Avalanche fans thrown into chaos after eerie Sidney Crosby photo goes viral.
Antonio Losada from Athlon Sports writes that a viral post on X showing Crosby in a Maple Leafs jersey has reignited trade rumors surrounding the Penguins captain, sparking a wave of reactions from NHL fans across the internet.
The image, a clever jersey-swap edit, was shared by BarDown and quickly dominated hockey conversations during a quiet stretch of the offseason.
"While there is no official link between Crosby and the Leafs, the speculation stems from ongoing rumors that Crosby's time in Pittsburgh could be nearing its end, depending on what the Penguins captain decides to do with his final years of play." -Losada
At 37, Crosby is hearing up for his 21st NHL season, coming off a strong campaign with 33 goals and 91 points. As the Penguins face a potential rebuild, both analysts and fans are buzzing with speculation about what the final chapter of his career could hold.
Last September, the Penguins captain inked a two-year, $17.4 million extension that keeps him in Pittsburgh through the 2026-27 season.
The jersey-swap post sparked a wide range of reactions and opinions from fans across X.
«This is one of few reasons why people hate us Leaf fans lmao. Crosby in a Leafs jersey be fr 😂 would be going to Montreal or the Avs if he ever leaves the Pens,» a fan wrote.
«I'm a Leafs fan. I can't even get used to this. He's a Penguin for life,» one user posted.
«As a Leafs fan this makes me uncomfortable to see 😂 now I love Sid and I'd welcome him, but man this is an odd picture to see lol,» one Leafs fan wrote.
«Never say never. Sidney's on the back end of his career, and Wayne Gretzky was a St. Louis Blue at one point,» one account said.
We'll have to wait and see how it all unfolds!
