#to Sid re-signing a new contract with the Pens the second he's eligible

[icedbatik]

Why is Biznasty so obsessed with a Crosby trade?

Hi, anon!

I'm not sure. My best guesses are it has something to do with:

a) the drama/storyline of a guy who has spent his entire adult life saying he wants to be a Penguin for life (and having the top-of-the-league skill to make it happen) suddenly up and trading teams;

b) he and Sid are friends and Biz probably hates as much as anyone watching him carry the weight of a badly struggling team day in and day out, night in and night out, and getting little help;

c) maybe Biz ships Sid/Nate?

d) thinking Sid would be better off elsewhere but knowing him well enough to know he means it when he says he wants to be in Pittsburgh, and figuring the least painful move for him would be to Colorado, where at least he could continue to play alongside a close friend.

e) in connection with my first guess, he's in the business of making waves, of saying thing that catch people's eye, and there's no denying the idea of Sid leaving Pittsburgh catches people's attention and gets them talking.
