Having his latest goal labelled 'vintage' is meant to be a compliment to Sidney Crosby and his incredible NHL career but it also implies he's getting on in ...
Just last week Crosby passed Gordie Howe with his 18th season with at least a point per game. In NHL history, only Wayne Gretzky has done it more times at 19. Crosby is 14th in NHL scoring this season with 84 points in 71 games.
"I think the most important thing for me is to just try to be consistent," Crosby said."If that reflects that, great, but I just love to compete and want to be as consistent as possible. So that's probably the most important thing." Crosby was also chosen as the most complete player in the league by his peers earlier in the week, finishing with 30.1 per cent of the vote. Boston Bruins centre Patrice Bergeron was second with 18.8 per cent. It's the fourth straight year Crosby has earned the honour in the NHLPA poll.
"You just want to continue to make sure that your game is where it needs to be," Crosby said."That's what I've tried to do. I've been fortunate enough to play with some pretty good players in that span so I think that goes a long way, too." Here's a montage of 2023 Sidney Crosby stealing the puck from everyone all over the ice and continuing to be dominant at all phases of the game at 35 years old. Shame on you for six weeks if you've missed the work he's putting in this season.
