  1. All these doubters in Pittsburgh (for this season) …
    all I gotta say is
    NEVER BET AGAINST SIDNEY P. CROSBY
    On AND off the ice …
    told my wife I’d leave her for him 🤣

  2. That's a leader who controles everything in his power to lead himself and his environment up to success. It's a thing of beauty! Even in the bigger picture his attitude helps to keep players interested in joining the Penguins. Cup ambitions at this stage are very, very ambitious, but the fact we still talk about it is an accomplishment within itself.

  3. I stand by my word. Every “new gm” inherites a mess , like we all said Ron had when Jim left …they wouldn’t have a new job if there wasn’t a mess to clean up …if Pens Miss playoffs again , you really blame Hextall?????? Come on …..

  4. Curious about other fans … if Pens miss playoffs AGIN , and sure looks like they’ll miss. , who do you blame more ….Ron or Kyle….?

  5. I'll say it again……….we as Pens fans are very very privileged to have a captain like Sid but also Mario!!! Both are the best of the best. Love the show DK.

  6. I've been a fan and a very loyal one of the Pittsburgh Penguins since before they ever won a Stanley Cup. I was on skates at six years old (1980) and Mario Lemieux came to be my idol. I love the penguins and Crosby is a very very unique individual and a great player in so many ways. Let's Go Pens!!!

  7. Love the show DK, i live in Ontario Canada , tune in to your show all the time, thank you for your hard work giving us updates and thoughts of the pens. Just want the boys to make it to post season . Thank you kerp up the good work. Go pens

  8. DK – Have you ever been to Cole Harbor,, N.S. – it is an awesome place to visit to learn more about the ways that Sid the Kid is a person who loves others and is never rude or aloof.

  9. Not just one of the best hockey players ever, but a top-notch human being too. In a world full of people seeking personal fame for its own sake, Sidney Crosby consistently always makes it about how to best lift others around him while never seeking the limelight for himself.

  10. His Idol was no other than Stevie Y. I think Sidney will follow in his steps after his playing career with beng GM of the Penguins . He is ao detailed in his life that anything he does he does with hard work and ultimate process.

  11. Been a fan of Sid since 2005 and even flew to Pittsburgh from Chicago in 2016 to watch them play (against the Blackhawks) and it was a great experience, especially watching Sid score. ❤🐧❤️

  12. Ah the corner of Portage and Donald…remember it well.
    Don’t get to close to the Red River, it can get scary with the weather at times!😮

  13. Thanks DK. Sid to me is one of a kind. The time and hard work and countless hours is much appreciated and respected. He is going to the Olympic games and that speaks volumes to me. Great show DK

  14. Sid started his career with the entire team on his shoulders and has continued to carry that burden with grace and strength.
