Sullivan: Crosby would make ‘terrific’ coach

Mike Sullivan believes that Sidney Crosby could have a future in coaching in the NHL.

Sullivan made an appearance on Sportsnet's 590 Hockey Central on Wednesday and was asked if he could see Crosby get into coaching one day.

“If he wanted to be a coach, I think he would be a terrific coach because he’s such a student of the game," Sullivan said. "It wouldn’t surprise me one bit when Sid’s done playing the game, somewhere down the line — and I don’t see that happening any time soon because he loves the game as much as he does — but I could for sure see him staying involved in the game in some capacity.
