Sydney Patrick Crosby

Sidney Crosby is a young Canadian ice hockey player who plays in a responsible position as a center forward. Sidney Crosby is known for becoming the youngest captain to receive the Stanley Cup, as well as the first hockey player to win three of the most prestigious competitions - the World Championship, the Stanley Cup, the Olympic Games - as team captain.

The athlete also set a number of records based on statistics: he became the first player in the NHL to receive 100 points and also at the same time 100 penalty minutes in his debut season, in parallel, Crosby set other records, became the youngest hockey player in the league with a total of 100 points, and then - and the youngest with 200.

Sidney Crosby was born on August 7, 1987 to a goalkeeper's family, which explains his passion for hockey. True, the father, unlike his son, never had a chance to play for the NHL.

Sidney's hockey biography began in early childhood, according to the hockey player himself. In an interview, Sidney Crosby said that he first picked up the club when he was two years old. It happened in the basement of the house where the hockey player's family lived. There was a drying apparatus not far from the "training site". After a couple of throws of the future striker, the device was completely and irrevocably disabled.

At the age of three, Crosby Jr. was already confidently skating. Soon the boy began to train at a children's school, and in parallel with hockey he played tennis.

Sidney Crosby's sports career began in 2003, when the athlete first played for the Rimouski Oceanic Junior Hockey League. Crosby played for the national team for two seasons. Both seasons received the titles of top scorer and best player.

In the summer of 2014, Crosby was offered a contract by the Hamilton team. The athlete was supposed to play in the team for three years for $ 7.5 million. The 17-year-old hockey player refused the tempting offer. Sydney's refusal was motivated by the fact that he was not yet ready to play for the professional senior national team. The athlete was cunning, because for two years in the junior league, the hockey player made journalists and coaches talk about himself. Wayne Gretzky even said that only Sidney Crosby is capable of breaking NHL records.

Crosby played his first season for the NHL in 2005-2006. The young man was lucky to play 20 matches with the NHL legend Mario Lemieux. But due to frequent injuries, Sydney ended his career in the middle of the season, by which time he had already set new records.

The next season was marked for the hockey player with new victories and a new status. In May 2007, Crosby became the captain of the Penguins team. Then the hockey player was not yet 20 years old. At the end of the season, Crosby signed a contract with the club, according to which he was supposed to play for the Penguins until the summer of 2012. The contract amount was $ 43.5 million.

2007-2009 was a difficult period for Sidney Crosby. In one of the matches, Crosby injured his ankle and was temporarily out of the game. Then there was another injury and again missed games.

The team was unstable, so the owner decided to replace the head coach. Michel Terien was succeeded by Dan Biles. The Penguins' game has become more confident. At the end of the season, Crosby became the third in the list of the best scorers in the NHL.

Crosby led the team to the Stanley Cup final twice. For the first time, the Penguins lost, but a year later they took revenge with a score of 4: 3. Both times "Penguins" met with "Detroit". At the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver, Sydney scored the winning goal in the final of the USA-Canada match, and four years later, at the Sochi Olympics, he repeated this success and received a second Olympic medal.

In the 2013-2014 season, the hockey player's contract with the club expired, but Sidney Crosby renewed the contract, and became one of the last athletes who took advantage of the loophole in the rules and signed a contract for 12 years (today contracts are limited to 8 years), while the salary of the famous hockey player has increased from $ 9M to $ 10.9M

In 2015 at the World Championships held in the Czech Republic, Sidney Crosby won gold again. This made the hockey player the 26th member of the Triple Golden Club, an honorable group of hockey players who won gold medals at the Winter Olympics, World Championships and the Stanley Cup.

They say about Crosby that the hockey player is equally good in defense and attack, the athlete sees the hockey field perfectly and reacts quickly to the situation, taking shock positions. The strengths of the hockey player include high-tech skating, but frequent injuries and explosive nature are the player's disadvantages.

At the same time, Sidney Crosby has parameters that are quite average for a hockey player. The athlete is 180 cm tall and weighs 87 kg.

In 2005-2010, Sidney Crosby lived in the house of Mario Lemieux, and then bought his own house nearby.

The hockey player is not yet married, says that it is difficult for him to find a girl who will understand and share this lifestyle. The ideal woman for Crosby is a friend who is ready to endure the absence of a hockey player and who will love a man not for money. Sidney Crosby is not a womanizer, the press does not write anything about the athlete's love affairs.

In 2008-2009, the athlete met with the American Katie Lutner. His girlfriend was engaged in modeling business, which is probably why the relationship between Syd and Katie was in full view of the press. The couple subsequently broke up.

The hockey player does not flaunt his personal life, does not maintain an account on Instagram or on other platforms, so it is difficult for fans to find out what is happening in the life of an athlete.

In addition to hockey, Crosby produces his own clothing in conjunction with the Reebok brand. The athlete says that they came up with the models with the whole family, it was interesting. Sydney loves expensive cars, good wines and computer games, although the hockey player usually plays them only on airplanes.

The hockey player prefers to spend his free time on the shore of a lake or river. The athlete loves places where there is no hustle and bustle, but there is calmness, nature, tranquility, alien to megacities.

In 2016, the athlete again entered the Canadian national team, this time to participate in the World Cup. The competition was held in Toronto. Crosby has traditionally become the captain and led his own team to victory. Sidney Crosby himself was recognized as the top scorer, and also declared the most valuable player in this year's World Cup.

In 2017, the hockey player received an invitation to participate in the National Hockey League All-Star Game for the second time. This is a friendly match in which the strongest existing players in the league participate. The ice hockey player had already participated in this event in 2007, making Sydney the youngest player in the NHL to be voted into the All-Star Game.

In 2017, the Crosby Pittsburgh Penguins' team was unstable, alternating between wins and losses. Sidney Crosby, although he remained a legend of the club, made the experts say that the hockey player is losing ground. However, such conversations were also conducted in 2013, which did not prevent the athlete from concluding a contract with the club and even improving its conditions.

Nevertheless, in 2018, the team nevertheless overcame a difficult period and began to regain ground. But the star of the games was no longer Crosby, but the Russian hockey player Yevgeny Malkin. In the game with the Detroit Red Wings, Malkin even received the title of the best player of this match.
