Pens Inside the Scoop: Pittsburgh Penguins forward Sidney Crosby left last night’s game early. Coach Dan Muse:

“I still have to get more information. I have to talk to the medical staff more. The bodies are down, but I don’t have any more updates for you right now.”

Josh Yohe of the Athletic: Late in the first half Crosby headed to the dressing room and didn’t come out in the second. It seemed that he liked his right leg. It was his fifth game back since he sprained his MCL in his left knee during the Olympics.
