Penguins improve to 5-0 in playoffs when Crosby scores
by from on (#1E88N)
Call it a useless stat, or call it the mark of a true captain, but when Sidney Crosby scores, the Pittsburgh Penguins win.
Crosby hammered his fifth tally of the postseason - the eventual game-winner against the Tampa Bay Lightning - on a lethal one-timer in Wednesday's 4-2 victory, and with that, the Penguins improved to 5-0 in the playoffs when he registers a goal.
Pittsburgh is 5-4 in games in which he doesn't score.
After notching the overtime winner in Game 2, Crosby now has goals in consecutive games for the second time this postseason.
