"The NHL All-Star Game played out in normal fashion Sunday at Scotiabank Place. A night earlier, health news about Sidney Crosby fairly well upstaged the skills challenge.

On the day of the main event, though, there was no update about Crosby, the Penguins center and captain who for most of the past 13 months has been dealing with a concussion, symptoms associated with concussions and now news of a neck injury from some point that was discovered last week, an undetermined time after it apparently healed.

No one from the club addressed Crosby's status Sunday."
