Crosby spends 30th birthday with Stanley Cup in Halifax, Rimouski

Sidney Crosby spent his 30th birthday celebrating the Pittsburgh Penguins' latest Stanley Cup win, kicking things off by serving as grand marshal of the Halifax-Dartmouth Natal Day Parade.

"It's special," Crosby said prior to the parade, per Dan Rosen of NHL.com. "Any time you can bring (the Cup) home is special, but back to back, it's so difficult to do. And to be able to share that with everyone is unique. I just try to enjoy it as best as I can."

The truck in which Crosby rode was followed by a float carrying the Conn Smythe Trophy, the Rocket Richard Trophy, the Prince of Wales Trophy, and the 2016 World Cup of Hockey championship trophy, all of which he won over the past calendar year.

Crosby, of course, won both the Cup and the Conn Smythe last year as well, and doesn't appear to get tired of bringing his hardware home.

"You work hard to win it so you want to share with everybody as much as you can," he added.

Crosby grew up in Cole Harbour, Nova Scotia, and played junior hockey for the QMJHL's Rimouski Oceanic. A visit to the latter is where he's headed Monday afternoon.

"It was kind of a last-minute thing," he said. "My assistant coach from Rimouski was in town and he said that they had some time if we could make it work. They found a way to make it happen. It'll be cool to bring it back there. That's a place that I have a lot of great memories and I am sure people will be pretty happy to see it."

Crosby won a QMJHL championship with Rimouski in 2005, and will be bringing the Cup to the small Quebec city for the first time.
