I'll see if I can hunt it down but it was incredible.

Crosby embarrasses a mispositioned forward (Ryan Donato) using the back of the net to create space before sending a seeing eye pass to Dom Simon #LetsGoPens #Pens #HockeyTwitter #HockeyAtHome #Podcast #NHL #Crosby pic.twitter.com/o1vJRPjye8

Just look at the damn hands, man, especially the ice-level view. After he dekes Donato and circles back he has that puck on a string and is just waiting for someone to over-commit before he threads it between 3 players and the goalie without any of them getting a stick or skate on it. Just awesome.

Crosby’s game is better down low than McDavid and will translate better as he gets old, but the oh **** look d men get when McDavid turns the corner the acceleration and hands at that speed is crazy.
This goal is crazy good , to beat a pro D clean like that is hard
