Unable to make the lantern shine in his last 10 games, Crosby finally scored in the second period. The Pens captain skillfully deflected a shot from Erik Karlsson behind Juuse Saros before speaking his mind to Michael McCarron, who had tackled him hard moments earlier.
Crosby also had three assists. His teammate Bryan Rust also had four points with two goals and two assists, including the game-winning goal in overtime.
The Predators had the lead three times, but they didn’t have the last word. They remain the only team not to have won 10 games this season.
Steven Stamkos and Jonathan Marchessault both scored their ninth goal of the season. For the Quebecer, this is a fifth duel in a row with a point, which changes the situation after a difficult start.
The Penguins continue to gain momentum with their eighth victory in 11 games.
