While he may no longer be a kid (31 years old today), Sidney will go down as one of the greatest hockey players of all time. He has already won 3 Stanley Cups in addition to numerous gold medals, awards, and the hearts of Pittsburgh Penguins fans across the nation.
#87 is special to me. He helped save Pittsburgh Penguins hockey.
Much like how Andrew McCutchen reinvigated the city with a love for baseball.
To merge these two generational Pittsburgh athletes together, I am showing off my Andrew McCutchen on an 87 design.
Topps has had a recent love affair with putting 1987 and 1983 designs in a lot of their products. I am looking forward to those 1989 designs next year.
As an added connection... Crosby was born in 1987.
