He admitted that the reason he wasn't on the ice for practice without contact or practices for the past two weeks was because he had experienced headaches and other symptoms ".I started trying to ramp things a bit for work and skating and I got a little symptoms, "said Crosby. "So I had to take a step back. Progression had gone very well, but at the same time, I still wasn't ready ".Crosby has not played since January 5, sitting out the final 48 games, including any loss of series 4-3 in Pittsburgh for the Tampa Bay Lightning in the first round.Training camp is about five months away. Crosby said he is ready.
