ok, The kid proved he can play the game and rack up points, but still in my opinion i dint think he should have the C on his Jersey after his first NHL season...

I don't know who's being more disrespectful - you, And-o for another not-so-thinly-veiled dig at Saku, or the others for dissing Sid the Kid and misspelling his name even!
Pfut!

Stevie Y was named Red Wings captain sooner in his tenure than Crosby.
I realize that.... but I'd never compare him to the likes of Mr. Stevey Y..... at least not yet.
Also, Stevey never have an ego like him.... @ least none that I've witnessed. Sid squawked & squawked last year.... drove me nuts... I can't imagine what he'll be like now....
I hope he tones it down a bit. I remember when they had him mic'd last year (on a few different occations)... he would even talk over what the coaches were sayin' & would tell players to do it "this way or that way" instead, even gettin' b!tchy at times. You could see he was pissin' a lot of players off. It reminded me of a 5 year old kid complainin' constantly in the back seat of a car yellin' orders like..."Are we there yet?"...... "you should turn here", "Are we there yet?"..... "don't go by the map, listen to me"...... "Are we there yet?".... " You aren't drivin' right, want me to drive?"..... "Are we there yet?" G** Dammit... why aren't you listenin' to me "ARE WE THERE YET?".... lol... that's a hard pill to swallow.
At your work.... Would you listen to that kind of naggin' from a newbie? A young rookie comin' in, takin' over & tellin' you how to do your job? (without the authority to I might add) ..... @ least this season he'll be expected to speak up...
Regardless of what I just said, When you have such a crappy season like they did, maybe a change like this is what's needed. Hopefully his "drive" (pun intended ) will help the team out this year. They seem to need a kick in the pants, & who knows....Sid might be the one who can do it. (unless of course, his drive is what hurt the team last year.... I didn't pay close enough attention)...
