PITTSBURGH -- Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby came through again Thursday.
Crosby scored with 2:25 left in the third period to help the Penguins to a 4-2 win against the New York Islanders at PPG Paints Arena.
Two days after scoring in his season debut against the Florida Panthers, Crosby gave Pittsburgh a 3-2 lead on a wrist shot. It was Crosby's second goal in as many games since returning from a concussion sustained during an Oct. 7 practice.
"We got better as the game went on," Crosby said. "I think we just have to do a better job of staying out of the box and we'll get even more consistent."
