It's a big mystery, Canadian-style. Sidney Crosby is missing the hockey stick he used to score the winning gold against USA at the Olympics. He's also down one glove, and nobody's seen the puck since it went between goalie Ryan Miller's pads. Someone made off with all of them in the bedlam following Crosby's goal, reports National Post.

"Of all things, I only got my mouth guard back," says Crosby. "It’s one of those things where I don’t know how it got away or where it ended up, but if I get it back one day, great. If not, then someone’s got it somewhere.” Hockey Canada is on the case, notes the New York Times. "We have a couple leads on the stick," says one official.
