Pittsburgh Penguins center Sidney Crosby did not participate in the team’s practice at UPMC Lemieux Sports Complex Wednesday and is being evaluated for an unspecified upper-body injury, coach Mike Sullivan said.
He added that, “I don’t have any more specifics.”
A teammate, meanwhile, offered a fairly upbeat prognosis for Crosby.
“I just think it was a maintenance day for him,” the teammate said. “Obviously, I don’t know. I didn’t really talk to him all that much.”
Crosby missed roughly half of the third period in the Penguins’ 3-2 shootout loss to New Jersey at PPG Paints Arena Tuesday evening after being involved in a multi-player collision.
