According to Rob Rossi of The Athletic, Sidney Crosby is ready to extend his contract with the Pittsburgh Penguins, reaffirming his commitment to the team amid speculation about his departure.
Turning 37 next month, Crosby intends to remain a Penguin for life, despite the team not reaching the Stanley Cup Final since 2018 and missing the playoffs in the last two seasons.
Since his NHL debut in 2007, Crosby has been a consistently affordable asset for the Penguins, contributing to three Stanley Cup championships and nearing 1600 career points.
Once the contract is signed, rumors of his departure should finally dissipate, confirming his steadfast attachment to the team since joining in 2005.
