Crosby Spotted At Game 3!

Crosby works the blue steel

Look up in the boxes! It’s a bird! It’s a plane! No, it’s our captain, Sidney Crosby!

Crosby was spotted at game 3 of the Stanley Cup finals in Los Angeles, sitting in a box with Colorado Avalanche star Matt Duchene.

For those of you wondering “What the hell is Crosby doing in LA? And since when is he friends with Duchene!?”, Crosby’s agent, Pat Brisson, is based in LA. Sid and Matt share an agent, and were guests of his in his box.

CBC’s “Hockey Night in Canada” and NBC Sports both interviewed Crosby during intermission, and it was a welcome sight for us fans. Looking happy and healthy, Crosby told CBC’s Elliotte Friedman that he’s already resumed his normal summer workouts, the first time he’s been able to do so in a year, and that he’s ready to go for next season, which is news I think all Penguins fans are excited to hear.

Crosby also said he’s interested in the NHL’s Collective Bargaining Agreement. The current one expires in September, and if no new agreement is reached, there is a chance there will be a lockout next season. Sid says he’s already met with Donald Fehr, the president of the NHL Players Association, and that he wants to be as involved as he can with the newest CBA.

On a totally shallow note, Sid was looking ridiculously attractive in his black button down shirt, which highlighted his tan. He was also looking more built than I can remember. The shirt was looking ready to rip from his muscles.

As for who he’s rooting for in the finals, Sid gave a typical diplomatic answer, not giving a direct response. That’s our Sidney!
