Crosby to miss third straight game; no timetable for return

"I've been doing light exertion stuff and seeing how that goes," Crosby said following the team skate. "It's that whole (recovery) routine again, but hopefully not as long. When I wasn't doing something for six, seven months that process was a little longer. Hopefully, that's not the case here."

He added that "frustrating" doesn't even begin to explain how he feels.

I really, really hope he doesn't take the Eric Lindros path.

I would feel absolutely robbed.

Yeah this is tough to see. Just look at Marc Savard. I hope we don`t remember him as a poster boy for mental safety.

Pitkanen, Skinner, Giroux all out with concussions now too.

Are we approaching an epidemic?
