Done in Pittsburgh? Penguins issue disappointing statement on Crosby's birthday
Everyone is watching Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby as he turns 37 today.
Rumors surfaced yesterday that he might celebrate by signing a new contract with the Penguins.
Mark Madden from 105.9 The X and TribLive hinted that this big news could drop on Crosby's birthday.
However, this morning the Penguins only wished Crosby a happy birthday on social media, without any news of a contract.
This left many fans feeling let down and voicing their frustration. The post, which quickly spread on social media platforms including X, seemed to tease fans without delivering the news they hoped for.
Despite the rumors, it's hard to see Crosby leaving Pittsburgh.
The Penguins are focused on winning another Stanley Cup with him leading the team. While there's some anxiety around his contract, it's best for fans to be patient. Crosby, who is known for his superstitions, will likely make this decision on his own terms, and today might still bring some surprises.
