I get it. The Pittsburgh Penguins are the Washington Capitals biggest rival. We hate them. We wish them nothing but the worst. Especially Sidney Crosby.
But unfortunately I need to break character for a minute to show you this transcendent, jaw-dropping tally by Sid. It’s incredible.

I’m not going to spend too much time explaining what happened because the GIFs are where it’s at. Look at this hand-eye coordination.
Carey Price tries to whack the puck out of the air. Crosby hits the puck to himself and then backhands the puck out of midair for the goal.
I think we can all agree that Sidney Crosby is good, but this was a really good play.
And if you ask me, this is your NHL goal of the year.
