In what started out as a close game after two periods Tuesday night between the Pittsburgh Penguins and the Columbus Blue Jackets tied 2-2, Sidney Crosby continued to do what he does best which is owning the Blue Jackets and showing up in the clutch. Crosby had a hat trick and an assist accounting for the Penguins four out of five goals.
Crosby’s efforts helped the Penguins extend their winning streak to five games. He will look to extend that win streak to six with another Metropolitan Division rivalry game Thursday night at home against the New Jersey Devils.
