Penguins place Sidney Crosby on injured reserve after missing Olympic final
Sidney Crosby, the Penguins' leading scorer with 59 points, will miss at least four weeks after a lower-body injury at the 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Olympics.
- On Wednesday, the Pittsburgh Penguins confirmed captain Sidney Crosby will miss a minimum of four weeks after a lower-body injury at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan.
- During Canada’s quarterfinal vs Czechia, Crosby was hurt late in the second period after tangling along the boards during a puck battle and did not return.
- The 38-year-old, a two-time Olympic gold medalist , finished the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan with six points in four games.
- The absence meant Canada played the semifinal without Crosby, who missed both the semifinal vs Finland and gold-medal game vs the United States after Hockey Canada ruled him out the next morning.
- Canada went on to lose the final 2-1 in overtime, and the Penguins said Crosby returned to Pittsburgh earlier this week for further evaluation.
