From Dmitry Chesnokov at Yahoo!‘s Puck Daddy:
What can you say about Sidney Crosby who still cannot recover from the concussion? He may miss even this season.
“God willing it won’t be true. Right now Crosby is one of the best hockey players in the world. If he leaves, it will be a huge loss for people and for the sport in general. I will be very upset.”
But it was former Washington Capitals forward David Steckel who gave him the concussion. You are responsible for his action as his captain.
“It was an unintentional collision. One hundred percent! A game play. Moreover, the next game a Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman had a rough play against Crosby behind the net. You can’t get away from episodes like this in hockey.”

Nope, pretty sure Ovie had it right the first time.

Ovie got it right and with the right amount of respect. Well done!

Sorry to say, but right now, Crosby isn’t playing any hockey.
He was one of the best in the world when he was playing.
