Reason to Live Until Next Season #4

The summer months can be long, hot and boring. In hockey terms -- the summer sucks. Beach season is great and all, but it's also a reminder that hockey is still far, far away. Hockey fans, this summer, please try and keep your sanity. To help you survive the long summer months, I'll be taking the time to remind you of the reasons why it's a good idea to make sure you live to see next season. Please, don't do anything rash this summer.

The following is a compilation of Crosby's Top 10 plays. Some of these videos you've seen before, but they are worth seeing again, and again, and again. If you're keeping score at home, Sid going through four Rangers to score is only #4.
