Sidney Crosby exits the Penguins' 4-3 shootout victory over the Senators with a lower-body injury. The captain leaves in the second period after a brief 38-second shift. This marks another setback for Crosby, who just returned from a previous lower-body injury sustained during the Olympics with Team Canada. He was already seen heading to the locker room after his final shift in the first period, following a collision that appeared to affect his left leg. The Penguins announce he will not return, and coach Dan Muse provides no update on Crosby's status. In the game, Crosby registers one shot on goal across nine shifts. The 38-year-old center missed 11 games earlier this season due to injury but returned on March 18, contributing with a goal and assist. He currently leads the Penguins with 28 goals and 64 points in 61 games.
