Crosby leads Canada past Russia in World Cup semifinal

TORONTO – Canada Post plans to feature Sidney Crosby in a series of stamps honoring some of hockey’s greatest goal-scorers.

A nice gesture, to be sure, but perhaps his home and native land should consider a different tribute.

It just might be time to put his likeness on Canadian currency because, as he proved again tonight, Sidney Crosby is money.

He scored Canada’s first goal and set up its second and third, both scored by linemate Brad Marchand, in a 5-3 victory against Russia in a World Cup of Hockey semifinal at the Air Canada Centre.
