If it were going to be good news, I can’t help but think they’d just let it wait until training camp and show him on the ice. Also seems kind of odd to hold a press conference for Crosby to say “I’m fine.”

That said, how bad was this concussion? I know everybody is different, but it seems odd that (iirc) his first concussion would keep him out this long.
