Crosby named NHL's Second Star of Week

Crosby was named the NHL's Second Star of the Week for the week starting March 6 for his production in the Penguins' four games that week, scoring two goals and five assists, with both of his goals being game-winning tallies. His five assists and seven points were both tied for third in the league in that span.
