Crosby's favorite player as a kid was Bergeron. Really goes to show how much of a massive legend Patrice is.

Wow, sometimes I forget he's rich and famous, or even a household name, he seems like he'll give you his shirt off his back. He remembered all the kids names, what a role model!

I met him in Germany in the summer, when I saw him I couldn’t believe my own eyes. He is a great guy. So polite, so friendly. Probably the nicest person I ever met in Germany 😂

I got goosebumps seeing him interacting with the kids. Great young man. Great role model. He could easily be full of himself, but this is a young man who left home at 15? to pursure his dream and still appears to have both feet on the ground. A credit to his family and community. A quick glimpse of his sister seems to show that it runs in the family.

Trixon dixon he's talking about the autograph session... Sidney knew all the kids names. Most "hockey clinics/schools" are just money grabs by whoever is hosting it. I am a Crosby hater, I hate the guy, but to see how involved he was with the kids, how when asked if he would be there tomorrow he enthusiasticly said "you bet". He was deeply involved with each player, and seemed like he took the time to get to know each kid, which in my experience growing up in hockey camps and teams, etc, is super rare. I'm 32 so I grew up attending hockey camps and clinics in the 90's and unless you were the top 3-5 players there, none of the adults would even ask your name, or talk to you. They would go out of their way to avoid you. Crosby seemed like he didn't alienate kids based on skill level and to be completely honest, I hate Crosby as a player, but as a person he seems like a really good human with good morals and he seems like he treats everyone with respect, regardless of their job, skill level, etc. And that is a SUPER rare quality in today's times where almost every single person in this world judges people based on their job, skill, gender, looks, etc. He even asked his sister what was the proper term for addressing the female hockey players. That shows a high level of respect for young kids, which not many people have today. I hate to say it, but Crosby seems like a really nice person, even though I hate him on the ice.

makes no sense how people can hate him... one of the greatest players to ever lace up a skate and the nicest person. class act canadian and makes me proud to be from canada .

May God protect Sidney Crosby Always. Hes such a great guy.

Not just a Hockey Player, a great human-- we need more Sidney Crosbys

What I LOVE about hockey players is their grounded nature - their willingness to give back - and their gratitude for the opportunity they've been given to play a game and make an amazing living doing it. Other sports celebrities could learn a lot from watching how hockey players carry and conduct themselves.

He could be the most cocky and arrogant person , but he chooses to be grounded and very respectful. He puts his time into that kids hockey camp . Straight up good guy ! Props to one of the very best to ever play the game 👍

Living in western PA, 90 minutes north of Pittsburgh, you can't help but root for The Pirates, The Steelers, & THE PENS!!! That also means rooting for Sid. Never met him but have seen him on the ice at a couple of games. I'd love to visit Cole Harbour, but I would imagine it can be a bit of a nuisance as other fans travel there to be able to see Sid & get an autograph. I don't think I could take the rejection, so if there's a day or a moment just to say "Hey", in the 'burgh or in Nova Scotia, it'll happen. You're amazing, Sidney Crosby, & will always be "Sid the Kid"!!! Don't ever change & God bless!!!

This shows genuine Crosby. it's important to not attach an opinion to someone from something you don't like about someone (actions on the ice). He honestly is very humble

He has his head on straight, is very humble, and takes time to spend it with his home town and his fans. Great leader, great player, great human being. Reminds me of Troy Polamalu in how humble and REAL he is.

NBA players could really look up to these guys. Real professionals. Don't get me wrong, I am a huge NBA fan and guys like Lowry do go the extra distance for their communities, but guys like Sid, Nat, Gretzky, and many, MANY more hockey players are true role models.

What an absolute beauty in every sense of the word!

Sad the kid is the pride of N. S. Especially Cole Harbour but we all lay claim to him.He's a gentleman through and through. You go Sid. We love you

Can't say I ever get tired of watching this !

What a great person Sidney Crosby is to create such a special opportunity for kids who love the game of hockey.

Great ambassador for hockey! Love his work ethic on and off the ice. Not too many people on earth can match up to Crosby.

