There's no question that Sidney Crosby is the best hockey player in the world right now.

The 29-year-old (who will turn 30 in August) is coming off of one of the most incredible calendar years in sports history that was capped off by him capturing the Stanley Cup for the third time.

 

 

It's been a wild 12 months for #SidneyCrosby 🏆🏅🏆

Crosby's career up to this point has been nothing short of incredible, and even using that word feels like we're understating his accomplishments on the ice and his skill.

In fact, when it comes to skill and hands, with young stars like Connor McDavid and Auston Matthews it's sometimes east to forget just how skilled Crosby is.

Here's a friendly reminder of the incredible hands Sid has, courtesy of the Penguins and CCM.

It's incredible to see Crosby's ability on the ice from his point of view.

He and his buddy Nathan MacKinnon were the latest athletes to take the ice for CCM as McDavid and Burns already did so.
