- With Sidney Crosby preparing to play in his 1,000th NHL game, the Pittsburgh Penguins presented him with gifts and a touching video tribute before puck drop.
- Sport
I hope they do something to celebrate Sid when fans come back. He deserves it.
Sid is this generation's ambassador of hockey. Skilled, talented, passionate, competitive, successful, and yet still humble, socially conscientious, and down to earth. Great player. Great person.
Congrats Sid and thank you for being the role model kids today can look up to. 👍
#goStars!
@@xmarine73 they better retire his number I stg
He's been celebrated PLENTY really. His money and his cups make him feel good. Plus look at how getting the love from his teammates makes the guy emotional. Letang shows up and the waterworks almost started.
@@DanK123 terrible take
@@bombkita Not really. I cry no tears for a guy who's literally one of the best to ever play the game, had his ego stroked his whole life and is worth over 50 million dollars. Please. Everybody's had to make sacrifices in the past year. 500,000+ sacrificed with their LIFE. Sid can sacrifice by not having a whole arena cheer for him just once out of the thousands of times they have and will in his career. It's a perfectly honest take.
parents are like "yeah we get it our kid is good at hockey, how many times are we gonna have to congratulate the guy" hahaha
he got teary-eyed when Letang and Geno were talking about him.
Three brother for ever imagine when fleury go to Las Vegas...
That one got me...
Instablaster...
The man has been robbed......
Imagine a full PPG paints Arena...
Congratulations from Steve yzerman and super Mario is all you really need tho
So does that mean Shea Weber was robbed? Imagine a full Bell Centre
@@ethanwagensveld5496 Montreal probably has the best fans in hockey but there is no way that any active player will mean what Crosby means to the pens
@@ethanwagensveld5496 who?
I don't know, I honestly felt the energy without the crowd. That video was really well done, the NHL always does these things well. Almost always, anyway.
it has been such an honor growing up in the era of Sidney Crosby.
... and Evgeni Malkin, one of the best duos in pro sport history.
And ovechkin. That rivalry is the best
And ovi, and kaner, and stammer, and mcjesus, and a bunch more. Hockey has never been as good
You guys missed out on real hockey. Now its purely a finesse game. I still enjoy it. The speed is incredible but it’s not the same
@@peterdragon6367 ok boomer
It’s amazing how humble he is. The guy is the epitome of professional
Always loved that about him and same with Gretzky. Some of the nicest most humble people who have never done anything bad or caught up in a scandal
@@Benthewall-vb9ny I don't get that from gretz at all, he seems all fake humbleness for me. Sid on the other hand what a straight shooter, top five all time for me no doubt.
@@Benthewall-vb9ny Except he started his career whining and crying about everything.
One of the greatest players to play the game
*the greatest of all time
@@theredviper9842 cap
@@theredviper9842 one of the greatest. He is kinda far from people like Jagr, Lemieux, Gretzky, Yzerman ect.
@@RetreatHell518 if he was playing back then when it was a lot easier to score he'd be better than all of them no question
*best of our time
As a Caps fan, congrats Sid! You’re a great player and a legend!
Growing up in Pittsburgh my whole life, going through all the bad years just to luck out and draft Sid we are so blessed to have an amazing person and player. Like him or hate him.
Still the best in the game today. That pretty boy will never be able to hold 87’s jock strap! 3 cups, playoff mvps, gold medals, golden goal, league mvp, plus tons and tons of other accolades. Safe to say 87 will always be better than 97.
McDavid is going to have more Harts, Lindsays, and Arts than Crosby, and it’s not even a competition. But gold medals? Crosby might have him beat if the NHL keeps skipping the olympics. Cups? McDavid can get 3, maybe 4, maybe 5-he’s young. Now rockets? Yeah, Crosby might have Micky D beat there.
@@VexJinks McDavid will have less cups than Toews, Kane, Crosby, Malkin, Kopitar, Bergeron. Just watch. Pfff McJesus my ass.
@@VexJinks Mcdavid has to get to one final before that truly becomes a COMPETITION LMFAO
Congratulations Sid on playing your 1,000th NHL game. As a Caps fan I have hated Crosby but have always respected him for both on and off the ice. He is not only a hall of fame player but has been a great ambassador for the game of hockey and one of the faces of the NHL since coming into the league. It seems not too long ago that Sid reaching 1,000 games was not a sure thing. Glad he was able to come back and continue his hall of fame career. Great ceremony by the Pens organization as well, not that I would expect anything less from an organization lead by Mario Lemieux. Congrats again, Sid.
Life long Pens fan here. Man there have been a lot of battles between 87 and the great 8 over the last 15 years! It's absolutely incredible what Ovi has done in his career too. I just marvel at his durability. I'm waiting for him to catch Gretzky's goal record. With Sid and Mario I always wondered what they would have added to their already impressive resumes without the injuries ect. Anyway we have been blessed to watch these amazing hockey players!
