Alert one of the many Royal Canadian Mounted Police, real and otherwise, at the closing ceremonies of the Olympics.
Sidney Crosby's gear has gone missing.
The man who scored Canada's Golden Goal to win Olympic gold in Vancouver returned home without the stick and gloves he used to score them. Maybe his helmet, too, although we're not quite sure on that just yet.
The good news is he did get his mouthguard back.
As soon as Crosby scored the game-winning goal in overtime, Crosby's helmet, gloves, stick and mouthguard all ended up on the ice at the national celebration began. Actually, one of this gloves ended up in the end zone mesh netting above the glass.
When all was said and done, and the yard sale was cleaned up, it was believed both of Crosby's gloves, including the one in the mesh, were put in a bin in the Team Canada dressing room area, as well as his stick.
But somewhere, sometime, between then and when Crosby left, the gloves and stick were nowhere to be found.
Hockey Canada says they are launching a full investigation to see where the equipment may be.
Crosby's mouthguard was returned to him and there's talk that his helmet made it way back to Pittsburgh, but Crosby is the only one who can confirm that and he's playing right now.
