Since 2005, the Philadelphia Flyers and their fans have constantly had to deal with the nagging success of the Pittsburgh Penguins and center Sidney Crosby. From coming into the league with massive media hype around him, to winning three Stanley Cups, constant battles with the Flyers, and consistently being an All-Star, Flyers fans despise Crosby because of his success.
It is almost out of respect that Flyers fans despise Crosby. In Philadelphia, fans 'boo' guys like Tom Brady, Alex Rodriguez, and Michael Jordan harder than any city because, as the saying goes, 'Philly doesn't boo nobodies'.
With Crosby having recorded six seasons with over 100 points, two Art Ross trophies, three Ted Lindsay awards, two Conn Smythe awards and countless other accolades, one recent statistic was uncovered on Crosby that is mind-boggling for fans to comprehend.
Not only has Sidney Crosby averaged a point per game since he entered the NHL in 2005, but Crosby has been averaging a 'point per game' since he was 16-years-old, and has done so at every single level of hockey, including his junior teams.
