Frank Seravalli criticized the Penguins legend today for skipping the player draft at this year's All-Star game. He noted that he was seen relaxing on an outdoor rink in Montana while all the other players were busy being selected into their respective teams.



That being said, Seravalli also criticized Crosby for attending so few All-Star games throughout his 18-year career. However, he was wrong on this front as he said this year's event was just his '6th or 7th All-Star game.' In fact, this year marks Crosby's 10th time at the event.

Stay tuned for more updates on Crosby and the Penguins as we head into a critical trade deadline for the team.
