Penguins extend Sidney Crosby

The Pittsburgh Penguins have signed Sidney Crosby to a 2-year contract extension.

Late in the summer, there was some buzz that Crosby was unsure about re-signing in Pittsburgh while they appear to be entering at least a soft rebuild, but it appears wearing another jersey just isn’t a palatable option for the Pittsburgh icon.

In 1272 games with the Penguins, Crosby has 592 goals and 1,004 assists. Those 1,596 points place him 10th all-time in NHL ranks, with 9th place Joe Sakic an attainable target for the 2024-25 season.