@@VG-iq8xq - I totally agree with you. I actually got to meet Lemieux in DC once and he could not have been nicer. I always hated the Pens but after meeting him and after he came back out of retirement...I have nothing bad to say about him or the Pens organization. I was at the game when Sid and Ovi both scored hat tricks in the playoffs. It was crazy being there and witnessing those guys have a game like that. The best thing about both of them (Ovi and Sid) are that they are not only great on the ice but also great off. I also agree with your comment that we are blessed to watch these guys play. I hope they play many more years with their current teams. I definitely don't want to see either of them leave their current teams. It just wouldn't be right. Cheers to you. Good luck to your Pens the rest of the year. Hope everyone stays safe and healthy and that you do so as well.
As a Pens fan, I can't imagine how bad games would be without Ovi. Mad respect for him, and hope he breaks Gretz record
@@nates9029 As a Pens fan Ovi is one heck of a hockey player the Caps were always a hard team to play.. I seen Ovi do a lot of nice things off the ice especially for fans with disabilities mad respect ✊
It's going to be sad when 87 and 8 are gone from the game. These dudes really went at it for 15yrs. As fans of two great organizations let's just enjoy what's left these two have to give us. I know I will.
Golden goal...best backhand all time....unique plays...congrats on 1000
Old Man Lemieux played with Sid the Kid, good old times!
Not even a pens fan but it was so excited to see for that short time. I always think of the give and go against the islanders. You saw the hockey iqs of them both on display at the same time. Hockey was amazing too during that post lockout year. Sid, ovie and my sabres were actually good too!! Lol. Gotta give it up for crosby. One of the greats. The hype was real and it was shown from game one.
The fans are with you in spirit! Crosby GOAT
I’m a huge caps fan, but I will admit this brought a tear to my eye. You gotta take a moment and pay respect when respect is due.
Legend
Seeing all those other players praise him despite rivalries or differences is why I love this sport so much
So proud of and for you Sid.
Another cup run ???
Habs fan but a Sid fan.
Keep the milestones coming Sid, can’t get enough of it.
🍁 🇨🇦
Молодец Кросби так держать с ❤️ из 🇷🇺
Congrats Sidney from back home in Cole Harbour, Nova Scotia. Well done
First time Kathy is introduced as his girlfriend. Cat's out of the bag Sid!!!
It's been known for awhile, Sid's just very good at not making their relationship public.
@@shirakohamazaki3913 Oh trust me I know. The whole day of the jersey retirement in Rimouski, she was there, not once was she mentioned nor introduced. When the cups are won, she's there, never mentioned. Honestly, a lot of people must still think Sid is single.
@@corey1751 I guess Sid is just very tight lipped about it
After what, like a decade, cat's probably been outta the bag lol. But he's so (rightfully) private he could've been married for years and no one would be the wiser.
@@c.9914 wow you're so beautiful lol.
From a Stars fan who lived in Pittsburgh for several years and got the chance to see you play in person. Congratulations on 1000 games Sid! You are a stand up dude, always made time for us fans when you had the time, and you are undoubtedly one of the greats!
Sid the Kid, what a great ambassador and role model for the NHL and for Canadian hockey. Congrats from New Zealand
Been a Blues fan since 67 but I know greatness when I see it ~ Sidney is one of the best indeed #Congrats
I really hope they do this again when there's fans in the seats. He deserves it!
Honored to have been able to watch him and honored to see what else he has in store!
I’ve been a stl Blues fan since ‘67 but I’ve always appreciated great players & Sidney is definitely one of the best ever ~ Congrats to you sir
I'm not crying, you're crying.
Every Hockey fan is crying.
I cried man. He was my childhood
It was pretty close lol
HOW DID YOU KNOW!
Congrats Sid, well deserved 🇨🇦 🥅
Been a pleasure watching this legend
It’s amazing how I got to see him a few times in smashville. He is unreal and I do dream of him as a pred but know he will never be . Hats off Sid , you are a true pioneer of the sport .
Seeing sid have tears at the end is so heartwarming
I grew up with him as my idol 💙 Pretty emotional for me as an hockey fan. 🏒 His golden goal in OT was the most epic moment I'll always remember from him
The Pride of Cole Harbour
Nova Scotia Proud!
So is McKinnon
I’m from the passage but you gotta respect my guy
The one person that disliked is either a caps or flyers salty fan
Don't forget the questionable lottery that got him on Pittsburgh or winning game 7 in HockeyTown.
@@PrivatelyHanging why are you so upset. It’s amazing milestone for one of NHLS best players. Stop being a loser
Bruh, I’m a caps fan and have major respect for the guy. it’s a shame it took him this long to get it and he couldn’t of had it during a time with the fans in the arena.
@@yogi9116x classy. I respect it
It’s almost always flyer fans. They’re the saltiest fans in the league.
I love in his hometown!!!!
Even as a wings fan i grew up idolizing crosby and wearing the 87 on the ice for him. Much love crosby!
