From a translation of a fench article... rds.ca

In a nutshell.

Crosby was told to stop all activity. His season being over, basically just needs to be announced...

It's a Canadian media article. Until the Pens announce something, I believe nothing.

I can't believe how serious this is getting, not that a concussion isn't serious but damn these rumors sound awful.

I'm sorry to hear this. In the first few years I was critical of Crosby for some of his "antic's" I would chalk them up to immaturity at the time.

I give credit where credit is due and he has matured a lot in the last year or so and is a great player that I wish we had on our team.

I hope he recovers well and with any luck this was just a bump in the road and he doesn't end up like Lindro's or Lafonataine.

This is tough news for Crosby and Pens fans (if true which I believe it is), but hopefully he'll be back and rarin' to go next season. Get well soon Sid.

bad for the league. good for the players health. what I mean by that is that the NHL has to surely take notice that their #1 money maker is missing the season and playoffs. They HAVE to act on headshots. the players need to start it first but the NHL better get real serious on this

I think it speaks volumes to how well he was playing when he's still the leading scorer on the Penguins as of today...

The French article on RDS.ca doesn't say that his season is over, per se.

It says that that scenario is becoming more and more likely. Either way it's not good.

I hope he doesn't become the next Lindros (minus the crying to his daddy and constantly skating with his head down).

Never like crosby since he came in and even when he scored the game winner in the gold medal game. Worst scenario!

But its sad to see him go down this year. He was lighting it up and playing probably the best hockey i've ever see anyopne play in a long time

according to CSN Philly writer Sarah Baicker:

sbaicker So according to a source, the earliest possible return for Sidney Crosby is the second round of the playoffs.

dont have a link or anything, kind of odd that she has something, anybody else have something?

I have thought that he will be out till after the Bog or GM meeting about hits to the head. I think he probably could come back at anytime, but is waiting till after those meeting to get stricter rules in place for shots to the head, regardless of accidental or not. Since he is the biggest name right now with a concussion, his star staus should fuel the debate to crack down on head shots at the meeting.

Then after that will resume skating and be back playing at the end of March or very early April.
