Penguins have signed Sidney Crosby sometimes since turning professional in 2005.
Now, you have returned the favor.
Crosby and some teammates sent handwritten notes to selected season ticket holders who have renewed their plans.
The letters went to 66, a number that presumably was not chosen at random, such fans.
One of Crosby’s notes reads as follows:
Chuck – The Pittsburgh Penguins thank you for renewing your season tickets. Especially during these difficult times, we as players appreciate your support. Thank you!”
The letters are the penguins’ last token of appreciation to their season ticket holders. Players and coaches called more than 500 of them and sponsors in April to ask about their well-being during the coronavirus pandemic.
“The best thing is that our players recognize the importance of our season ticket holders to our success as an organization.” Chad Slencak, the Penguins’ vice president of ticket sales said in a statement issued by the team.
“They have always been a large part of our reach, but their efforts have been especially significant in the past four months. We talked about it together and we thought that some handwritten notes would go a long way in showing these fans how much we appreciate their support. ”
