Touch The Trophy
Sidney Crosby is maybe the most polarizing superstar the NHL has ever had. (I admit to being a big-time Crosby stan, but I really don’t understand the other side of it. If you can’t appreciate rare greatness, well, what the hell do you even watch sports for?) But I hope we can all come together and ...
The Senators Pestered The Shit Out Of Sidney Crosby
Sidney Crosby was the reason Marc Methot lost part of his finger in March, albeit on a routine play, but who needs an airtight reason to pick on Crosby, anyway?

I'm Not Sure Sidney Crosby's Brain Is OK

I Have A Weak Take On Matt Niskanen's Hit On Sidney Crosby
It’s been a while since we’ve seen Sidney Crosby lying on the ice like that, but it was immediately and frighteningly familiar. Crosby famously lost a year of his prime to concussions, so it feels like too much to hope for that we’ll get to see him again over the final month of the postseason....
Capitals Win Wild Game 3 In OT After Blowing Late Two-Goal Lead
With two minutes left to play in Pittsburgh and the Washington Capitals leading 2-0, it seemed a mere formality that the Caps would win Game 3. However, the Penguins pulled their goalie and Evgeni Malkin scored to make it 2-1 with just under two minutes to play. Moments later, the Pens’ Justin Schul...
Sidney Crosby Leaves The Ice After Headshot From Matt Niskanen<em></em>
The Washington Capitals are in Pittsburgh tonight for a must-win Game 3. They dropped both Game 1 and 2 in Washington, and now they have to win on the road to keep their season alive.

Sidney Crosby Hits Guy In The Dick, Scores Incredible One-Handed Goal
In the opening minutes of the Pittsburgh Penguins game against the Buffalo Sabres, Sidney Crosby whacked Ryan O’Reilly right in the dick and balls with a casual nonchalance that would make Draymond proud. Seeing how O’Reilly crumpled to the ice, though, this didn’t look like much of a love tap:...
Sidney Crosby Turned Antti Niemi Into A Backboard
You can’t really dunk on your opponents in hockey, but Sidney Crosby got about as close as you can when he pinged a shot off of Antti Niemi’s shoulder from a tight angle, waited for it to rebound back to him, picked it out of the air, and bonked the puck in off of Niemi’s back....

Sidney Crosby's Called Play Worked To Perfection
The Penguins have been the clear better team in both Finals games, and they’re up two games to none. But it doesn’t always work that way; the sample size of a series is too small for puck justice to win out every time, and indeed, both games have been decided by one goal. Individual plays carry the ...

Sidney Crosby Scores Right In Jeremy Roenick's Dumb Face
