The Penguins webpage reports that he sat out as a precaution because of a sore groin and is expected to be in the lineup on Friday when the Pens travel to Toronto for another exhibition game agains the Maple Leafs. Crosby's absence didn't appear to affect the team as they pulled out a win over the Leafs 3-2.

“Sergei will continue to be evaluated as our team medical personnel consider several treatment options,” Shero said. “In the meantime, we will look for our other defensemen to step up and fill the void created by his absence.”
