Crosby is no fool. He knows enough about motivation not to provide any bulletin board material for the Caps, especially Ovie, going into the Winter Classic. The Pens’ Captain’s style and temperament are vastly different from Ovie’s, for sure, and seems content to let the media beat the hype drum to death but won’t bite despite obviously being goaded into saying something stupid. Crosby does his talking on the ice, which is fine. The Caps should also do their talking on the ice, and whip the Pens’ collective butts in the Winter Classic and hopefully also in the playoffs. That would be sweet.

As a fervent Caps fan, my grudging respect for Sidney Crosby continues to grow. Any true hockey fan has to respect his skills. And his demeanor seems more mature the past couple years, to boot. As for settling it on the ice, I hope the Caps get 8 cracks at the Pens this year. A playoff victory over the Pens could only be topped by a Cup.

A Terminator-like prodigy vs. a flashy showboat? Really, Maxim?

Very glad Crosby isn’t some outspoken, trash talking A**hole……. He’s not the T.O. of the NHL, and that is something we ALL can be thankful for!

Fairly classy words from Crosby. Perhaps trying to not anger a monster?
