Sidney Crosby's Career Potentially Ends as Pittsburgh Penguins Eliminated from NHL Playoffs

Sidney Crosby, one of hockey's greatest players, may have played his final playoff game after the Pittsburgh Penguins were eliminated by the Philadelphia Flyers in the first round. Cam York scored the game-winning goal in overtime of Game 6, sending Philadelphia to the second round and ending Pittsburgh's season. The defeat raises questions about whether the 36-year-old Crosby, a three-time Stanley Cup champion, will have another opportunity to compete for hockey's ultimate prize. The Penguins' early playoff exit marks another disappointing postseason for the aging core that dominated the NHL in the 2000s and 2010s.
