His second goal of the game would hold up as the game-winner, and was just the latest out of Crosby's book of tricks, with the Penguins captain dropping to one knee.
For Crosby, his goals helped him extend his current point streak to 10 games - the longest active streak in the league - while also helping his club rebound from a 2-0 first-period deficit.
With the win, the Penguins have a three-point cushion over the Detroit Red Wings for the first wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference and sit just one point behind the New York Islanders for third place in the Metropolitan Division.
