These things are noteworthy but not exactly stuff that automatically gets him in the hall of fame. There are lots of players that won a cup, a gold medal, and even a scoring championship. If you do it for many years you are a legend. Until then you have potential. If Sid can't fully recover from the concussion then it will be a shame but his lifetime achievement list will end up as slightly above average. Look at "Alex Ov-choke-kin": great skill but chokes in the big games. If he can't get past that, he'll be just a quality player as opposed to a super-star.
I'm impressed with what he's done so far but I'm not ready to bow down and worship at the altar of Crosby just yet.
