PITTSBURGH - His first NHL goal didn't leave him in awe. Neither did winning his first scoring title or MVP award, even if The Kid accomplished all of this while still a teenager.

So being the youngest team captain in Stanley Cup finals history isn't about to get Sidney Crosby all giggly and gushy.

It's taken him only three seasons to transform the Penguins from the NHL's second-worst team into one of its best, so Crosby is understandably calm and confident as Pittsburgh begins preparing for the Cup finals against Detroit that begin Saturday night.
