CROSBY OUT
Sid is suffering from a groin injury which had him leave the morning skate early and is keeping him out of the lineup tonight
"My groin is bothering me a bit," Crosby said. "I won't be playing tonight. It's something that's been bothering me for three or four days and I'm going to sit this one out."When it's getting worse each day, it's not a good sign. I've missed periods of time over the last few years with groin (injuries) and I kind of know when it's time to take a step back and make sure that I'm careful. I feel like I'm at that point."AHL CALL-UP / BOURQUE ON WAIVERS back to Capitals
"I have hurt my groin before where I’ve felt like it was going to be a couple weeks," he said. "I feel like this is going to be day-to-day if I handle it right and I heal the way that I hope to. That is basically it. You take it day-by-day and hope it feels better."
Letestu was recalled from the WB / S Baby Pens today; the Penguins placed Chris Bourque on waivers and was recently [re]claimed by the Washington Capitals (to play for the Hershey Bears)
