The Pittsburgh Penguins and their captain Sidney Crosby have been connected for decades. As the 2024-25 season approaches, Crosby enters the final year of his contract. Earlier this month, sources confirmed that both parties were discussing a contract extension, with the Penguins prioritizing these talks.
However, a recent report has indicated that the contract talks have stalled since they began, sparking concern among fans.
Pittsburgh sports writer Dan Kingerski released a report today that casts skepticism on Sidney Crosby's future with the Penguins. According to his sources, contract discussions with Crosby have stalled, contrary to expectations.
This has ignited worrying conversations about Sidney Crosby's future. Coincidentally, around this time last year, Tampa Bay faced similar discussions about their captain, Steven Stamkos. A year later, Stamkos has secured a long-term contract with the Nashville Predators.
Now, the Penguins and Sidney Crosby face a similar threat in Pittsburgh. While the Steven Stamkos situation is a rare exception in the way these scenarios typically unfold with veteran stars, it does raise the possibility that Sidney Crosby could seek a new team if contract negotiations don't progress.
