For the third time in his career, Sidney Crosby brought the Stanley Cup to his home province of Nova Scotia, and the Pittsburgh Penguins captain made sure the entire community was involved in the celebration.
First, Crosby visited a veteran's retirement home:

Crosby, who celebrates his 30th birthday Monday, will also parade the Cup through Rimouski, Quebec, where he played his junior hockey for two seasons.
