Will 2026 be Penguins captain Sidney Crosby's FINAL TIME at the Olympics?

Sidney Crosby will represent Team Canada on the world's stage once again in 2026, but is this it for Captain Canada? Patrick and Hunter begin the show talking about the Team Canada Olympic Orientation Camp list, which obviously includes Penguins' Captain Sidney Crosby, but is this it for the captain on the biggest stage? They also talk about how this is a period in his career where it's no longer about the accolades and about leaving the game better than when he entered it. Then, the Toronto Maple Leafs settled their arbitration with forward Nick Robertson, but could he still be a trade target for the Penguins? They discuss the pros and cons of trying to acquire the young forward. Finally, they give you a recap of the 2025 World Junior Summer Showcase and how the Penguins' prospects performed. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!GametimeToday's episode is brought to you by Gametime.

Celebrating 20 YEARS of Penguins captain Sidney Crosby!

Twenty years ago on this date, the Penguins' fortunes changed forever when they drafted Sidney Patrick Crosby. Patrick and Hunter begin the show looking back on the fateful day that was July 30, 2005, when the Penguins selected Sidney Crosby with the first overall pick in the 2005 NHL Entry Draft and changed their fortune for the better. They look back at all his achievements, what he's done for the sport, the franchise, and so much more. Then, Harrison Brunicke is expected to get top-pairing minutes with Team Canada during the World Junior Summer Showcase, a big show of faith in the Penguins' young defensive prospect. They discuss expectations for Brunicke, Villie Koviunen, Rutger McGroarty, and the rest of the Penguins' young guns as the season inches closer. Finally, a youth hockey parent is facing charges after allegedly assaulting a teenage referee in Pittsburgh. Patrick gives an impassioned plea to the Pittsburgh youth hockey community to tone it down or risk hurting the growth of the game. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!GametimeToday's episode is brought to you by Gametime.
