Sidney Crosby Called The Game Winning Play Just Before The Faceoff

Deadspin Individual plays carry the day. And Conor Sheary’s overtime winner was one play that went precisely according to plan. Sheary’s goal, from Kris Letang and Sidney Crosby at 2:35 of the extra frame, was a designed play, drawn up by Crosby in the moments before the faceoff. “He said he was going to win it to me, that’s it,” Letang said. “He was going to win it to me and I had to find Sheary.”

A commenter on Deadspin also added the iso-cam fotoage just before the faceoff where you can see the captain directing his guys.

Sorry Sidney can’t score the game winning goal in every single contest but this right here speaks volumes to how major a player he is on his way to his second Cup.

This whole sequence, starting with the faceoff, is the gift that keeps on giving.  Starting with the goal and continuing with this nugget, it only gets better when you add in Logan Couture’s comments post game.

If Logan could throw his controller down and walk out of the arena he would have.

Sidenote: Did you get your BONINOBONINOBONINO T Shirt yet over at Center Field Smoke? It’s becoming all the rage and will look dy-no-mite at the parade….
