In his potential absence, Connor McDavid may take on leadership as captain. Meanwhile, Crosby’s injury has sparked discussions about NHL players’ participation in the Olympics due to injury risks. Elsewhere, Team USA won gold in women’s hockey, and Alex Ovechkin is focusing on a playoff push after the Olympic break.
