yes. I remember that Vanek once had a broken jaw after being hit by a slap shot ... he missed about a month and then played with a full cage for a few weeks:
2009/02/09 Jaw injury, early March
2009/03/04 Missed 9 games (jaw injury)
So if that is any indication, the start of the playoffs should be a possibility for Crosby, but his RS is very likely over.
