Sidney Crosby, the captain of Team Canada, is considering playing in the 4 Nations Face-Off after missing two games due to a left arm injury. This injury, which has previously caused him issues, was incurred during a game against the New Jersey Devils. The Penguins are granting Crosby the autonomy to decide on his participation, and he intends to skate before making his choice. Should he be unable to play, Mark Scheifele is on standby for a potential roster change. The tournament holds great significance for Crosby, who last represented Canada in 2017.
Crosby skated for three consecutive days before traveling to Montreal, trying to ramp himself back up while testing out the injury.
The Penguins will leave the decision up to Crosby whether he participates or not, and he will take as much time as he can to decide if he's ready.
