#1 Sidney Crosby

Last but simply not least is Sidney Crosby, who plays for the Caps biggest rival and is a big rival to Alex Ovechkin. He has simply been a pest since he’s entered the league and every Caps fan would give him coal if they were Santa.

Crosby has won three Stanley Cups and has the skill, I’ll give him that. But despite his god given gifts happens to complain about everything. He always whines about something. One example was evident in the dueling hat trick game.

In that contest, Alex Ovechkin had just completed his hat trick and fans were naturally excited and unleashed hats onto the ice. After five minutes or so, Crosby went to the refs to complain about all the hats and telling them to try and get the fans to stop throwing them. Just watch the video if you don’t believe me.

Perhaps the biggest crime he committed was winning the Olympic gold medal, making kids across America cry as their dreams got shattered. Naughty.

We get a dose of eight games worth of Crosby vs. Ovechkin so get your popcorn ready. They will meet in just the third game of the season. No announcement yet on if they’ll wear the reverse retros.
