Olli Maatta Sets Up a Sidney Crosby Goal From Behind His Own Goal Line
@PensLabyrinthFS Gm 1; Olli looked off the defender and passed the other way up the ice to set up (Sid? I can't even remember the goal haha)

We all know what Maatta brings to the table at this point, and this pass up ice from behind the goal line is a perfect example of his vision. He hits Chris Kunitz on the tape, who simply deflects the puck to a streaking Crosby, and Sid finishes by sneaking one between John Gibson‘s torso and left arm.
@PensLabyrinthFS that pass was just legendary, he is a man-child.

I think we can all agree with that.
