Who is Sidney Crosby hockey idol?
Asked by Wiki User
Sidney Crosby is a Canadian hockey player. He plays for the Pittsburgh Penguins and the Canadian National Ice Hockey team.
Drafted first overall in 2004, he was to have a fine career ahead of him.
Many experts and fans consider him to be among the top players in the NHL. In his early twenties, he set numerous records and has become the face of the NHL.
He has won the Hart Trophy, the Art Ross, the Rocket Richard Trophy, the Pearson awards, and the Mark Messier leadership award to make him one of the most decorated active players.
As a teammate, he has lead his NHL team to Stanley cup victory and his nation to a Gold medal game victory in which he score the overtime winner.
His huge amount of success has lead many fans to sometimes dislike him. He is also sometimes criticized of being unsportsmanlike. A recent example was his argument "excessive celebration from the crowd" to the referee after the captain of his rivals, Alex Ovechkin of the Washington Capitals, score a hattrick.
Althought Crosby is a no doubt a great player, your interpretation of him can be taken anyway as that is how sport works.

What Pittsburgh penguin goals had the most saves?
Asked by Wiki User
The Pittsburgh Penguins have had many amazing goals over the years, but some of the most memorable include:
- Sidney Crosby's 2016 Stanley Cup winning goal
- Mario Lemieux's 'The Goal' from the 1992 Stanley Cup Final
- Evgeni Malkin's goal against the Capitals in the 2009 NHL playoffs
- Jaromir Jagr's game-tying goal in the 1991 Stanley Cup Final
Each of these goals had incredible saves by the opposition, but the one that stands out the most is Crosby's 2016 Stanley Cup winning goal. This goal was saved by San Jose Sharks goaltender Martin Jones, who made a desperate glove save with less than a minute remaining in the game. Unfortunately for Jones, the puck ended up in the back of the net, and the Penguins went on to win the Stanley Cup.

What percentage of the Pittsburgh Penguins Does Mario Lemieux own?
Asked by Wiki User
he is a co-owner.
Mario Lemieux and Ron Burkle are technically the main owners of the team based on day to day business and overall ownership decisions. There is also an additional investment group that does not make ownership decisions, but are merely investing in the team. I believe the minimum investment amount to get in the investment group when Lemieux took over the reins was an investment of 1 million or more. I don't believe any additional investers are currently being accepted.

When did Pittsburgh first become Pittsburgh?
Asked by Wiki User
Gen. John Forbes gave Pittsburgh its name in November 1758.
Here is some of the text of the Gen. Forbes letter, as excerpted in The Gentleman's Magazine. A copy of the periodical, bound into book form, is in the collection of the Heinz History Center. "I have the pleasure of acquainting you with the signal success of his majesty's arms over all his enemies on the Ohio, by having obliged them to burn, and abandon their Fort duQuesne, which they effectuated up on the 24th instant (Nov. 24, 1758), and of which I took possession with my light troops the same evening, and with my little army the next day. The enemy made their escape down the river, part in boats and part by land, to their forts and settlements upon the Missisippi, [spelled without the fourth S] having been abandoned, or, at least, not seconded by their friends the Indians, whom we had previously engaged to act a neutral part, after thoroughly convincing them, in several skirmishes, that all their attempts upon our advanced posts, in order to cut off our communications, were vain, and to no purpose; so now they seem all willing, and well disposed to embrace his majesty's most gracious protection. "Give me leave, therefore, to congratulate you upon this important event, of having expelled the French from Fort duQuesne and this prodigious tract of fine rich country, and of having, in a manner, reconciled the various tribes and nations of the Indians, inhabiting it, to his majesty's government." Before he left the Forks of the Ohio, Gen. Forbes took one other important action, describing it in a Nov. 27 letter to William Pitt, whom he saw as architect of the British victory. "I have used the freedom of giving your name to Fort Duquesne," he wrote, "as I hope it was in some measure the being actuated by your spirits that now makes us Masters of the place." After a difficult winter journey, Gen. Forbes made it back to Philadelphia, where he died on March 11, 1759. He was buried in that city's Christ Church. Thom MacIntyre, thommacintyre@gmail.com
