Per the Penguins, this is Crosby’s third time representing Team Canada and the first time since he captained the team to the gold medal in 2015. It’s his ninth time representing Canada at the international level, with the most recent appearance being the 4 Nations Face-Off, where he captained the team to gold.

Though the Pittsburgh Penguins missed the playoffs for the third straight season, that doesn’t mean captain Sidney Crosby’s season is over just yet. The Penguins went 34-36-12, finishing in seventh place in the Metropolitan Division and winning their fewest games since 2005.
