Watching rugby so can't make a proper reply to other posts but... are we sure its just on Sully that Sprong isn't being used on Sid's line? We know that Sid has a loud voice on who plays on his line. As you say, Kessel pretty much never plays with Crosby, and Sprong's more similar to Kessel than any of our other wings.
I feel like Crosby likes playing with young players, especially young skilled guys, so I wouldn't buy this. Crosby was giving pretty glowing reviews of Sprong at the start of training camp too, which makes me think Sprong's demotion comes from Sullivan giving him an incredibly short leash.
