Crosby is the most advanced hockey player of all time. Watching him skate is poetry in motion. He has no weakness in any facet of the game. Best overall hockey player of all time.

I always new Crosby was great. But I've never really noticed his foot work. This is awesome, thank you.

The way he skates is far beyond the hockey we play today. It's truly blessing to be able to watch him sate and experience such a beautiful and solid style.

The amount of skill craftsmanship and athleticism displayed in these clips is on a completely different level from everybody else on the planet. -Flyers Fan

yeah dude this is an excellent video. I like how you highlighted a specific aspect of his game and not just a bunch of highlight reel plays. awesome

Mastery...both Crosby and the video editor. Great eye for skill.

2:04 I love how Steve Mason looks back like "is that even allowed?"

He's breaks more ankles than all of the NBA

His skating skills are from another world.

Love or hate the guy, Crosby is hands down the greatest player of our era

It is so easy to look past his skating ability when he plays because it just looks so effortless. The heel to heel is so incredibly difficult.

This is such a subtle yet unbelievable part of his game, it might also be the most important

Excellent. Every kid playing hockey should see this.

Yes after 4 years of this video being posted, I’m still watching it over and over !

GOAT edgework

Mason's reaction is priceless, he couldn't believe how accurate the shot was aha

We really are seeing a legend playing. I'm a flyers fan but i can appreciate this.

I try explaining this to people on why he’s the best in the world. But everyone is is caught by his puck handling and shooting skill. Skating is where it starts

I love the look on the goalies faces when he scores those highlight level goals. They look around like how the hell did he get the puck in the net like that, they then look behind them to see who it was and the "ohh that makes sense now" face is just priceless. He's the one guy that no matter how stupid he makes you look be it player or goalie, it's accepted solely because the greatest player in the game did it to you.

Damn, that's incredible. I've never been a hockey guy, probably because I didn't do it while growing up. I am just learning to skate and I can now see why the sport deserves attention. It's a shame that most fans seem to reduce it to beer, fistfights, and broken jaws when work such as this is going on right in front of their faces.

This shows up in my recommended every so often and I watch it every time, every time I am still amazed

These technical vids are great. It’s awesome that there is a player like Crosby who graced the NHL. This is the stuff I hope the new generations will review and practice to improve their game. The dude is just incredible and someone to really pick apart in terms of technique.

Mastery at every step. Pure magic. We are very lucky to be able to see this.

This is my favorite video ever. That digging into the ice is music to my ears.

One of the best skills compilation videos I've ever seen, on top of the fact that Crosby's edgework is stunning. His ankle turnout and how he can swivel his pelvis on a dime is incredible, this really shows it off best.

I learned so many things from just watching Crosby and trying it by my self. This guy is my role model and that won’t change no matter which players will come.

I’m mesmerized by all aspects of Sid’s game. He’s still wowing us with unbelievable things. I watch this video whenever it comes up in my feed. My fav hockey player ever!

His play style is an art, true professional

Steve keep doing what you are doing. I am a huge fan. You are an enthusiastic fan who brings common sense to things. I really appreciate that. I have been a die hard leafs fan for a long time. Thanks

Simply amazing, both the video production and Crosby.

Crosby is one of the best ever. He will most certainly be a in the NHL hall of fame. Thanks for being a penguin Sir Crosby.

Great video man! I watch your videos before every game and practise and I love how you highlight specific parts of Sid like edgework or backhands! Keep up the good work!

I have never noticed how GOOD AND AMAZING crosbe is at his edgework thanks for sharing this with us! :D

Amazing, that's all I can say, great job editing the videos too! I can never get enough of these!

I come back to this and the puck protection videos every now and then, to me they are still the best showcases of any hockey players talents outside of scoring and passing and speed. There are plenty of videos of that out there but these videos are unique and highlight parts of a players skill most fans dont pay attention to.

Truly an incredibly well done video. I've watched this so many times over the years.

