Could the Penguins Survive Without Sid?

In the wake of Sidney Crosby’s injury at the Olympics, things are more than a bit unsettled. No one seems to know much about the nature and severity of his ailment, believed to involve his right leg. The best we can get is a vague “day-to-day” classification.

As we’ve seen with Justin Brazeau and, more recently, Evgeni Malkin, day-to-day can turn into a month-long absence in the blink of an eye.

I guess we’ll know more if Sid’s able to suit up for Canada’s semifinal class today with Finland.

All this got me to wondering.
