Here for another 12
July 2, 2012Some exciting news for the penguins fans or Crosby fans out there, Sidney Crosby a 24 year old from Cole Harbour, Nova Scotia played hockey since he was three and I think it really paid off.
Sidney Crosby the man who was out all of 2010-2011 season with a concussion and then out at the near beginning of 2011-2012 season and then surprised everyone once again with his skill has done something some people would call a little reckless. Ray Shero a couple days handed Sid the Kid a contract extend of $104.4 million and asked him if he felt like signing it and agreeing to stay 12 more years, and well not to any one’s surprise Crosby took a pen and signed it. For the next 12 years we will see if the Kid can show that him getting $8.7 mill a year was a good decision.
Most people call it a risky and irresponsible move since Crosby has already had 2 concussions and the having the 3rd he will have to call it quits, but do you think that Sid will let that happen? I mean concussions are pretty rare as it is so to think that a man will get one any time soon may be known as crazy. Even if someone tries the Penguins got a couple goons on the team to keep him out of harms way, and those Goons are Brooks Orpik, Aaron Asham, and Deryk Engelland, not to mention the sort of goonish MVP/ Super Star Evgeni Malkin protecting Crosby’s back.
The super star is amazing and hope that he continues to impress with many more years to come and everyone will always love the amazing small town Canadian man Sidney Crosby!