Sid is just a class act, great human being good luck the rest of your career

Sid Crosby is the player with the most class of any player in professional sports. He is so humble given his great achievements. He is a model to the players, fans, and kids. TERRY OLBRYSH

This is a great video! His home town is BEAUTIFUL and he's great with the kids! Sid has been living here in my home town of course first with Mario and his family and now at his own place up in the Heights! I remember after their last Stanley Cup win when Sid came home here , he went to the local grocery store in town , just around the corner from where the banner congratulating the win was hanging and he had his picture taken with some local shoppers and some of the photos were shared in our published - once- a week -little newspaper. Always a class act! We're used to a lot of Steelers that have lived here , going back to the Super Bowl winners of the 70's and one night at my work(this was back in the 80''s) I asked(begged) one of the guys that was there if I could try on his ring and he let me! Most special 2 minutes of my life!

He is honestly an incredible person as well as ice hockey player. You can tell he has a good soul. So much respect for him.

It's crazy with all the pressure and expectations that he's lived up to it all! 99/100 people would let it go to their head or crack under it all, he's just stayed the course. Incredible. Also, was lucky enough to spend my honeymoon in 2012 in the Maritimes. What a beautiful part of the world! Crazy that MacKinnon loved Crosby as a kid...and grew into a world-class player himself. He did a pretty good job in Trailer Park Boys too!

You can hate this guy all you want on the ice, but off the ice, you can't hate this man level off class.

What's great is, despite being a top-rated sportsman and a legend within hockey community, this guy still manages to be as grounded and decent as ever with others. I won't name anyone, but there are certainly loads of other top ranked athletes who should have a look at the way Crosby behaves when he's out of competition.

he is so connected to his roots, nice to see. No ego. A nice guy. He is really inspiring the little children.

Solid human being all the way around. What a great and positive experience for those kids they will remember for the rest of their lives.

I love being a Penguins fan. Since 94 I wanted to see them win a cup as that's when I started watching. I have seen 2 now. Pretty sweet. Go Pens

I’m a Die Hard Rangers fan and I hate this guy as an opponent but not as a person or Hockey player. It’s an honor to see him play.

Imagine Sid and Nate coming back to their hometown every summer and giving drills, tips and continue that school for decades. There will be so many more future stars coming out of that city!

Favourite player of all time. Congratulations on everything you’ve accomplished Sidney, you deserve it!

a world championship, 2 olympic gold medals, and 2 stanley cups. Good for you sid...

Mr. Sid, like many other fans, I am in awe of your talent, particularly in the face of what you have endured with injuries. That aside, I can only hope that you choose your final year in the NHL carefully and with mindful precision. The icing on the cake for me, would be to see you capture your final playoff battle with an ending that is second to none. I don't care if it's next year or in five years from now, but I wish and hope that it is spectacular. Why? Because you earned it. In my mind, it doesn't matter if your final run at the Stanley Cup ends in a success. What matters to me, is that you leave this NHL war as the greatest hockey warrior of your time. I don't care if the team is defeated in the second round, as long as I can take in your unwavering passion to defeat the opponent. Of course, I imagine that your team will win the final round,, so give it your all A team with a common vision and unbreakable veteran leadership will be the key. Thank you so much for all you have done for this sport, and I look forward to watching you and Malkin do your magic in unity in the final chapter. Get it done, and Cheers to all, Alan

Love watching this dude play, every time he touches the puck, somethings gonna happen

He did June 12th 2016 in Game 6 against the Sharks. Sid also won the Conn Smythe trophy for being the MVP in the playoffs, narrowly beating out Phil Kessel. This win was 7 years to the day when Sid and the Penguins beat the Detroit Redwings in Game 7 of the 2009 Stanley Cup Final. Congratulations to Sid, all of the players, support staff most notably Dana Heinze and Chris Stewart from Johnstown, PA. Congratulations also to Owners Mario Lemieux and Ron Burkle, President David Morehouse, Head Coach Mike Sullivan and Assistant Coaches Rick Tocchet & Jacques Martin.

What a perfect man to represent our game and country!

I love this Sid the Kid, he makes me more proud to be Canadian.

I considered myself blessed in the sense that I was able to watch Gretzky and Lemieux and now for the past 14 years Crosby and Ovechkin. While Crosby and Ovi still play at an elite level, McDavid, Kucherov, Mathews and Mackinnon are ready to keep it going, hockey in my mind has never been better.
