Crosby's Contract Proves Sid's Unselfishness

The FAN Morning Show

The FAN Morning Show continues into its final hour of the day looking back with yesterday’s news that Sidney Crosby is re-upping in Pittsburgh. Ben Ennis and Brent Gunning discuss his decision to take a lower cap hit than his worth and if that puts pressure on GM Kyle Dubas to get the Penguins back into the playoffs. The hosts head to Pittsburgh and are joined by two-time Stanley Cup champion, now Penguins radio analyst, Phil Bourque. Phil fills the morning duo in on what the tone was like in the city around Sid’s pending future, what the sense is now that he’s signed, and what it means for the team as they hope to compete for a Cup again. Later on, B&B turn their attention back to the NFL and welcome on NFL Network’s Jeffri Chadiha to help wrap up Week 2 (27:36). The NFL.com writer weighs in on another collapse by Nick Sirianni and the Eagles on Monday night, Kirk Cousins getting his first Falcons victory, the benching of Bryce Young, and if the Chargers can challenge the Chiefs in their division.
