VIDEO: Sidney Crosby had a pretty triumphant return to the NHL

A. Isaac Senior Editor

After 10 months away from the game, you’d think Sidney Crosby would need time to shake off some rust before he got going. Perhaps a few periods, maybe even a whole game. But only a few shifts? Damn, no wonder he’s one of the best players in the world.

Crosby scored 5:24 into the first period and added another one in the third period to cap off a four point night.

We’ll hold off on giving him the Hart Trophy until he plays slightly better competition because, you know, it’s the Islanders and all. Nonetheless, an extremely impressive performance, especially given the amount of pressure that was on him.

Next up on Crosby’s to-do list…shaving that hideous mustache as I’m pretty sure it has little or nothing to do with Movember.

What'd you think of this?
