On Sidney Crosby’s Return to the NHL…

The NHL season opens next week and it appears that the face of the league, Sidney Crosby, may be ready to return following damn-near a year of time on the shelf due to post-concussion issues. From ESPN, “Sidney Crosby still hasn’t been cleared for contact in practice but he might join the Pittsburgh Penguins for their trip to Western Canada to open the regular season next week.” Personally, I hope the man returns to action sooner than later as he’s one of the most exciting stars in the game today (also, the NHL has a tremendous opportunity to expand its popularity this fall/winter as the NBA lockout continues on, and his return would grant the sport some welcomed excitement).

Simply put: Give’r, Sid. Give’r.
