led Team Canada to Four Nations victory on Thursday night, and now he's cemented his dominance over Team USA with this ridiculous statistic.
Much like the Golden Goal over 11 years ago, Team Canada and the United States played to overtime in the Four Nations Face Off Finale, with
Connor McDavid sealing the
iconic win with a dramatic goal.
With all of the emotion and the tension heading into the game, it will go down as one of the best moments in NHL and Canadian history, and while it was McDavid that stole the headlines, this is another in a long line of achievements for captain Sidney Crosby.
After the win, an incredible statistic was revealed that showed just how much Team Canada has dominated the international realm over the past few decades, especially over the United States.
With the victory, Sidney Crosby sealed his fifth gold medal on the international stage, while the United States have just four gold medals in the history of the sport, with Crosby's international career beginning in just 2005.
There are many factors that play into this of course, as Crosby was surrounded by the likes of McDavid,
Nathan MacKinnon and
Cale Makar, but two decades after playing at the World Juniors for Canada, he's still getting it done with the iconic Maple Leaf on his chest.
Ultimately, there's been no more consistent and better player on the international stage than No. 87, and while his career as Canadian captain will come to an end in the next few years, if he can play a key role in gold medalling at the 2026 Olympic Games for Canada, he'll go down as arguably the greatest player to ever don a Canadian jersey.
