The Return of Sidney Crosby

It's been more than 10 months (10 months and 16 days in case anyone was counting) since Sidney Crosby, the National Hockey League's crown prince, last graced one of its games. He's missed 68 of them after suffering a concussion in early January: 41 last season, seven in the playoffs, and another 20 this fall, a dismal streak that will finally end Monday night. It always seemed this day was just around the corner, and it also seemed this day would never come.
