Yet. I see a lot of Joe Sakic in this kid.

I have to agree that Toews earned the "C" as a sophomore with his attitude and leadership as a freshman.

you're a moron, and this maybe the stupidest thing I've heard this year. Detroit fans are now my most hated, you have no class. Congratulations you've beaten out Phli, Ohio state, MSU, Mich, and USC. I didn't think this was possible but you and all the other low life no class Detroit fans have done it. This is an accomplishment that maybe harder then winning the cup since I've hated these other fans much longer then I have you guys.

Class? How about how Crosby didn't even shake Lidstrom's hand. Captain to captain, Sid should have shown the respect. Lidstrom is one of the most respected defensmen and captains in the league. Sid the Kid is just that...still a kid.

As a Wings fan I have to say that disappoints me.

I like the Pens (when they're not playing the Red Wings that is ) but that type of blatant disrespect shows why Crosby doesn't deserve to wear the C. He didn't earn it, it was just given to him....and its evident.
