HALIFAX, Nova Scotia -- As Sidney Crosby prepares to carry the Stanley Cup through his Nova Scotia hometown, he said the championship tour is in many ways sweeter the second time around.The Pittsburgh Penguins captain is in Halifax, Nova Scotia, this week overseeing his annual hockey camp and will bring the Cup to the city for a parade on Saturday, ending at the same rink where he honed his skills as a boy.During a break Wednesday from working with excited kids at the Cole Harbour rink, Crosby reflected on a season that had its ups and downs -- and a championship ring that was all the brighter as a result.This time I appreciate it a little bit more, Crosby said. Ill make sure I spend every second I possibly can with it (the Stanley Cup).After the previous 2009 victory tour through this hockey-crazy suburb, Crosby said he naively imagined winning seasons might be an annual affair.Not so much.He struggled through a concussion, time away from the game, and the Penguins endured a seven-year hiatus from hoisting hockeys greatest prize, until they raised it for the fourth time in franchise history on June 12 after beating the San Jose Sharks 3-1 in Game 6.As team captain, Crosby is permitted to have the trophy an extra day, meaning it will have a proud place at his home on the outskirts of the city. He said he intends to have friends over for a look, including several whose careers are over and may never have another opportunity to be so near it.The best part is being able to share it with people, he said.The Penguins evolved into a different team after a midseason coaching change, picking up speed, scoring more and improving puck possession when Mike Sullivan replaced Mike Johnston in mid-December.Crosby called it the two-team season during Wednesdays news conference.The captains performance also picked up under Sullivan, along with forward Phil Kessel, who became a key postseason force on the third offensive line. The Penguins went 33-16-5 after Sullivan took over.Everybody was talking about ... do we need to change this, do we need to change that? Theres always those questions, and winning kind of answers all of those, said Crosby, when asked about the season.The Conn Smythe winner was out on the ice most afternoons this week, joking with the young players and offering shooting tips.Crosbys hockey camp is in its second year and is drawing children from Australia, the United Kingdom, the United States and northern Europe, say organizers. Theres a lottery for the 160 girls and boys allowed in, drawn from 5,000 applicants.Parents attending say many of the children, aged 8 to 12, have a Crosby story to tell from their workouts.For the NHL star, its all part of unwinding.You see how excited the kids are. ... There are kids from all over here. Thats neat, he said.Crosby said hes starting back on training after a short break, and is already reflecting on his role as a captain of Team Canada in this falls World Cup in Toronto.The tournament will leave little room for error and winning will depend on which squad adapts the most quickly, he said.The team is similar to the Team Canada that won gold at the 2014 Olympics in Sochi, Russia.The biggest thing in Russia is we got better as the tournament went along. A short-term event like that, its very important. Well have to see. Well have to find our identity pretty quickly, he said.Its one-game scenarios so you need to execute pretty well.Meanwhile, the veteran is soaking up his hometown celebration, conscious this time around that in professional sports, you dont know what the future holds.Its a tough road ... You understand its tough to get there, and you take in as much as you can when you do win it, he said. Ian Happ Jersey .
