| Format: | Sidney Crosby has been the lynchpin of the Pittsburgh Penguins for 13 years, leading them to three Stanley Cup victories. He has won the Art Ross, the Hart Memorial, the Maurice "Rocket" Richard and the Conn Smythe trophies twice, the Ted Lindsay Award three times, and the Best NHL Player ESPY Award a record eight times. Internationally, Sidney has helped Canada win Olympic gold twice, World Junior gold and World Championship gold, but he is the only player ever to have captained the winning teams at `each level. He has scored a goal so famous it has a name. Sydney is a great talent. But at the heart of what makes his story an "Amazing Hockey Story" is his determination and dedication when faced with potentially devastating injuries. Sydney never gave up. He worked hard to get better - even when that meant doing nothing at all. Lying still in a dark room for weeks on end, not knowing the outcome, was harder than winning the Cup. Author Lorna Schultz Nicholson has a long history with the Crosby family, giving young readers a personal look at Sidney's incredible story. |
