Sidney Crosby will not be in the Pittsburgh Penguins lineup on Friday night against the New York Rangers.

The star center was ruled out of the game after appearing to suffer an upper-body injury during the team's 3-2 shootout loss to the New Jersey Devils on Tuesday night. He notably missed Wednesday's practice but did practice on Thursday and participated in Friday's morning skate.

Crosby is set to serve as the captain for Team Canada at the 4 Nations Face Off that will begin on Feb. 7. His status remains uncertain for the tournament.
