The best Sid interviews are with former teammates. Just super chill.

Everyone every year: It's time for Sid to pass the baton Sid: Hold my beer

Not gonna lie it feels kinda weird to see Ovi grey-haired and Sid aging a bit over the past few years. For some reason, I still sometimes refer to him as Sid the Kid even though he is closing in on 1100 games lol

Lots of people comparing Crosby and McDavid. I always just imagine them playing together on the powerplay for Team Canada...Scary good.

It’s gonna be hard to ever get another sid ovi rivalry. Two at the top of their game for 16 years in the same division knowing if you wanna have a chance at the cup you’ll have to go through each other both had unreal supporting cast for years. You just won’t find another one like it for a long time.

Crosby and McDavid are pretty much equal in talent I'd say. The thing is, we missed out on Crosby's prime years due to that dirty, blindside hit by Steckel in the 2010/2011 Winter Classic vs the Capitals. Crosby has better edgework, puck protection skills, hockey IQ, and Vision while McDavid is a faster skater with better hands. Crosby generates offense with his hockey IQ and his ability to see plays happen before they do while McDavid generates virtually everything off of his speed. Obviously McDavid is the best player in the NHL, but I'd take 24 year old Crosby over 24 year old McDavid. I think people forget how dominant Crosby was when he was healthy in his prime years... He was also playing with subpar linemates in a lower scoring NHL compared to today. Not to mention he plays in a much tougher division than McDavid ever has.

Sid's such a down to earth person.

Don't know why they compare Matthews and McDavid to Crosby and Ovi. Yes, Matthews scores a lot like Ovi, but Ovi was at least up there in points with Crobsy. Matthews isn't even close to McDavid. Can't even compare them...McDavid is on another planet

Can’t wait for Bedard vs Michkov

Great stuff.. awesome interview with Teammates/Brothers

Crosby is my goat, love him and everything he’s done, outstanding ambassador for the game and country

Crosby's such a humble guy. Love the guy!

Great stuff ... loved Cody’s pre and post games this year. Fun to see the chirps here. Syd’s the best.

Colby really looks different from when he played himself.

Awesome hockey player .. an great personality.. 😂👍

please this was so good i love it

colby self burns makes me laugh each time. you cant be a comedian if you cant make fun of yourself.

i love how sid is so wholesome

I want more of this!!!!! Please have him interview crosby after they win the cup again this year

20 years from now fans will complain when Sid & Ovi are retired but all we did when they were playing was whine and not enjoy it

As a leafs fan I can say Mcdavid is better then Matthews 100%

Such a great player. More success to you Sid

I am soooo glad he brought up the helmet throw

Well that was a bit unexpected, a solid interview, and still fun...nice work guys

Sid is so friggin class act. Like seriously when you think of athletes at the top of their game (few years ago for Sid)..there is nobody as unimpeachable as Sid Crosby.

This was great!!!

Favorite Winger Award from the Wilkes Barre Booster Club. LOL

Good to see such a successful fellow Crosby!!!

What a great interview! Yeah, they're chill But these guys still operate at a hundred miles an hour All the time... Thx Colby Thx Sid

even when doing an interview with Crosby leafsnet tries to make it all about Matthews

Can you imagine Sid hoisting a 4th. That would be NUTS. They got a stacked team and are on fire....let's find out. Puck drops on Pens V. Isles in less than 2 hours. Let's Go!

Used to hate Crosby but he’s definitely humbled himself. Super chill guy now I appreciate it

Sidney Crosby: huge hockey nerd since 1987

These less-rigid interviews are always preferable. The lob lol forgot he played baseball.

Thanks Sid and Armdog

You know you have been good friends with someone. When you great them, not with a hello or how are you doing, but with “Are you wearing makeup?”

Remember Colby Armstrong when he was with Montreal mainly. Always seemed like a great guy

Sabres fan, but def a fan of this interview. Well done!

Still cracks me up that I met Sid paying parking tickets lol. Saw him two people behind me in line, made a quip like 'Sid...what are you doing here...they actually gave you a ticket? WTF". We laughed a bit and then I went inside and paid my fine lol. Met him again years later when he brought the cup around town so that the employees etc in the town he lived in could touch the cup. He's an incredible human being. And a top 5 NHL player of all time.

