Just one week after telling The Canadian Press he was confident a deal could be struck that would save the NHL season, the Pittsburgh Penguins captain acknowledged Thursday that he was going to start looking closer at what options might be available for him in Europe. "A little harder, yeah," said Crosby. "I think thats something that everyones got to figure out. You try to figure out where things stand and I dont think theyre in a great spot right now." Crosby was one of 18 players to attend a bargaining session that saw the NHL Players Association table three proposals. The league quickly dismissed each of them. It came on the heels of an offer from the league that would see revenues split 50-50 and have a full 82-game season start on Nov. 2. Crosby left Toronto feeling less certain that any NHL hockey would be played at all this year. "Today wasnt really a step in the right direction if thats what were trying to do," he said. The labour impasse comes at a time when Crosby is as healthy as hes been in a long time. Severely hindered by concussion-related problems the last two seasons, hes symptom-free now andd anxious to get back to playing meaningful games.dddddddddddd Despite the obvious insurance issues hed have to contend with before heading to Europe, its looking more likely hell have to join the roughly 150 other locked-out NHLers abroad to resume playing. A nagging concern for the NHLs most recognizable player is his belief that the league isnt committed to negotiating a fair contract. "When you look at the offers, its pretty clear," said Crosby. "I dont know if their willingness to negotiate has really shown through their offers. Theyve been kind of hard-line offers, take it or leave it." Crosby entered the NHL following the lockout that claimed the entire 2004-05 season and played a big role in the success the league enjoyed afterwards. Despite the bad feelings that have crept into CBA negotiations, he doesnt expect that it will dampen his enthusiasm to help the NHL grow the game once the work stoppage comes to an end. "Hopefully, were not at that point yet," said Crosby. "You have to separate those things. It is a business at the end of the day. Thats the darker side of things and nobody likes dealing with this. "Its not good for anyone, thats the bottom line." ' ' '
