I agree. First, I'm not so sure that this is trash talking. I think Crosby is a great player but, I am getting tired of seeing Sidney Crosby all the time. I would like to see more commercials featuring other skilled players like Ovechkin, Simon Gagne, and Dion Phaneuf. I think the NHL is doing the right thing to promote Crosby because he is an exciting player, but he is not the only player with skill in the NHL. I have seen some other players do some things that are unreal on the ice that could share the spotlight. Also, I feel like the Pens are lucky to be getting the publicity because they are a struggling market(are they still now that they are getting the new rink?) but there are other teams that could use some help. And I would honestly love to see some of the original six teams or some more of the Canadian teams on commercials. I guess I feel happy that there is a player out there that people are excited about but, there are plenty of others in other cities that could make people want to go to a game.
