The guys, together with Pete Jensen and Chris Meaney, start with the race for the Art Ross Trophy, led by Connor McDavid, Nathan MacKinnon and Nikita Kucherov, and debate what Alex Ovechkin, Sidney Crosby, Mitch Marner, Auston Matthews, the Canadiens' offense and other players and teams have in store for the upcoming season. Other topics include which team has the best goalie tandem for fantasy purposes, Macklin Celebrini vs. Connor Bedard, which new player(s) could reach 100 points for the first time, under-the-radar goalies who can reach 30 wins and which defensemen could contend with Cale Makar for the most points at the position.

Dejan Kovacevic's Monday-Friday morning commentary on the Pittsburgh Penguins

Le camp d'orientation des membres des équipes canadiennes (hommes, femmes, parahockey) en vue des Jeux olympiques de Milan s'est poursuivi, jeudi, à Calgary. Pour l’entraîneur Jon Cooper, les joueurs du Canada vont se souvenir de la présence de Brad Marchand dans le vestiaire. Parlant du principal intéressé, il est fébrile à l'idée de participer à ses premiers Jeux olympiques à 37 ans. On évoque les jeunes talents comme Connor Bedard et Macklin Celebrini. Celebrini avait 3 ans quand Sidney Crosby a inscrit le but vainqueur aux JO de Vancouver, en 2010. Écoutez Jean-François Chaumont, de LNH.com, présent à Calgary, résumer la journée au micro de Louis Jean, aux Amateurs de sports. Les Canadiens de Montréal sont classés comme la cinquième meilleure banque d’espoirs de la LNH, selon The Athletic. Le tricolore est notamment devancé à ce chapitre par les Sharks, les Blackhawks, le Mammoth, les Ducks. Le journaliste de TVA Sports et le journaliste à La Presse, Alexandre Pratt, débattent notamment sur l’ordre des meilleurs espoirs classés. Les cinq premiers Slafkovsky, Demidov, Hutson, Reinbacher et Bolduc : qu’en pensent-ils? Vous faites attention à ce que vous mangez? Les équipes professionnelles de sport accordent beaucoup d'importance à la nutrition. Et c'est Carl Bombardier qui s'acquitte de cette tâche pour le Mammoth de l'Utah de la Ligue nationale de hockey. Le Québécois occupe le rôle de directeur haute performance et nutrition sport chez la formation basée à Salt Lake City. Celui qui a également travaillé pour plusieurs équipes de la NFL explique qu’il gère la logistique alimentaire, conçoit les menus, engage les chefs et il accompagne l’équipe lors des déplacements, avec un budget annuel avoisinant un demi-million de dollars pour la nourriture. La boxeuse québécoise Kim Clavel a rejoint le groupe américain MVP Promotions de Jake Paul il y a quelques jours. Et jeudi, on a su qu'elle allait disputer un combat de championnat du monde le 27 septembre au Québec, à l'Espace St-Denis. Dans les studios des Amateurs de Sports, Kim Clavel, souligne l’importance de la visibilité offerte par MVP pour la boxe féminine, l’évolution du sport, et cite Victoria Mboko comme source d’inspiration.Voir https://www.cogecomedia.com/vie-privee pour notre politique de vie privée

The Sidney Crosby advantage for Team Canada at the Olympics, Olympic memories, and REDBLACKS Scorigami

L'entraîneur Jim Montgomery a commencé la saison 2024-2025 avec les Bruins de Boston dans la foulée de son titre d'entraîneur-chef par excellence. Il a néanmoins été congédié en cours de saison... pour se retrouver à la barre des Blues de St. Louis quelques jours plus tard. Presqu’un an plus tard, le Montréalais se confie au micro de Louis Jean, aux Amateurs de sports. Il aborde la pression d’être un entraîneur de la LNH. Montgomery commente également la plus récente transaction entre les Canadiens et les Blues. Il parle notamment du jeu physique de Zachary Bolduc et louange l’arrivée de Logan Mailloux au sein de sa brigade défensive. Le camp d’orientation pour les équipes masculine, féminine et de para hockey du Canada a lieu à Calgary. Et les objectifs sont clairs en vue des prochains Jeux olympiques : la médaille d’or! Dans le cas du hockey masculin, 41 joueurs ont été invités, dont Samuel Montembeault, Nick Suzuki et Noah Dobson. Le journaliste du LNH.com, Jean-François Chaumont, est allé à la rencontre de ces trois joueurs du tricolore. Le capitaine du bleu-blanc-rouge a affirmé qu’il serait même prêt à jouer à l’aile. Sidney Crosby a quant lui été questionné sur la place possible de Macklin Celebrini au sein de l’alignement, tandis que Connor McDavid s’est déjà fait poser la question qui tue : as-tu déjà eu des discussions sur une prolongation de contrat avec les Oilers? Le Montréalais Neil Glasberg est le fondateur, président et chef de la direction de l'agence PBI Sports & Entertainment. Et il est notamment agent... d'entraîneurs. Celui qui a comme principaux clients Mike Sullivan des Rangers, Ryan Warsofsky des Sharks et Lane Lambert du Kraken, explique l’importance du soutien psychologique pour les entraîneurs. Un autre dossier est abordé : qu'est-ce qui explique la vague d'entraîneurs qui quittent vers la KHL? Il n’y a qu’à penser aux Bob Hartley, Guy Boucher, Benoît Groulx, Louis Robitaille, et maintenant Gérard Gallant. Selon Glasberg, «Les équipes de la KHL sont très agressives envers les entraîneurs de la LNH». Prendre une bière - ou deux - après une participation à un sport - partie de golf, tennis, match de hockey - est de moins en moins courant. On note une baisse marquée de la consommation de bière après le sport, notamment dans les ligues de hockey, depuis la décennie 2010-2020 et surtout depuis la fin de la pandémie. Ce changement s’explique par la valorisation de l’image disciplinée de l’athlète, la diminution de 35 à 40 % des bars depuis sept à huit ans, et la réglementation de la tolérance zéro pour les moins de 22 ans depuis 2012, modifiant les habitudes sociales et de récupération des sportifs.

