Jinxed?

The trade deadline was over a month ago and yet Marian Hossa and Sidney Crosby have only played together for about... 44 minutes.

Stay with me here: Hossa, traded to the Penguins at the February trade deadline from the Atlanta Thrashers played only a few shifts before being taken out with an injury for a few weeks. While he was out Crosby returned from his high ankle injury... but then re-injured it. So at this point Hossa returned from his injury. Today, Crosby returned... again. Hossa and Crosby played on a line together for the first two periods, but a few minutes in the third period Hossa took a hit to the head from behind from Sean Bergenheim and left the game looking quite confused.

Hossa did not return, no word yet on if he's concussed... it sure looked like it.
