@Matthew McGhie Makes no sense for him to fake it. Lemieux owns the pens (partially now) the pens where on the verge of being relocated to Kansa's. Crosby saved the penguins franchise and made Lemieux money and cups. Also they have a great relationship
Was she though, either she’s not up to the hype or they had the worst sound guy because she was very very quiet. Think it’s the quietest rendition of a National Anthem I’ve heard.
Thank you so much for posting this video! As a hockey fan, it’s amazing to watch Sidney Crosby’s very first NHL game! I remember how much anticipation there was towards him in the summer of 2005. He’s been a legend from the very beginning of his career and he will be in the HHOF one day! I’ve always loved to watch him play-to be barely 18 years old and dominating the NHL is a truly incredible accomplishment! Crosby is a LEGEND and a Canadian ICON!
Hindsight is so crazy. At the point when Crosby debuted, not only was Mike Lange still doing the TV broadcasts, not only was MARIO LEMIEUX STILL on the team, but friggin John Barbero was STILL the PA announcer. Still doesn't seem like Crosby has been around THAT long...but he has.
I went to the last 2 games at the Igloo in 2010. I grew up a Pens fan, later switched to Carolina because back to back Cups really brought out some people who made it no longer fun to cheer for them, and it felt like a pilgrimage. I still have the metal tickets they gave out to everyone in attendance commemorating the final game in the regular season at the Igloo. PNC Arena is awesome, especially in the playoffs, but the Igloo will forever be the greatest arena I've ever been to.
Man I feel so old I remember being 5 years old watching that and really starting to idolize Sid it feels like just yesterday!!! Time flies when you watch this and think it’s old time hockey 😟
Crosby in my opinion is still better than Ovie. Crosby knoes how to lead a team to a cup. Ovie is just a goal scoring machine. Either way we are all lucky to have them out there on the ice to witness.
My military roommate in 2005 had played minor hockey with Crosby and still had him on his MSN around this time. Sid's display pic was the team pic from the World Juniors. He's just another Canadian kid playing hockey.
weird little footnote: i was shocked at the end of the anthem because literally on every FSN/Root/ATTSN broadcast they have always showed Sid doing the sign of the cross at the end for as long as i can remember. it’s just weird not to see it here lol.
@@v4v819I honestly don't remember. I need to find the stub. It bothers me that I've lost it in my many moves over the years. I had a friend with season tickets who sold them to me at cost. The hype with him was so much I'm sure they were ridiculously expensive actually.
@@TheUnforgiven69 Relax bud. Gretzky is not on some untouchable pedestal. Not saying they are better, but Lemieux, Orr, Crosby and eventually Mcdavid are a lot closer than you think. I personally say Orr is the GOAT and Lemieux and Gretzky are basically equal.
@@Stagnant_Gravy so why didn’t anyone else put up numbers the way Wayne did ? I understand you don’t like him but to have that type of opinion makes you an idiot. Someone that knows absolutely nothing about the game of hockey. You’re a goof
I remember watching Oceanic ( QJMHL ) games just to see Sid the Kid ( although most people would call him "The Next One" back then ). He was dominating. I've never seen one player carrying his team like he did. He could do it all. One of his most underestimated abilities is his sheer strength. Even in his rookie CHL year, Sidney had stronger legs than veteran CHL players. He was extremely strong. Everyone who saw him play back then just knew he was going to be as dominating in the NHL.
You know you feel old when Sidney Crosby and Christina Aguilera look young here. But you know you feel like shit when they are still performing and look good today.
Who had the most hype as a junior between Lindros, McDavid and Crosby? If they were all eligible the same year, who would have got picked first overall? I don't mean who's been the best in the NHL. I mean just going on their hype in junior. Who goes first? Throw Mario in there too. Rank them 1-4 in order of how they'd be drafted.
You know youre getting old when 2005 looks like a vintage old school hockey game
yep what the fuck

Just look at how many players didn’t have visors. 😮😬
Lemieux looked like a proud father after he scored.

Same way Gretsky looked to getting Mcdavid in Edmonton
@Matthew McGhie why the hell would he fake smile in that situation

It’s weird to see Crosby without the “C”
Lol yeah, and i’m remember that, during the first season at middle of season the direction put a letter A on jersey of Crosby at 18 years old.
NorthSideTV my Sid jersey has an A lol. Probably one of the few that does.

Yeah

Was looking for a Bergy comment
I thought the same thing. Now he’s retired!

18 years later, Sid the Kid is creeping into the top 10 all time and was Connor Bedard’s (who was 3 months old here) first NHL face-off.
“Sidney Crosby slap me silly” -announcer
Mike Lange
His name is mike lange
Slap me silly Sidney
I am sure he knew how weird that was when he heard himself saying it.
@@RJKYEG you clearly don't know who Mike Lange is...

@@v4v819hahaha they absolutely don't do that to "everyone" who scores....
In Toronto they do! @@The_Bad_Guy.
Feb 20th 2021 is his 1000th game in the league. And still a beast. Just an amazing career
Now it’s 2023 and he’s still tearing it up in the league lol Sid will easily go down as one of the best to ever do it
Dec 16th , 2023. Crosby has just pulled into 10th all time in scoring and will move into top 10 by the end of the season.
2024 and he did something again, I'm sure.
on pace to score 50 goal this year@@eggrolll
Christina Aguilera is a big deal for a regular season hockey game, lol
And the announcer botched the pronunciation of her surname. Lol
I've learn that one should however, never put an own flair on a national anthem. Even if a great singer it should be sung more "normally"
And thank god she never came back
I heard the announcer say her name, thought the woman sounded good until i remembered it was christina singing
Was she though, either she’s not up to the hype or they had the worst sound guy because she was very very quiet. Think it’s the quietest rendition of a National Anthem I’ve heard.