Happy 38th Birthday to Sidney Crosby 08/07/25There are two things about Sidney Crosby's birthday which every Penguins fan knows by heart. For one, the date of our Captain's arrival on Earth is emblazoned on Crosby's back-and-shoulders, any time he skates for the Pittsburgh Penguins: “8/7.” Secondly, Sid's birthday means that training camp is just around the corner, signaling an encouraging “midpoint” in an otherwise mundane summer offseason.Special thanks to Espresso A Mano, Pittsburgh's finest coffee roasters and cafe, for partnering with Fly Penguins Fly podcast.

Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey joins host Adam Bittner to react to the hot topics in Pittsburgh sports this week. Should Steelers GM Omar Khan and coach Mike Tomlin make an exception to their rule of not negotiating contracts with players during training camp and into the season when it comes to T.J. Watt? Or should they stick to their guns as he reportedly seeks a contract that would take him to his age 36 season? Is there still time to trade him? And would that defeat the purpose of signing veterans like Aaron Rodgers and trading for names like DK Metcalf, Jalen Ramsey and Jonnu Smith? And are there any lessons we can learn from the Le'Veon Bell contract holdout close to a decade ago? Our duo tackles those questions, then talks some hockey. What should we make of Penguins GM Kyle Dubas' moves so far this NHL offseason? Does the deal for goalie Arturs Silovs signal big moves coming with Tristan Jarry and/or Erik Karlsson? Should the team tank for a chance to draft Gavin McKenna? Or give Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin and Kris Letang a chance for one more Stanley Cup run together? And what should we make of reports that Mario Lemieux and Ron Burkle are looking to re-assume ownership of the club? Our duo tackles those questions and more. Then in the third segment, airing on the PG's Pirates YouTube channel, the guys tackle the hot topics surrounding the club this week. Should GM Ben Cherington be allowed to trade big names like Mitch Keller, Bryan Reynolds and Ke'Bryan Hayes while his future is in question? Or should Bob Nutting limit his options for deals to players on expiring contracts like Tommy Pham, Andrew Heaney and Isiah Kiner-Falefa? What should we make of Reynolds' continued struggles? Was Seth Hernandez a good top pick in the MLB draft? Where does Oneil Cruz go from here after his MLB Home Run Derby performance? And how seriously should we take Konnor Griffin as a prospect?

Joe's quarter century team list is the greatest comeback since 2000. Pitt women's basketball had a 32-point comeback, the largest in NCAA history, and didn't make the list! Pitt didn't allow a point in the third quarter! He doesn't have Sidney Crosby's return from the concussions.

The State of the Penguins. Chris' big question is – how long will the bad times last? The Penguins are the gold-standard franchise in town in the 21st century, with 3 Stanley Cup wins, including the back-to-back run just under a decade ago. For nearly 2 full decades, the Penguins were, at worst, in the mix of things. Chris called the Penguins a ‘blue blood' of the league for the better part of 20 years. Chris described the decent as steady, but silent, including the shakeup in ownership. Chris thinks the initial part of the Kyle Dubas tenure has been disappointing, but he likes the idea of a rebuild and a team loaded with picks. And as long as they have Sidney Crosby, it could expedite that process. What happens if they don't land Gavin McKenna?

On this episode of The Sick Podcast, Eric Engels joins Tony Marinaro to discuss the likelihood of ever seeing Sidney Crosby traded, why Montreal would be the ideal trading partner with the Pittsburgh Penguins in that scenario, Ivan Demidov's impressive offseason, figuring out who the available centers on the trade market might be, Mike Matheson's future in Montreal and much more!

Ailish Forfar and Justin Cuthbert kick off Hour 2 with Jon Morosi of MLB Network ahead of the 2025 MLB All-Star Game (1:05).

They get into the Jays; future outlook, which prospects they might move, the notable names to keep an eye on, the competition in the AL East, and much more. Then, to discuss his latest offseason trade board for Sportsnet.ca, Nick Kypreos joins the show (29:15). He shares whether Morgan Rielly could be moved, if there is a chance that Sidney Crosby does not stay in Pittsburgh, what to make of the Sabres and Bowen Byram agreeing to a 2-year extension, the pressure facing the L.A. Kings to win now, the Leafs' trade chips, and much more.The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

The top five moments of the last quarter century. Joe said some hockey fans in Pittsburgh think the Russell Martin home run in the Wild Card Game is too high on the list and hockey moments should be higher than it. Multiple reporters from Canada and nationally came to Pittsburgh to see Sidney Crosby against the Islanders in his return after his concussion.

We hear from Pirates fans who loved the Wild Card Game and compared it to other big moments they've seen. Rich in Forest Hills saw Mario Lemieux in 1987 for Team Canada. Greg in Youngstown mentions when the Penguins won the draft lottery with Sidney Crosby.
