It was a matte style, which just so happens to also coincides with what campers earlier this year at the <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CanadianPens\/status\/1965878243128664495\" rel=\"nofollow\">Mario Lemieux fantasy camp<\/a> were adorned in, also featuring the 1990s\/2000\u2019s throwback gradient RoboPenguin jersey.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">The Pens are still yet to announce their expected <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pensburgh.com\/2025\/2\/24\/24372130\/what-will-the-penguins-next-alternate-jersey-be\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">new alternate jersey for this season<\/a>, Crosby\u2019s attire at the league\u2019s media showcase is a clear signal of what could be ahead.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">There\u2019s been no official word if the Pens are slightly altering their helmet or going to incorporate it with a new alternate jersey, but showing up in a different look at a high-profile event has started the speculation, and in some cases wish fulfillment, that what is old could be new again with the return of the RoboPenguin.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">While on the subject of whimsy, did the Penguins also tease the return of Fleury Flakes?!?!<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">What does it all mean?! Probably that we need some real hockey to talk about sooner than later, which there\u2019s good news on the horizon with the Pens\u2019 prospects heading up to Buffalo for games starting tomorrow and then the full return of training camp soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Many on social media noticed something different about Sidney Crosby\u2019s helmet from earlier this week when the Penguin&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":218522,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[42],"tags":[834,293,62,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-218521","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nhl","8":"tag-general","9":"tag-nhl","10":"tag-sports","11":"tag-united-states","12":"tag-unitedstates","13":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115186458103432273","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/218521","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=218521"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/218521\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/218522"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=218521"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=218521"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=218521"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
