Pittsburgh Penguins center Sidney Crosby skated Monday for the first time since being sidelined with post-concussion symptoms, the team said.
Crosby, who has missed 29 games, skated for about 15 minutes in full gear on Monday morning, including stickhandling and shooting drills, the team said.
Crosby, who was unable to play the All-Star Game because of his symptoms, has been out since he was hit headfirst into the boards by Tampa Bay defenseman Victor Hedman in a Jan. 5 game. He also had absorbed a blindside hit to the head from then-Washington forward David Steckel during the Jan. 1 Winter Classic outdoors game.
Last weekend, Crosby's father and his agent refuted a report that the Penguins captain was considering retirement.
I hope he fucking retires. Fuck Him
I've been lost in endless seas
My heart died long ago
I curse my failures as I fall from you
maybe he will become the pens water boy since hes such a pussy
wahhhhhh i got a concussion wahhhhh
concussions are nothing to fuck with. They mess with you for a long time. You're not a pussy for being out with a concussion. Is Marc Savard a pussy too? I mean come on.
He's not going to retire, for the millionth time, no matter how many people wish it.
I know but i can wish.
Why do you want the best player in hockey to retire? That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Having him in the game makes it so much better. Whether he bitches and cries or not.
There's different grades of severity for concussions and their symptoms. you can't paint with a broad brush like that. Justin Morneau missed about 4 months last year with concussion issues. I highly doubt he's faking anything or being a baby.

Exactly. Just like Marc Savard missed a lot of time from the hit Matt Cooke gave him last March. He was out for most of the playoffs, played like 2 games, had his symptoms come back over the summer, then didn't play until like November if I recall correctly.
Winter Classics most watched was between Crosby and Ovenchicken, 2 of the NHL's most popular stars. Other then that no one else gave a shit about the other Classics lol. Those 2=money. Without them=boring
John Tavares is turning into an incredible hockey player. So glad he is on my team.
Seguin and Hall also have some serious skill, but one player you left out was Jordan Eberle. Kid is great. The Oilers are gonna have a good future with those 2 kids if they support them properly.

Everyone in the NHL will know who these guys are in time. In fact, you should know Stamkos by now...
