Crosby's View

Crosby's View by David M*.
The Pittsburgh Penguins came to Town. A very Young team. 3 of their Stars are 20 years old or less.
Jordan Staal - 18 Years Old.
Sydney Crosby - 19 Years Old.
Evgeni Malkin - 20 Years Old.

The Sharks are also a young team. Young teams have fast legs. Fast legs go well in the new NHL with the new rules less than 2 years old. I like it when the Sharks play teams similar in style and make-up to theirs. Makes for a Great game.

1 minute into the game Cheechoo gets tossed for a Game MisConduct. Retaliation from Crosby on Cheech immediately set the tone for the rest of the Game. There were 10 penalties in the 1st period alone. These teams do not know eachother AT ALL, but this meeting had elements of a Rivalry to it.

I am absoluetly amazed at both Crosby and Malkin. Huge Baby Hockey Wonders. Just mind-boggling how well these kids play. This goal on Brodeur was Incredible. Malkin made Brodeur look Silly. Brodeur is the former #1 Team Canada goalie so...


To get a taste of Crosby, who last year in his first NHL season got 100 Points!!!...check out what he does in a Junior League of his a few years back. Thats him behind the Net. I have never seen anything like that EVER!!!

Penguins have a great future in front of them.

But the Sharks Won.
McLaren put the body on Malkin with a nice hip-check. We scored key goals and our Defense stepped up when needed to slow down those two wonders.

awesome capture! B)
i'm a huge pens fan and it's awesome to see a player so up close, especially Crosby. the pens jersey over Crosby's right shoulder at an away game really adds the perfect touch.

It was a good game wasn't it.
I appreciate good players but my heart will always be with San Jose when it comes to NHL teams and Team Canada when it comes to International Competitions.

The Future has arrived In my opinion.
This Kid is the guy that may very likely break some of Gretzkys records.
Thanks for the nice comments on the shot.

I like this shot a whole lot, is this from the pregame intro?
I have to admit i am a fan of the penquins because of Crosby, he is amazing to watch, I think he is so popular as he is essentially living the dream of anyone who has ever played hockey.

Thanks Darth.
Glad you Like It.
It was from Pre-Games. Thats the only time I can get a Shot thats at His Level. Otherwise the shots are 100+ feet up and looking down. Completely Different Angle and View of the Picture.
He Is Amazing. He Is Beyond Amazing. And he is only 19. NINETEEN!!
Just Crazy. I am amazed at the Crop of Young Talent the game is getting right now.

Hockey Lovers around the world. Pens Fans or Not. HAVE TO AGREE that this kid is an Incredible Player in my opinion. If you find me one person who says otherwise - I would like to speak to them.
Thank you.

Thanks Guys.

LMK - Hometown eh. Nice!
I recently saw the Dryer in your HHOF that he used to take practice shots at in the basement.
Thanks for the invite to My Winners Pool. Its been added. Sorry for the delay.

Thanks Billz.
I started off with that screwup but as you can see its up there. Spelt correctly so its getting the connection. I am also keeping the misspelling just so people like me also get here. ;)
