Kopitar gets jersey from Crosby after last regular season matchup

After Sunday’s 3-2 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins, Anze Kopitar had a special visitor in the locker room at PPG Paints Arena.

The Los Angeles Kings captain got a visit from Penguins captain Sidney Crosby, after the final regular season matchup between the two NHL legends.

Crosby greeted Kopitar and then two exchanged some words. Crosby then gave him a jersey.

Kopitar, who announced in September that he will retire at the end of the season, scored in the win.

The two players were drafted together in 2005, Crosby as the No. 1 overall pick for the Penguins and Kopitar going 11th overall to the Kings.

Since then, Kopitar has played all 20 seasons of his career in Los Angeles. He won the Stanley Cup in 2012 and then again in 2014 and has served as the Kings captain since 2016.

Crosby and Kopitar are both featured in Episode 3 of the latest season of the “FACEOFF: Inside the NHL” docuseries, which highlights both players’ push towards one last Stanley Cup.