Cros leans into the accent SO HARD lol

He's already one of the 10 best players ever. Maybe top 5 by the end of his career 🤔 it will be interesting to see where he ends up. Hopefully he plays until he's 40.

I'll always be Ovie of Crosby, but damn do I love Sid for his personality and sense of humor

Love this raw content

The 3 M's of Hockey, Mcdavid, Matthews, and Mackinnon

Always setting the perfect example for the alpa male, calm, cool, collected, humble and very capable! Sid is no kid anymore . A more committed and determined player doesn't exist. Hof for sure.

Legend

Love Sid ❤️

I grew up hating this guy… I’m a red wings fan and watched them lose the Stanley Cup to the Penguins in 2009. The year after he scored one of the most iconic goals ever 🇨🇦 He won my heart after that, I’ve loved him ever since. He is debatably the best player of all time.

clickbait title he didn't even mention the great 8's name !

sid showed personality here than most NHL guys did their whole career back when i watched lol

MISS THE FLOWER!!! Great stuff tho boys!!! PENS FIGHTING HARD THIS YEAR!!!

Sidney is the best in my books!

Should be MacKinnon vs McDavid rivalry and I wanna see them in the playoffs and battle like 90s wings vs avs

Yes, Sid, go chase another one!

Love it

This was so Canadian, I thought it was an episode of letterkenny

Sid top 5 all time

crosby is an absolute treasure to the game.

Hockey players are such ball breakers. I’m a die hard Ranger fan but when Sid isn’t abusing my team I really find him likable.

So true, if I got to live with Mario I would NEVER move out. Squatters rights

So I do have something in common with MAF

I like and respect you a lot Sir

3:38

Nice interview Vaseline,

They don’t seem as close as I’d expect

OV and Crosby were neck and neck when they were young and their peaks are basically equal (by far the best player in hockey). McD is the only player who fits that bill. Sorry but Matthews doesn't really belong here

If, for some reason, I was asked today to pick any one player for my team for the rest of the playoffs, I would still pick Crosby over McD.

Is there a rivalry between McDavid and Matthews? Looking at their stats i dont see any rivalry there.

Everyone needs more Army in their life.

Crosby what a guy, to me he is a better captain more competitive, better champion than Ovie or McDavid ,or Mathews, he is in a league with Beliveau, Mario and Wayne and yet how down to earth modest guy he is off the ice

Seeing Jeff Carter pop in 3 goals in 3 games makes me think this guy if he keeps scoring could be the difference for the pens.

5:45 HAHAHA

How does anyone hate crosby

sidney crosby? beauty

Matthews is not the new Ovechkin. Leafsnet just compares Matthews to McDavid even though they aren't even close.

Crosby or McDavid are literally me of the NHL.

Transformers War for Cybertron EarthRise , is the show I'm watching. Rare to see 87 speak. ..listening

The wizard of Cros

sid looks so attractive holy shif

Sid is a champ

The goat All around.

I love Crosby

Crosby no longer the points leader but IMO he's still the best player in the NHL. Burke and Crosby are a good match. It's nice to have a boss who loves you.

Why Colby look so sad as he said goodbye

You remind me of an ex translation " Don't screw up and you'll be inside me just like he was!

Came here for Crosby's "Rivalry" with Ovechkin to see what's up. Typical Crosby avoiding all contact on that question and pushing it to someone else. Smh....

Great clickbait title. "Sidney Crosby Discusses His Rivalry With Alex Ovechkin" said like two words about it...

