Crosby notched two assists Monday in the Penguins' 3-2 win over the Flyers in Game 5 of their first-round series.

EDGE Analysis

Both points came in the second period, as Crosby helped set up a tally by Connor Dewar, as well as the very fluky game-winner by Kris Letang that ricocheted home off the end boards. In between, Crosby briefly headed to the locker room to get his knee checked out after getting hit by a shot attempt from Ryan Shea, but he appears to have avoided anything serious. Crosby has gotten onto the scoresheet in three straight games, collecting a goal and five points during that span, and he'll likely need to come up big again in Game 6 on Wednesday if the Penguins are going to stave off elimination once more.

Crosby scored a power-play goal on three shots, added an assist and blocked two shots in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Flyers in Game 4.

EDGE Analysis

The goal was Crosby's first of the postseason, ending a five-game run without a tally for the 38-year-old. He's been limited to three points with 13 shots on net, eight hits, six PIM and a minus-2 rating over four contests against the Flyers in this first-round series. Crosby's 74-point output in 68 regular-season games was his lowest total in five years. Prior to this year, he had collected 201 points over 180 career postseason contests. His goal Saturday was his 100th career road point in the playoffs.

Crosby (rest) was in his usual first-line role at Thursday's practice session, Michelle Crechiolo of the Penguins' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Crosby was rested for two of the Penguins' last three contests, no doubt as part of his recovery from multiple knee injuries this season. Despite missing some time, the veteran center still racked up 74 points in 68 games this season and might have been able to achieve the 90-point mark for the fourth consecutive year were it not for the missed injury time.

Crosby will not play Tuesday against the Blues, with Pittsburgh resting its key players for the playoffs, per Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports.

EDGE Analysis

Crobsy has 29 goals and 74 points across 68 appearances in 2025-26, maintaining his remarkable point-per-game pace despite missing time after sustaining a lower-body injury while representing Canada at the 2026 Winter Olympics. His rest here is purely precautionary ahead of the postseason. Crosby remains an elite fantasy option in all formats and is a lock to feature prominently on Pittsburgh's top line when the playoffs begin.

Crosby (lower body) is expected to play against Washington on Sunday, per Michelle Crechiolo of the Penguins' official site.

EDGE Analysis

Crosby is available to return to action after sitting out Saturday's 6-3 loss to Washington. He has amassed 29 goals, 74 points, 158 shots on net and 58 hits across 67 appearances this campaign.

Crosby (lower body) will not dress Saturday versus Washington.

EDGE Analysis

The Penguins are in the postseason, and there is no reason to play Crosby in their final regular-season home game, as he is not 100 percent. The 38-year-old superstar has 29 goals and 45 assists over 67 games this season.

Crosby picked up two assists in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Devils.

EDGE Analysis

The 38-year-old had a hand in tallies by Egor Chinakhov in the second period and Evgeni Malkin in the third. Crosby has reeled off three straight multi-point performances, and over 11 games since returning in mid-March from a lower-body injury he's delivered two goals and 15 points. He remains one goal away from his 14th career 30-goal campaign with three games left in the regular season for the Penguins.

Crosby tallied a goal on four shots and distributed two assists in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Panthers.

EDGE Analysis

Crosby tallied a goal late in the opening period before later providing helpers on goals scored by Rickard Rakell and Bryan Rust. With the three-point outing, Crosby is up to 29 goals, 43 assists, 154 shots on net, 58 hits and 29 blocked shots across 66 games this season. Sunday's outing helped him secure 70-plus points for the fifth consecutive campaign. Since his return from a lower-body injury, he has recorded 13 points over his last 10 games. Crosby should continue to provide elite fantasy value for the remainder of the regular season.

Crosby collected two power-play assists in Saturday's 9-4 rout of the Panthers.

EDGE Analysis

The 38-year-old superstar had a hand in tallies by Erik Karlsson in the first period and Evgeni Malkin in the second. Crosby has delivered a goal and 10 points in nine games since returning from a lower-body injury in mid-March, and after 65 contests on the season he sits two goals short of his 14th 30-goal campaign, and one point away from reaching 70 for the 16th time.

Crosby pocketed two assists in Monday's 8-3 romp over the Islanders.

EDGE Analysis

Back in the lineup after sitting out Saturday's loss to the Stars due to a nagging lower-body injury, the future Hall of Famer helped set up tallies by Ryan Shea in the second period and Bryan Rust in the third. Crosby has produced one goal and seven points in six appearances since making his initial return from the injury he picked up during the Olympics, and on the season, he's churned out 28 goals and 66 points in 62 contests.
