Gold medal game hero Sidney Crosby as well as Chicago Blackhawks stars Duncan Keith, Patrick Sharp and Jonathan Toews have been invited to Canada's Olympic hockey tryout camp next month.

Crosby, the Pittsburgh Penguins captain, who scored the overtime winner as Canada beat Team USA 3-2 to claim gold at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics, will try to lead Canada to another gold at the 2014 Sochi Games in Russia.

"I have never been to Russia," Crosby said in a conference call.
