Why does Crosby fall to his knees everytime he scores?

Question

And what's with him sticking his tongue out all the time?

Answer 1

It's his goal celebration.

Answer 2

This is a good question, Why is Crosby always on his knees, Do we really have to say, what is that hair on his chin ? is it his, or leftovers. The whole tounge thing now thats just nasty.

Answer 3

it sure beats that stupid happy dance Gretzky used to do

Answer 4

Pick your battles

Answer 5

I don't think that's a Crosby thing. Many players do that and I don't know that Sid does that every time.

Answer 6

re tongue: He wants to be like Mike... :-)

re knees: Praying to Satan for giving him the power to score. (hey, everybody can't thank "God" all the time).

Answer 7

hes a diver thats for sure. oh well he looks good doing it.

Answer 8

he's risking a pulled groin if he keeps it up

Answer 9

Of all the things we pick on him for, I hardly think this one matters.

I'll tell ya what- he was great last night.

Answer 10

And hmm, how do you celebrate your goals?

Answer 11

because he can....go pens

Answer 12

i always thought Ovechkin was the one with the tongue, but oh well.

didn't see Crosby fall to his knees last night, but then again I missed his first goal.  if he did it was most likely due to it being his first goal in weeks.

thats not an insult btw, its true.  he hasn't scored in 5 games prior to last night, and 5 games ago was against Philly, back in early May.

Answer 13

Why not? That's the way he celebrates. I'm not a Crosby fan, but who cares? Why does anyone celebrate the way they do?
