Sidney Crosby has a 70% chance of playing in Sunday's Olympic gold medal game against Team USA, according to TSN's Ryan Rishaug, but it's expected to be a game-time decision. The Canadian captain left the quarterfinal with a lower-body injury and missed the semifinal, creating a dilemma for Team Canada.
Coach Jon Cooper has given Crosby clearance to potentially play, but the team faces a tough decision: risk playing him if he's not fully healthy or lose a key leader and Olympic legend. Official lineups won't be announced until approximately one hour before game time on Sunday.
