When fans debate that Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby is the face of the game, they often named his love for the sport and his ability to share that feeling as one of his top qualities for an NHL ambassador.
One fan shared on Wednesday on Twitter an amazing story about Crosby during the offseason that proves how much Sid is truly the best player in the NHL. And not just on the ice.
The story goes that a family was vacationing this week in the Bahamas and saw that Crosby and his girlfriend were sitting in the same restaurant with another couple. The parents and their 10-year-old daughter who noticed their favourite player was close wanted to share their passion for the Penguins with him, but were too shy to go bother him during his vacation.
But the young girl decided to go over anyways and chatted with Crosby, who was delighted to meet fans and spent time talking with them about the Penguins.
This is already pretty amazing seeing that the captain is in his offseason and quite secretive about this private life.
The family was very thankful that Crosby took some time to speak with them only to find out that he had also paid for their tab at the restaurant and had left an autograph and a note for the young girl.
I mean you can talk about how great the player is, but come on, how amazing of a person is he.
