↵He pushed the puck past New Jersey center Travis Zajac directly off the draw at center ice, then chased it into the Devils' zone before getting off a good shot on Devils goalie Martin Brodeur.
↵"I thought I might catch them off guard a bit," Crosby said. "If the puck wasn't bouncing, I think I would have been in. I thought I had a chance.
↵"It's good to try things sometimes, put guys on their heels a bit."

Wednesday's matchup with the Toronto Maple Leafs could offer a great chance for Crosby to get on the board, though. The Penguins' captain has 14 goals in 20 career games against the Leafs, his highest goal output against any non-divisional opponent.
