NHL: Penguins captain Crosby misses 3rd straight game

Associated Press

DALLAS — Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby missed his third straight game today because of a groin injury.

Crosby, who began the day third in the NHL scoring race with 79 points, was injured a week earlier in a game against the Washington Capitals.

Crosby skated Sunday morning before the Penguins faced the Dallas Stars and said he felt better, but not well enough to play in a game.
