Watch: Crosby busts into attacking zone, scores with short-side snipe

Sidney Crosby has pulled ahead once again in the NHL goal scoring race.

With his marvelous edges carrying him around Chris Kelly and into a high-danger shooting area, Crosby fired in his 17th of the season past a defenseless Craig Anderson in the first period Monday versus the Ottawa Senators.

Crosby entered the contest tied with Patrik Laine atop the goal scoring race.
