Gord Miller tells fun tale of Sidney Crosby in Winnipeg winter

Sidney Crosby doesn’t mind the bitter cold winters of Winnipeg — at least that’s what TSN commentator Gord Miller recalls from nearly a decade ago.

With the Penguins set to face the Jets in Winnipeg tonight, Miller took to social media on Monday with a threaded story detailing an encounter with Crosby that took place in 2013.

As the story goes, it was Crosby’s first time playing in Winnipeg, and he bumped into Miller and fellow commentator Ray Ferraro.

As I waited for Ray, Crosby walked by and asked how we were getting to the rink.
