There still will be some give-and-take, some offers and counter-proposals -- maybe even a few snags -- before an agreement is reached, but agent Pat Brisson likes the way Sidney Crosby's contract negotiations have moved along so far.

There should be no surprises here - he's the kind of kid who will want to play for 1 team his whole career, and they know what they have on their hands with him - expecting a signing soon is no big story

Indeed, Sid will be a Penguin the rest of his life, thank god for that.

While everyone would love to have Sid on their team, he needs to stay with the Pens. The best thing for the NHL is to have a guy that everyone knows, who is a star, who does no wrong and can be the catalyst for improving other NHL clubs in terms of player personnel. That person is Crosby.

Money will decide where Crosby plays long term. No one should be surprised by this. That's what everyone's after in pro sports these days. If he doesn't get it in Pittsburgh, there are 28 other teams in the NHL who'd be happy to hand him the keys to their vaults and their cities in a heartbeat........except in Buffalo, of course! They'd want him for cheap!

Who is this "Internet Loser" freak? Does he ever have anything intelligent to say or is he verbally challenged?
