Shawn Michaels is quickly crossing over from wrestling legend to hockey lore.
The former WWE superstar - who will attend Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Final in Pittsburgh - opened Sportsnet's coverage of Game 4 in Tampa Bay with a personal message from his home, followed by a montage set to his old "Sexy Boy" intro music.
Michaels, of course, became linked to the Penguins by way of the red-hot line of Carl Hagelin, Nick Bonino, and Phil Kessel, dubbed 'HBK', synonymous with his Heartbreak Kid nickname.
