He was extremely popular with the fans and did amazing charity work in Montreal, including a $10 million donation to the local children's hospital, but his flashyness isn't what the Montreal management like, so unfortunately he was traded

Personally, I believe the cup belongs in Canada. It certainly has been a long while. As for being a whiner, a captain is supposedly to talk to the refs and complain, simply doing his job. There are some captains out there that rarely back their guys.

Sorry, but Crosby was whining to the refs almost every shift - before he wore the C.

As a Pen fan, I've just learned to face the music. Crosby will not be going anywhere till retirement. The team just views him as too much of an asset. As for how whiny he is, could it just be misinterpreted brain damage? You'd seem pretty whiny too if a couple screws were loose in your head too... or it could just be an example of modern upbringing... I haven't met a millenial yet that thinks if they don't get what they want, "it isn't fair!" isn't the appropriate response. ...OR he could just be doing his job and there's a lot for the Pens to complain about. All I know is that at least I'm not a band wagoner that jumps on to his team only when things are good... like the rest of the city I live in...

Was it him that fans in other cities would rate his dives when hit. He learned the league was protecting him so take advantage of it.

Robert “It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone. You count on it, rely on it to buffer the passage of time, to keep the memory of sunshine and high skies alive, and then just when the days are all twilight, when you need it most, it stops. Today, October 2, a Sunday of rain and broken branches and leaf-clogged drains and slick streets, it stopped and summer was gone.” ― A. Bartlett Giamatti robertkimble.us/tradingcards

Ugh, just as long as Crosby doesnt win, though i doubt the Pens aren't the true best team in the league.

And he already announced he will honor the donation even after being traded away. I think it was like a million a year type thing, but I may be wrong.
