It was late in the game, but after Rikard Rakell equalized to 1-1 in the last second of the second period, the match went Pittsburgh's way and they won away against Boston with 2-1.
Sid (Crosby) found me there in the middle in front of the goal and I think it changed the momentum for everyone ahead of the third period, says Rakell to NHL.com about the equalizer.
Superstar Crosby, who has scored a few more goals than Rakell in his career – 600 against over 200 – picked up the puck behind the goal and blasted it forward to Rakell. Also, Swedish defenseman star Erik Karlsson got an assist for the goal.
A little over seven minutes into the third period, new acquisition Philip Tomasino from Nashville scored the winning goal.
