The Pittsburgh Penguins own a 2-0 lead in the Stanley Cup Final thanks to a wonderfully crafted, and apparently spontaneous set play off an offensive zone draw a little more than two-and-a-half minutes into overtime.
Watch as Sidney Crosby pulls the puck back to Kris Letang, to then float a pass into a soft area between defenders for Conor Sheary, who pulled the puck from his skates to fire beyond Martin Jones' tardy glove hand to end Game 2.
Sheary's fourth of the postseason, and second of the series, is his first career game-winner, and has the Penguins within two wins of the Stanley Cup after a 2-1 win in Game 2.
