Why are people still talking about Sidney Crosby being a whiner, when all his whining happened1-2 years ago?

It's mega pissing me off, he's a decent player who's accomplished a lot in the past 5 years. Sure he shouldn't be shoved down our throats as usual but the kid still deserves some praise. And no, I don't hate Ovechkin and LOVE Sid. Actually, I love Malkin!
