Crosby makes first career trip to Calgary as Penguins visit Flames

Dec 6, 2007 - 3:07 PM Pittsburgh (12-12-2) at Calgary (11-13-4) 9:00 pm EST

CALGARY, Alberta (Ticker) -- It took more than two years for Sidney Crosby to play an NHL game in Western Canada. If he keeps playing the way he has, he won't be welcomed back any time soon.

Crosby will make his first career trip to Calgary as a professional when the Pittsburgh Penguins square off against the Flames on Thursday night.

The reigning Hart Trophy winner, Crosby notched three assists Wednesday as the Penguins rallied for a 4-2 victory over the Edmonton Oilers. He has three goals and seven assists over his current six-game points streak.

The 20-year-old captain leads Pittsburgh with 26 assists and 40 points this season.

Calgary's 3-1 win over the St. Louis Blues on Tuesday marked the first time this season that they were able to win without a point from captain Jarome Iginla.

Flames rookie Dustin Boyd tallied the game-winner in that contest.

Flames All-Star netminder Miikka Kiprusoff has yet to get a shutout this season, posting an 11-11-4 record with a 2.92 goals-against average.
