The diagnosis of Dr. Robert S. Bray, a neurological spine specialist based in Los Angeles, is that Sidney Crosby had suffered a neck injury in addition to a concussion. Dr. Bray reports that the neck injury is fully healed. Those findings will be evaluated by independent specialists over the next few days. The most important goal all along has been Sidney's return to full health, and we are encouraged that progress continues to be made.?
More news on the severity of his injury but no hint on when he'll be making his return. Hopefully, we find out Sid is ready to go after visiting specialists.

#Pens coach Bylsma: Letang's focus will be on the game and not something that happened in the past -Sam
Letang played a good game yesterday and likely will see top-four minutes again tonight. Expect the team to try to downplay the Max Pacioretty hit of two months ago but for the game to get a bit chippy.
