Crosby going to kill penalties too
Sidney Crosby - C - Pittsburgh Penguins
Jan. 19, 2013 - 12:55 PM ET

In addition to playing a regular shift, playing the entire power play and double shifting from time to time, the Penguins intend to use Sidney Crosby on the penalty kill as well.

"It will be based on how many penalty kills we have in the game, but [Crosby] is definitely in the mix of our top six [forward] penalty-killers," coach Dan Bylsma said. If your pool counts short-handed goals, Crosby just became even more valuable.