You are one of the best artists on KZfaq... Truly inspired work!!

Every young hockey player should watch these videos. Not only does it show great drills it also shows how they pay off in game. Great Job Laflamme.

I didn't realize how great a skater Crosby was until I saw this video. The heel to heel move allows him to leave the other skaters in the dust whenever he wants. The 3 strides around the net is ridiculous

i watch this video 3x a week...nice job!!! Philly Fan

This is awesome, more please :) Most dominant player since Lemieux. We are so spoiled as Pens fans

can't wait for the season to start if Crosby continues like he's played since the holiday break mvp will go to him

This is such an important part of the game and I love how you highlighted it. My hockey coach makes us do a drill called side the kids where we work on his type of edge work

a work of ART on every Move.

These videos (excellent, insightful, entertaining) are a very good argument in favor of "diversification". Out on local rinks, I see a lot of people hyperfocus on a single aspect that brings them great satisfaction, which however distracts them from working on other things they might actually learn to enjoy, if they gave it time. A good example being exactly this video: footwork, edgework, skating sideways, pivoting for puck protection, using your skate blades as "extra stick blades" .... there's just so much to add to the toolbox. And Sidney shows it makes a massive difference.

I still come back to this video years later it’s so good

I've been looking for a video like this for a while I love how Crosby uses his edges

LaFlamme. Please keep up the good work! I think I'm speaking for many people when I say it means a lot that you make these. Thank you, man!!

One of if not the best puck protectors in the league.

Que c'est beau. Chapeau pour avoir aussi bien capturé l'élément qui le rend si unique et dominant. Excellent vidéo mec!

That's why heel-to-heel is called Crosby edges, sick video !!!

It's so cool seeing the recognition of a great player who has really put the work in, you can't just develop edges like that.

Phenomenal! Excellent video best Crosby compilation I’ve seen by far. No one close. Especially not Mr. one shot #8

Great job at getting these clips! Nailed it.

Crosby is such a masterpiece. It amazes me how he mixes his natural skill with vigorous training on all aspects of the game. His footwork, shot, the way he reads the play is just insane. This is why hockey is such a great game. It takes people who start as average people with a will and determination like no other who push themselves to the limit to become the best and get into the NHL. Amazing video!

4:45 - 6:49 is awesome video presentation! With the music at the high points, the announcers over the score and just the right ends to each clip too.

Watching Crosby skate is so satisfying.

awesome video side. great clips and music. keep it up. had me watching all the way through

Brilliant job, keep going man!

I watch this before a pick up game. Never fails to pump me up. :-)

incredible video thanks for posting

my brothers friend played with Crosby at St. Mary's. he was a senior and Crosby was a freshman and said that crosby was almost impossible to bump off of the puck even at 14. and this dude was 18. haha, I bet those guys felt like crap being schooled by a 14 year old at the time. now, probably not so much seeing just how good he is.

I must add that I've watched your 2009-2013 Ultimate Highlights like 50 times and have downloaded all the music you use for these videos. You're the fucking man

5:20 might be my favorite highlight. The fact he's two heads below the boards and maintains puck control is stunning.

Sidney Crosby is a god like he is unbelievable the skills of playing hockey is unbeatable! This guy is my absolute favorite 🤩 hockey player!

Bruins fan here and Crosby is the best to do it in modern day hockey so far.

Wow this video is amazing!🤩❤️

incredible power and balance, just insane

OMG I LOVE THE PENS AND THIS IS THE FIRST VIDEO IVE SEEN NOT CALLING HIM A CRY BABY!!! Skills are AMAZING!!!

his skating looks so easy. Great player

Skills from another universe. Damn. 😵

I was watching this vid as a kid And im still watching it🖤✊

I love this editing! Just followed.

His footwork is amazing

Amazing technique. Amazing video!

Wow, look at the sequence at 4:45 and the angle of his skate as he charges towards the goalie and the angling of the blade back down to not risk cutting the goalie! The speed and reflex to do that is just amazing, pure class!

