Sidney Crosby continues to climb the ranks of the best playoff performers of all time.
With an assist on Kris Letang's second-period goal, the Pittsburgh Penguins captain collected his 185 career playoff point, putting him in a tie with Steve Yzerman for 10th all time in playoff points.

Crosby will most certainly ascend higher on the list as he sits just three points back of Joe Sakic and Doug Gilmour, who are tied for eighth. However, he has 197 more points to go if he plans to catch Wayne Gretzky, who holds down the top spot.
