There have been 4 super-hyped NHL prospects in recent memory, Gretz, Lemieux, Lindros, and now Crosby. The two French prospects out of those four may now have wound up as Penguins. Lucky for Pens fans. And unlike Mario, Crosby is fluent in English and French. If the Pens win the Crosby sweepstakes, that may save/turn-around the sport in that city in much the way Mario did.
