Crosby practices, but no return is imminent

"Penguins center Sidney Crosby skated for a second consecutive day -- this time in an organized practice.

Three reasons contributed to Crosby's decision to practice Saturday at the Tampa Bay Lightning practice facility:

• Crosby felt fine following a 30-minute skate Friday in Sunrise, Fla.

• The Penguins only had access to ice in Tampa for a short time, leaving Crosby no time to skate individually before or after practice.

• Penguins coach Dan Bylsma already had determined yesterday's practice wouldn't be physically demanding.

"It was noncontact out there," Bylsma said, "so it wasn't any different (for Crosby) than yesterday.""
