Penguins coach Dan Muse was just like ever other hockey fan watching a limping Sidney Crosby exit Canada’s game against Czechia in the Olympic quarterfinals on Wednesday.
Crosby was checked by Czechia defenseman Radko Gudas along the boards in the second period, and in the replay video Crosby’s right leg appeared to buckle during the hit. The Penguins superstar then gingerly skated to the bench before heading into the locker room for further evaluation. He didn’t return for the rest of the game, but Canada was able to pull off the 4-3 victory against Czechia thanks to Mitch Marner’s overtime winner.
