Crosbitch 

Slang term used for hockey player Sidney Crosby of the Pittsburgh Penguins. A player who undoubtedly is among the top 10 most talented players in the NHL but is not the best as many claim. This is due to the fact that he is not a complete player. He scores and creates goals for others but chooses when and if he wants to play hard, whines to the refs and dives constantly.He tries to act tough because he has a C sewn on his jersey but fails miserably. Also his attempts to grow playoff beards are amongst if not the most pathetic in NHL history further adding to the speculation that he may in fact be a she.
