Eight years ago today, Sidney Crosby came up big in overtime of Game 2 of the 2016 Eastern Conference Final.
The Penguins had dropped the opening game of the series at home to the Lightning and were at risk of falling two games behind if things didn’t go right in a pivotal second game.
It was a little bit of a chaotic first period as the Penguins jumped out to a 2-0 lead with goals from Matt Cullen and Phil Kessel, but Tampa Bay battled back with goals from Anton Stralman and Jonathan Drouin before the period ended.
