Sidney Crosby practiced with the Pittsburgh Penguins in full practice for the first time since December. Crosby hopes to keep the momentum going by being able to keep practicing. Coach Dan Bylsma understands Crosby's injury and concerns, but be a typical coach, wants to see Crosby back in full swing as soon as possible. Crosby does not have a timeline for himself because he does not want to get his hopes that he can return sooner or later than predicted. There is growing optimism that Crosby will be back before the playoffs, but it is still uncertain.
I personally see Crosby's injury as life-threatening. I do not think many people realize how little is known about concussions and how unpredictable they can truly be. I believe Crosby is a professional athlete that would not baby a situation like this because hockey is his job, his life, and his passion.
