WATCH: Sidney Crosby's INSANE between-the-legs pass ties up the game for the Pittsburgh Penguins against Boston Bruins

In today's game between the Boston Bruins and the Pittsburgh Penguins, there was a moment of brilliance from Sidney Crosby. He fed a perfect pass to Bryan Rust through the legs of Dmitry Orlov to score a goal. Let's break down the play and take a look at how it unfolded.

Charlie McAvoy scored the first goal for the Bruins, giving them a 1-0 lead. Sidney Crosby received the puck in the Pens defensive half and began to weave his way toward the net, attracting the attention of the Bruins' defense.

Orlov was the player tasked with trying to stop Crosby, but the Penguins' captain had other ideas. He faked to his right and then quickly shifted to his left to make a pass.

Sidney Crosby managed to deliver a pinpoint pass, between Orlov's legs, to Rust who was on his left to put the puck in the net. With a quick flick of the wrist, Rust directed the puck past the outstretched glove of Bruins' goaltender Jeremy Swayman and into the back of the net.

The goal was a thing of beauty and showed just why Crosby is considered one of the best players in the world.

Sidney Crosby's ability to read the play and create scoring opportunities out of seemingly nothing is unparalleled in today's game. Rust, for his part, showed great poise and composure to finish off the chance and score a much-needed goal for the Penguins.

Can Sidney Crosby lead the Pittsburgh Penguins to the playoffs?

The Pittsburgh Penguins have had a mixed season so far, with 37 wins, 28 losses, and 10 overtime losses, giving them a total of 84 points in 75 games. They currently sit in fifth place in the Metropolitan Division, just outside of the playoff picture. However, the Penguins are a team that knows how to turn it on when it matters most.

This is a franchise that has won five Stanley Cup championships in its history, including back-to-back titles in 2016 and 2017. Led by superstars like Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin, the Penguins have a knack for playing their best hockey in the postseason.

If they can sneak into the playoffs this year, don't count out the Penguins. They have a proven track record of success in the Stanley Cup playoffs, and they have the talent to make another deep run. Of course, they will need to improve their play in the regular season to make that happen, but the Penguins are a team that should never be counted out. They have a winning tradition and a championship pedigree, and that counts for a lot in the NHL playoffs.
