A teenager had a dream come true at an outdoor rink in Mont-Tremblant, Quebec last month.
Nineteen-year-old hockey player Guillaume Ouimet was skating in the ski resort town when none other than Pittsburgh Penguins superstar center Sidney Crosby came by.
"He asked me a question about the ice and if I was alone, and then I tell him I'm alone and I can see he just wants to skate and not be bothered by a lot of persons," Ouimet said, per Kalina Laframboise of CBC News.
Crosby then laced up his skates and joined Ouimet on the ice, and the pair partook in passing drills for about an hour.
"He's so good. It's not even comparable to what you see on TV," said Ouimet. "I was just so impressed."
After the skate, Crosby - who was vacationing in Quebec with the Penguins during their bye week - toured the nearby indoor arena, where Ouimet is the captain of the Mont-Tremblant Diables.
"It's how great of a human being he is - just really keeping both feet on the ground, not thinking he's better than anyone, very generous with his time," Ouimet concluded.
Ouimet shared a few photos of the experience on Instagram:
