The Kid is back.

Pittsburgh Penguins captain and superstar center Sidney Crosby will make his regular-season debut against the Florida Panthers on Tuesday after missing the first six games with a concussion.

Crosby enters 2016-17 on the heels of a dominant performance at the World Cup, where he recorded three goals and seven assists in 10 games and earned MVP honors.

The Penguins are off to a 3-2-1 start without Crosby, who suffered the concussion during practice back in training camp.