Sid's skate control is just unbelievable. Its going back a long ways, but reminds me of Yvan Cournoyer who also (for that day) had great edge and skate control. Sigh - I still miss the great Montreal Canadian teams of the 60's and 70's.

Sid the kid will always be remembered in canada for the golden goal! Gold medal in 2010 🏅

Greatest of all time

Beautiful intro, loved it

I was born into a hockey loving family, i was born at 7pm on a Thursday evening. It was the beginning of the game and they won that night! I have adored the pens ever since

What a great video ! Amazing job xXLaflammeXx . Thumbs up for sure !

Best all round hockey player I have ever seen. I grew up in the 70s & 80s too.

Imo Crosby is the strongest skater/ top 5 of all time. So smart, everything he does has a purpose, so amazing

I’m really not a fan of Crosby but man does he have my respect. Incredible work ethic with a clear passion for the game. I admire his footwork so highly.

Awesome video. Thanks Laflamme!

love him or hate him you cant deny those stats, this is how he gets them, guys like this are just masters of improv

My power skating coach told me to watch this, he taught me the heel to heel move that he does. It is so useful and a great skill to have with the puck. As you saw, he used it to face the play while going around the net. Great for playmaking.

your vids are awesome man. I've been blown away at what this kid does on a nightly basis but never makes a highlight reel unless it results in a goal. Been thinking for years there needs to be an iso view on Sid to just collect all the amazing things he does that goes generally unnoticed Also, can we take a moment to appreciate that like to dislike ratio in a Sidney Crosby youtube video? I would believe this is some uncharted territory.

awesome montage!

he's a beast, amazing

Seriously I've watched so much hockey and so many player's highlights and just regular shifts by them in games, datsyuk and Crosby are the only two guys that I say to myself by myself out loud "wow". Like this video just is incredible. He is like if you had to build a perfect player he would be the stereotype for it, and datsyuk you literally just can't explain. He does stuff that literally you've never seen players do and to do it in the NHL just makes your jaw drop. As a Detroit fan I watched him every night and there were always at least like 3 or 4 plays that never made highlights but you would just laugh out loud because you had never seen it before. Sid and pav just always make good decisions with the puck, they make everyone on the ice with them better, and they both are threats on the ice no matter if they are in the slot, behind the net, or 180 feet away from the goal. I remember watching that assist I the finals and out loud said to my friend "holy crap, did you see Crosby rich there." I would give a slight edge to datsyuk because I truly believe there has never been a player with more skill than him then you combine that with being one of the best defensive forwards ever and his off the charts vision and iq I think he edges Crosby but Crosby is right there and then a big drop off to everyone else like mcdavid, getzlaf, Tavares, kucherov, and Kane. Again Crosby is like the perfect player. I saw someone describe it perfectly on watching datsyuk "it's like if you watch enough hockey you recognize all the plays, movements, and strategy as hockey plays and your brain processes it. But when you watch datsyuk it's like stuff you've never seen and your brain doesn't recognize it as hockey and you just don't know what to think of plays he makes." Great vid on one of the best ever.

It's one thing to have the footwork and stick handling, but the way he seems to always finish the play with a goal, that is very impressive.

Mother of god!!How that dude making those cool skills!?Hardworker!👍👍👍💣

What a complete player.

Amazing not many ever had the edge work he has, maybe 3 or 4 others, this is what finesse is all about, egde work.

Crosby uses CCM / Reebok Ribcor ice skates. Probably one of the best skates out there special designed for agile, quick and extreme tight turns. I love those skates! I'm using one of those myself and ofc I'm not a Sidney Crosby but I feel like those skates fits perfectly for people who are using a lot of edges and instant sudden turns. Worth to try out if you haven't.

He makes the D blow tires left and right I love it!

my goodnes this dude is on another level!!! i didnt even know you could do that juking with edge work like that