What's with the dislikes? Like him or hate him he's one of the greatest hockey players of all time. If you hate him it's because you wish you had him on your team. #appreciategreatness
He one of the best hockey players to ever do it both on and off the ice. One of the greatest players of all time.
grew up cheering for sid the kid, even if he played for another team - represented our country as one of the greatest to ever play the game, and one of the most respected captains in history
congrats on 1000 games sid, the game will never be the same without you.
Sid is a beaut thru and thru
Congrats!
Greatest player I've ever seen play. (I never saw Gretzky, Orr, or Lemieux in their prime.) Best of his generation and one of the 10 best players who has ever played.
Congratulations on the milestone. Considering the injuries this guy went through, playing 1,000 games was hard fought and well earned.
Поздравляем Сидни от души с этим огромным достижением.👍👍👍💪💪💪💪👌👌👌💯🤝
А что за достижение.....? Подскажи пожалуйста...
Тысячная игра вроде......
Truly a phenomenal player, he pushed the boundaries of the game, motivating countless people to improve their craft. He showed us what hard work, resilience, and passion can do and he's still going strong. You could make an entire all-star team with the top level young players who looked up to him. I say this as a lifelong Flyers fan lol
Amazing career good job one of the greats
That made me cry
I’m so greatful my penguins got Crosby malkin and tanger such great players and great people too
Congratulations, Sidney, you're a great guy, you're a great hockey player. We are waiting for your team to win. Keep it up, Captain!!!
For those who didn't see the Pens-Islanders game that followed, there were more player videos during commercial breaks. Ovechkin and Fleury were two that I remember. Fleury's was the best, he said "it was fun in practice when you tried to score on me. I'm pretty sure I stopped most of them". I miss that grin and those practical jokes he played on his teammates.
Congrats 🍾🎉🎈🎊
Great crowd reaction...
Sidney, well deserved. Tremendous hockey player
About as good a career as anyone can possibly have. He's done it all. So strange to think he'll be retiring sooner than later. Definitely one of the best of all time .
I live in his hometown!!!
I remember his AAA subways team having practice time just before our junior team in the sportsplex when he was 14 and now here we are. Time flies!
Congrats Sid!
Congratulations!
Sidney , thank you 👍👍👍 🔝
A very classy tribute to a classy person; Sid the Kid!
How the time flies. 16th season and 1000 games. Man I'm getting old.
Leafs fan here but Damn Crosby carved up my team for more than a decade...lol
If not the GOAT ...definitely top five ever.!!
Congrats Sid...👍👍
Какой же ты красавчик, Сид!
Так держать 👏🏼
Best backhand in history , best hockey moment of my life when he put it in against USA , thank you sid
Congratulations Crosby 1000 th
For the last decade-ish, I always see him as Captain Canada. And there is some true magic to how he plays the game.
Congratulations
Oilers fan here but how can you not be romantic about hockey? Congratulations sid!
CONGRATULATIONS SID THE FOREVER KID!!!
Here's to 15 more years!!
What a Great career 🙏🏻
Pfft
@@theriotartist better than what you got smh
Top 5 player in NHL history.
I AGREE NO WORSE THAN 7
@@spiritofogun5583 My list is:
Wayne Gretzky
Mario Lemieux
Gordie Howe
Bobby Orr
Sidney Crosby
@@Waders27 I can go with that for me swap Orr and Lemieux and right now Jagr and Crosby are interchangeable at 5. In a few more years Syd's locked at 5. Maybe pushes for Howe at 4 IDK?
Great Sidney!!!
What a legend
Love him. Hate him. Hate to love him. Absolute legend. He’s the blueprint every kid dreams of becoming. Congrats to Sid. He’s not even close to being done though.
Looks like it's easy for him to talk up other players but tough to be the centre of attention. You can get really spoilt having such a great player and ambassador for the sport. Congrats on 1,000 games and onwards. 🍾🎆
Hell yeah, Sid!
I saw someone comment abt his concussions, I really felt like he was abt to be forced to retire as well, and I’m happy he never did
Best offensive awareness I've ever seen, not to mention how he still has elite defense.
Wish I got to see the game
The penguins have to have the best tributes for their players man
Emotional
Sidney Crosby Is Still The Greatest Player In The World.
Легенда, сам достойно заслужил
Crosby is the one star from us kids being born in the 90’s crazy to see
Love this guy. It's going to be sad day when he retires
The best!!!!
Поздравляю Сидни!!!!! Привет Малкину и Овечкину! Привет из России!!! Желаю здоровья всем и новых побед! Браво Сидни! Так держать! Я давно наблюдаю за матчами Сидни Кросби! Это большой талант, уровень Грецки!
Congrats to Sid the Kid
"And of course, more cups"
Best player ever!!!!!!!
The 🐐.
Красавчик! Поздравляем Сидни!
Congrats the great 87 🤴🏾
💛🖤Atta boy sid
Кросби ,до слез трогательно
Лучший !!!!!
4:51 “slap me silly Sidney”
😳
miss fans being there
Wether you like this team or not, Crosby is the best to ever do it and, we get to witness a generational talent first hand. This is what it’s all about , now it’s Toronto’s turn to get a cup LGL
I really hope they do something for him when the fans are back.
