Crosby's glove

Crosby glove

The picture where Crosby is shaking Jeff Reids hand. Is it just me or does his glove not say his name. Maybe I can't see right now but it looks to say something other than his name.

Darryl 87

It's his nickname, which was given to him by teammates after he scored 7 (maybe 8) points in a single QMJHL game. Darryl Sittler holds the NHL record for points in a single game with 7.

OH ok thanks for clearing that up for me.

Read the first post and I happen to like Sid. He's a great player. If you think other wise so be it.

looks like it reads "spoiled brat" to me... :P

As much as I love a Crosby bashing, Crosby is no spoiled brat. He worked to get endorsements, sponsorships etc. through hockey in his life and his parents were in no way spoiling him.

How could you say a spoiled brat. He's a kid with talent. And for anyone who was gonna say all he does is complain watch a Pens game see. From all the games almost every time he says something to a ref something actually happened.

Agreed^^^ He went over the line a few times but most of the time he had a legit complaint. Hatcher knocks his teeth out-no call. Later in the game Hatcher high sticks him in the mouth-no call. Crosby goes ballistic and gets sent to the box.

This scenario played out time & time again throughout the season.

Its called "paying your dues". He'll be done with it soon enough, unless he stays the same.

Where was Gill on this one?

Its weird to actually see Crosby celebrating with his teammates for a chance and not pushing them away. Regardless, here is Belak.

You wish your team had him, and I completely understand.

His skill? Absolutely. His bullshit attitude? No way.

I have to disagree, I wouldn't go as far as calling his attitude "bullshit." He may look like a whiner, but Gretzky was the same way at his age. He's just a really fierce competitor, and doesn't like when things don't go his way and isn't afraid to show it. I'm 100% positive that by the end of his career he will be considered a very classy player. Also, he only had 11 less points than our top 3 prospects(Stajan, Steen, and Wellwood). He needs to mature obviously, but you make his attitude out to be much worse than it is.

[mack 44]

But Gretzky's Gretzky and shouldn't have this other kid's name put in the same sentence as his name.

I think Crosby is an exception. You're not supposed to get 100 points in the modern day NHL at 18 years old, he did it and it's incredible. You don't do that shit at 18.

[mack 44]

He wasn't 18 by any means, but once upon a time Joe Juneau got 100+ points as a rookie. Then again the NHL was good back then.

Good point, but I doubt he'll turn out like Joe Juneau. Anyone who watched him this year can definitely say he is the real deal. If he doesn't up his point total this year, I'll buy you one of those big wedges you like.

Its not like people thought Joe Juneau was garbage his rookie year when he got 100+ points. They all thought he'd be the real deal, too.
