Video: Crosby scores two goals in 52 seconds vs. Capitals

Q5_XUqLPpfC0
Penguins' Sidney Crosby scores two times in 52 seconds as Pittsburgh grabs a 2-0 lead early in the second period.

Sidney Crosby and the Pittsburgh Penguins came roaring out of the gate to start the second period after a 0-0 opening frame against the Washington Capitals in Game 1.

Crosby scored two goals in just 52 seconds to give the Penguins a sudden 2-0 lead. One feels some pity for any fans who didn’t get to their seats just to start the frame ... though in the likely event that they are Capitals fans, they might have been spared.

To Braden Holtby’s credit, he made a couple tough saves moments later to keep it 2-0. It’s been a hectic first few minutes of the second after that relatively mundane first 20 minutes, so hang on tight.
