The Penguins confirmed that captain Sidney Crosby will not play tonight against the New York Rangers. The club has recalled forward Emil Bemstrom from Wilkes-Barre.
Crosby was on the ice and zipping around pretty well for a player who won’t be in the lineup.

Daily Faceoff’s Frank Seravalli reported Crosby is dealing with a left wrist injury and Team Canada is “cautiously optimistic” that Crosby will be able to play in their opening game at the 4 Nations Face-off in six days.
