The name Sidney Crosby was heavily circulating this weekend, live from Los Angeles during the 2025 NHL Draft.

I never really bought into it, but now the excellent Maxime Truman has added fuel to the fire.

“I’m hearing that Crosby is still not certain he wants to be traded, but if it does happen, it could still take a few days or weeks. There’s no rush.

The Colorado Avalanche is said to be the team with the best chance of acquiring Crosby, I’m told.”

He also believes a trade involving Sidney Crosby isn’t happening anytime soon, but the end of his message is particularly interesting.

The team with the best chance of acquiring Sidney Crosby is the Colorado Avalanche

It lines up with rumors that have been floating around for quite some time.

It truly seems to be between the Montreal Canadiens, the Toronto Maple Leafs, and the Colorado Avalanche-where Crosby would reunite with a certain Nathan MacKinnon.

At 37 years old, Sidney Crosby tallied 91 points in 80 games this season, including 33 goals. He recorded 94 and 93 points in the two previous seasons as well-so yes, he’s still an extremely dominant player.

With the Pittsburgh Penguins heading toward a lengthy rebuild, it’ll be up to him to make a big decision about his future.

Is he ready to say goodbye to the playoffs for the rest of his career?
