After missing Pittsburgh's final two games before the NHL break for the 4 Nations Face-Off, Sidney Crosby took part in Canada's first practice Monday and declared himself good to go.

Pittsburgh Penguins star and Team Canada captain Sidney Crosby assuaged concerns that he would miss the beginning of the new 4 Nations Face-Off, saying he will play Wednesday against Sweden. Crosby hurt his left arm last week and sat out Pittsburgh's final two games before the NHL's break for the four-team international tournament.

Pittsburgh Penguins star center Sidney Crosby, 37, injured last week in a loss to the New Jersey Devils, told reporters on Monday that he's "good to go" for Team Canada's opener against Sweden in the 4 Nations Face-Off Wednesday night in Montreal.
