Everybody! Crosby’s Back! Alright!

Hide your forwards, hide your d-men, and hide your goaltenders.

Sidney Crosby confirmed that he will play on Thursday against the New York Rangers.

Interesting enough, this is an away game, being played at Madison Square Garden. Many thought Sid would want to return during a home game.

And to make this day even better, defenseman Kris Letang says he might be ready to go on Thursday as well. Letang says he was never diagnosed with another concussion, like many were speculating.

We’re this close to a healthy team, and it’s ridiculously exciting, isn’t it?
