has unbelievable hand-eye, lower body strength & agility. Whether you like him or not, his talent is special. A legend for sure.

[@KaleFGB]

Special for sure, but most complete of gen? nah, This guy named Datsyuk has the edge there.

[@michaelfusmusic9447]

KaleFGB Datsyuk is indeed one of the best 2-way players alongside Gainey but he is 10 years older than Sid, so I’d put him in the past generation with the likes of Thornton, Iginla, Jagr, Sedin Brothers, Lidstrom etc. I think Datsyuk was more skillful & flashy, but Sid was a better playmaker & had the stronger lower body work & edges. By the way, I said one of the best, I know Toews & Bergeron are both better defensively than Crosby but Sid’s defensive game & backchecking is incredibly underrated.

[@KaleFGB]

@@michaelfusmusic9447 Well that's not how generations really work. They'v both played in the same time period with Pavel only playing 3 years before Crosby, and is still playing today in the KHL.

[@michaelfusmusic9447]

KaleFGB But I’m talking about Datsyuk in his prime, which was 2002-2011.

[@JoshMarshain]

Can we still even call him a "kid"? He's a man now, one who's on a mission to etch his name in the annals of hockey history with every season, not sid the kid anymore

As a long time Pens season ticket holder, I was there for most of them, including #1 in Buffalo, and you could do a whole other list of just playoff goals. I can't tell you what an honor it has been to watch the likes of Mario, Jagr, Malkin, Crosby and so many other great players come through this town and make Pens fans among the luckiest in not just hockey but in all of professional sports. Some lean times might be ahead as so many good young teams blossom in the NHL and the Pens pay the price of success, but what a run of hockey excellence we've seen here in the Burg and with a few tweaks, it might not be over yet.

Guys do that all the time lol.

[@joeydrummer7929]

Yea that’s actually a common way guys score . Marchessault scored that way against Colorado in the playoffs last season . Fanned on the shot as he was coming up to the net but stayed with it, turned around so his back hit the boards and the shot the puck from there and it banked in off the back of Grubauers glove . The crazier thing for Crosby is his goals batting the puck out of midair . That is insane . Especially the one where he flips it up into the air himself and then bats it into the net out of midair . Shits ridiculous

Any one who thinks he isn't are fooling themselves. His puck control/ edgwork is unreal. His vision is that of Gretzky's.
