Las Vegas - So, one of the BEST players in the world, Sidney Crosby, has an 'upper body injury.' My question is, why do these hockey coaches have to be all secretive? Are they thinking about joining the CIA? Everyone who watched the last game saw Crosby take a wicked elbow from Jacob Trouba right to the head. Pittsburgh coach, Mike Sullivan, said, "We can win games regardless of who is in our lineup. We have a lot of depth at all of the positions. We believe we have what it takes to win.

Las Vegas - How angry is Boston? On a scale of 1-10, we would say about an 11. The Celtics thought that Marcus Smart was fouled shooting a 3-pointer, but the refs called it on the floor.
