Sidney Crosby’s missing stick and glove have been found.
Hockey Canada says Crosby’s missing Olympic equipment were misplaced rather than stolen.
Crosby’s stick was accidentally placed in a shipment bound for the International Ice Hockey Federation Hall of Fame in St. Petersburg, Russia, that ended up getting intercepted in Toronto.
And one of his gloves was put in a bag belonging to Patrice Bergeron, who sat beside him in the locker-room.
The items were misplaced in the chaos following Crosby’s overtime goal in the Olympic gold-medal game on Feb. 28.
After the gear went missing, an investigation was launched and Reebok put up a $10,000 reward for the stick.
