Sidney Crosby used his superb playmaking skills to find Chris Kunitz on the doorstep in the first period of Sunday's game between the Pittsburgh Penguins and the San Jose Sharks.
The Penguins captain received a pass from Derrick Pouliot in the right faceoff circle and quickly spotted Kunitz approaching the far side of San Jose's net. Crosby sent the puck to Kunitz for a tap-in to put Pittsburgh up 2-0.