Yellowstone is the best show hands down

Which of the modern hockey players can become the best sniper of the NHL regular seasons and beat Gretzky's record? Consider those who have already scored 500 or more goals, as well as those who received the Maurice Richard Trophy, the best scorer of this season. To get into the TOP of the best NHL snipers, you need to score a lot and play a lot of matches. List of top NHL scorers by career-ending goals per game average: 1. Mike Bossy - 0.762 2. Mario Lemieux - 0.754 3. Sea Denneny - 0.751 4. Babe Dye - 0.746 5. Pavel Bure - 0.623 6. Wayne Gretzky - 0.601 7. Brett Hull - 0.584 8. Bobby Hull - 0.574 9. Tim Kerr - 0.565 10. Rick Martin - 0.561 11. Phil Esposito - 0.559 12. Maurice Richard - 0.556 13. Cam Neely - 0.544 14. Marcel Dionne - 0.542 15. Pat Lafontaine - 0.541 16. Michel Goulet - 0.503 17. Rick Wave - 0.503 18. Nels Stewart - 0.498 19. Guy Lafleur - 0.497 20. Mike Gartner - 0.494 21. Dino Sissarelli - 0.494 22. Jari Kurri - 0.480 23. Ilya Kovalchuk - 0.478 24. Alexander Mogilny - 0.478 25. Joe Mullen - 0.473 26. Teemu Selanne - 0.471 Wayne Gretzky played 1487 matches. In terms of the number of games played, Wayne Gretzky ranked 24th, Ovechkin entered the TOP 60, and the number of players who played 1000 or more games is only 378. All players from the above list played fewer games than Gretzky. And the first five hockey players, although they bypassed Gretzky in terms of the average number of goals per game, did not even play 1000 games. Average number of goals per game: 1. Auston Matthews - 0.626 2. Alexander Ovechkin - 0.612 3. Connor McDavid - 0.521 4. Steven Stamkos - 0.521 5. David Pastrnak - 0.496 6. Leon Draisaitl - 0.47 7. Sidney Crosby - 0.468 Over time, due to age, this indicator only worsens. For example, at the age at which Ovechkin is now McDavid, Matthews and Pastrnak, the average number of goals per game was 0.634. Here all three lost to Ovechkin. The more often a hockey player misses games, the less he will play in his career. Percentage of matches played in recent seasons: 1. Connor McDavid - 97% (seasons 2016/2017-2021/2022) 2. Alexander Ovechkin - 96% (seasons 2014/2015-2021/2022) 3. Auston Matthews - 90% (seasons 2016/2017-2021/2022) 4. David Pastrnak - 87% (seasons 2015/2016-2021/2022) Multiplying the average number of goals per game by the percentage of games played, we get the following indicators: 1. Alexander Ovechkin - 0.59 2. Auston Matthews - 0.561 3. Connor McDavid - 0.508 4. David Pastrnak - 0.429 Ovechkin at the age at which McDavid, Matthews and Pastrnak are now, this figure would be 0.61. Here again, all three lost to Ovechkin. Let's compare Ovechkin and his closest competitor Matthews in the same conditions, namely in those seasons in which they turned 20-24 years old. For Matthews, these are the 2017/2018-2021/2022 seasons. Ovechkin has 2005/2006-2009/2010. In these seasons, Ovechkin scored 269 goals in 396 games, Matthews 219 goals in 325 games. Average number of goals per game: Ovechkin - 0.679, Matthews - 0.674. Percentage of matches played: Ovechkin - 96.59%, Matthews - 87.37%. The product of these indicators: Ovechkin - 0.656, Matthews - 0.589. Of today's hockey players, Ovechkin has the best chance of becoming the NHL's top scorer in the regular season and breaking Gretzky's record. His closest competitor, Matthews, at the same age, has a lower average number of goals per game, and also missed more games.

Ah Colby Armstrong the guy the thrashers got for hossa. What a disappointment you were, but the thrashers were a disappointment. Honestly now that I think about it I’m a disappointment. Everything is disappointing

🐐

He reflects on his rivalry with Ovechkin? Half a sentence?

Sid is still the best! Yes mcdavid is awesome but sid is a leader and he has won it all. Mcdavid has some work to do to get that level

Seem like a couple good guys

Crosby will be 34 and Ovechkin will be 36 starting next season, the glory years are nearing the end, but two years older at their age is a huge difference for a player, you could already see the decline in Ovi this season, Ovechkin got screwed by a couple lockouts and a shortened season twice, he’d have to play till he’s Jagr’s age to catch Gretzky………….too bad

Nobody like Colby. Awesome

Can’t stand the penguins or Crosby but man it’s sad seeing him and ovi get old. The first few years of the Crosby ovi race were such a fun time in my younger life

Sid is aging like a fine wine- damn. The Kid looks much better as The MAN! #CaptainCanada

I'm all for Pens beating those other teams , with like Wilson , Chara on them.

6:10 for those who did not know it is more of an inside joke between the Pens org, Fleury is a guy who likes to get down at parties and often it involved black chicks
