Longtime Pittsburgh sports broadcaster Stan Savran has passed away at the age of 76 after being diagnosed with lung cancer last year.

He later served as a Pittsburgh Penguins analyst on AT&T Sports Network and hosted pre- and post-game shows for the Penguins and Pirates on ATTSN. His versatility and dedication earned him a place in the Western Pennsylvania Sports Hall of Fame. Steelers President Art Rooney II called him a "legendary person" and "media icon."
