Tonight on NBCSN: Sidney Crosby one-on-one with Bob Costas

Crosby and Costas

Be sure to tune in tonight at 11 p.m. ET on NBCSN for Sidney Crosby’s chat with Bob Costas in the latest edition of Costas Tonight.

A few excerpts from the interview:

Crosby on scoring the overtime goal against Team USA in the 2010 Olympics to clinch the gold medal in Vancouver: “Scoring an overtime-winning goal in your own country, playing for Canada, a country that’s so passionate about hockey – it’s pretty special...playing for Canada, we always know that expectations are high. But being in Canada, in the Winter Olympics, we knew we had to find a way.”

Crosby on Russian LGBT Laws and 2014 Sochi Games: “Growing up in Canada, that’s something I never even really thought about or discussed – it didn’t matter. Anyone had the opportunity to play a sport, and to go through that was something that was a learning experience for me. I never even thought that’s something that would come up.”

Crosby on his history with concussions: “I look back to the first time I came back from the concussion, and I almost overdid it. I almost hit guys more than I typically would. I went into those areas probably when I didn’t need to almost to prove to yourself that, ‘hey, everything’s good.’”
