Sidney Crosby lives and breathes hockey. The 37-year-old is already one of greatest players of all-time and has accomplished everything you could think of at the NHL and international level. Despite that, Crosby remains one of the best in the world, and his motivation has not wavered at all 20 years later.

It is the final men’s international test before the 2026 Winter Games in Italy, where NHL players return to the Olympics after 12 years.

It was inevitable once Team Canada announced Sidney Crosby would join them at the World Championships, but they officially made him captain on Friday.