Круто. Следущий сезон будет юбилейным! 20 лет в команде! Выиграл всё! Красавчик!!!
4:29 what the hell is the faceoff there? Lol
Asking the same 😂
Used to be a rule where if the puck went out of play or something like that they would take the face off at the spot it left the ice
lmao
@@3thanwood517 that makes sense, thanks!
Said the same thing lol
thanks for this. i was five years old when sid made his debut.
Ol' Christina was looking good!
Ew
Slap me silly Christina!

Not even a pens fan and really miss that arena. The outside was iconic but I thought the seating area looked so awesome and different.
Was a great barn, So many great memories.

@@andrewelliott1592 you switched allegiances? Because why?
It's impossible for this to not bring a smile to your face
This kid looks like he could be a regular NHL’er
Crosby is the man!
Great player and playmaker and scorer.
Can’t believe he played his 1000th game today
Sid is a goat idc what anyone says
He is definately a winner a champion but the goat? That belongs to another canadian....
@syntheticmaplesyrup7217 he said a goat not THE goat, as in crosby is one of the all time greatest, which is accurate
Sidney Crosby has been with the Penguins for nearly 20 years and he leads the Penguins in franchise records!!!
What franchise records?? Lemieux still owns almost all of the significant ones.
Man I feel so old I remember being 5 years old watching that and really starting to idolize Sid it feels like just yesterday!!! Time flies when you watch this and think it’s old time hockey 😟
LOL dude feels old and was born in 2000, you're still a baby.
i miss this hockey, no fans siting on their cell phones.
what do cell phones have to do with hockey
honestly crowd involvement this way is better. so it does have to do with hockey
Nothing against the current Ring Announcer, he's fantastic,, John Barbero was who we all grew up with. Loved his calls.
No doubt
Crosby plays his 1,000th game tomorrow evening.. Love you 87🖤💛⚫🟡
Congrats sid 1000games. I was at your first game. One of the greatest of all time.
His first game in Pittsburgh or first NHL game in New Jersey?
First game in pgh.
First assist on Orpik and Jackman goals. You know he's going to be good.
Love that crosby and lemieux got to play together.. Passing of the torch. I hope Crosby gets to do the same one day to the next young star.
Crosby in my opinion is still better than Ovie. Crosby knoes how to lead a team to a cup. Ovie is just a goal scoring machine. Either way we are all lucky to have them out there on the ice to witness.
A shot taking machine. Look he where ranks all time.
@@kozmeetorez ? Hes like 6th all time in goals
@@deckerhanson5265
And he's 3rd all time in shots all ready. Meaning he is shooting puck more frequently than any one in the history of the game.
My military roommate in 2005 had played minor hockey with Crosby and still had him on his MSN around this time. Sid's display pic was the team pic from the World Juniors. He's just another Canadian kid playing hockey.
Vintage mike Lang is one of the highlights of this video
Holy sh!t. Almost forgot that Mario and Sid played together at one point, and Christina Aguilera was still hot!
The good old days.
1000 assists later. Congrats Sid the kid
When Sid retires the Penguins will just threaten to relocate again and magically get another superstar center.
There was never a threat to leave on the basis of a player. The decision to stay was made before he was drafted. It was all over an arena
How the years go by. And he’s still damn good

I miss this FSN goal ticker
Sid’s playmaking is outer worldly even as an 18 year old
The announcer said Christina’s last name wrong😂
Man where has the time gone? Hockey is gonna look different when Sid packs it in.
I like how Crosby scored his first nhl goal against the Canucks current head coach Travis Green
Where has the time gone..wow
Im from the future, this kid has become on the greatest hockey player

Now today he has played his one thousandth game in the NHL
2023 and he’s still top 3 player in the league.
he finished 16th last season
@@timchumichuck306 F stats. He’s still number 3 in the world in my opinion.

Crazy to think he played his thousand game this year! I was 2 when this game took place
Where’s my time machine? I wanna go back! How much the world has changed for the worse in 15 years.
You aren’t kidding. Terrible
both absolute legends

The face off at 4:30, am I too young for having ever see that 🥴
I feel like they eliminated those face offs a decade ago? Maybe a bit more.
I miss fans so much man....
Как это было давно.
Auston Matthew scored 4 goals in his debute first game the goat 🐐
Then becomes a 60 point guy for the rest of his career lmao
I was in 6th grade at the time but my team was the Sabres. Probably the last time my team was even good lmao
He'll be playing his 1000th game this saturday
Сид и Марио до сих пор в одной команде.
Mario Lemieux really mentor him really good
I dont care what anyone says, I think Christina Aguilera has the greatest voice of all time.
Look at that young Bugsy Malone
Here after his 1000th game... so sad to think he isn’t Sid the kid anymore
Anyone else watch this on tv today lol?
Love it
I was 1 years old on this day
It was that time all the NHL veterans were retiring from the game
''Crosby picking up the garbage''
''Maybe i shouldn't have said that"
The Pens did it in style!
7:50 uh what
And he just had his 1000th game

Can someone please explain to me why the faceoff at 4:29 was in such a weird spot? Was that an old rule or something?
Sidney Crosby - first NHL game in 4:3 😂
Christina was still a dime
I think Vancouver's coach was by the net when Crosby scored.
4:30 why did they drop the puck at the top of the circle?
I would’ve been a toddler when this happened. Man Sid has been in this league for a long time.
To think jack Hughes is a first round pick after this ...
О боже 2005 год, будто это было в прошлой жизни
The real hockey i know 😮💨
I miss that old boys of winter theme song
You know you're old when you're watching a video of Christina Aguilera and she's hot.
Come home Sid...finish your saga in Canada
500 goals!!!!!!
On 2nd thought, she did a Great job.
