From Pierre LeBrun at Sportsnet.ca,
It’s easy to sometimes forget that Crosby is only 20-years-old. We’ve already read and heard so much about him for half a decade that it’s scary to think he’s going to be front and centre for another 15-18 years.
But already I see a noticeable change in his maturity. I vividly remember coming to Pittsburgh for the team’s rookie camp in August 2005 and a shy, 18-year-old prodigy from Cole Harbour, N.S., coming down the escalator at the airport and looking down nervously at a throng of media awaiting his arrival. He patiently answered all the questions, like he always has, but his answers were naturally limited by the inexperience of youth.
Now in his third NHL season, his answers to the media are deep and analytical.
more… including the tale of CNN’s Wolf Blitzer, and some confusion about who the heck is Sidney Crosby.
