NHL.com: Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby had surgery yesterday on his wrist and will be out for at least six weeks. Penguins GM Ron Hextall.
“This is not a new injury for Sid. It is something that he has played through for years. After exhausting all minimally-invasive options and much discussion, it was decided that surgery was in his best interest.”
Rob Rossi: After talking with some people, they didn’t think that surgery was necessary for Crosby until recently, which was like a week ago.
