PHILADELPHIA (AP) The kitschy light-up bracelets flickered in the darkened arena and another packed house roared ”Crosby sucks! Crosby sucks!” Here’s the thing Philly fans haven’t yet accepted about Sidney Crosby over the last 13 years Jakub Voracek Jersey Kids , he really doesn’t – and especially not against the Flyers.Crosby matched a postseason-best with four points on a goal and three assists to help the Pittsburgh Penguins silence the raucous crowd and beat Philadelphia 5-1 on Sunday for a 2-1 lead in the first-round series.”When we needed to, we made some good plays, we got some big saves and that’s what you need this time of year,” Crosby said.It’s the path Pittsburgh took the last two seasons all the way to parade routes in June.Crosby, who has 93 points in 63 career regular-season games against Philly, shut up the orange-and-black die-hards with a wraparound goal off a turnover midway through the first.Crosby had a hat trick in Game 1 and the three-time Stanley Cup champion showed no sign of easing up against his nemesis.The Flyers haven’t won a playoff series since 2012 and pulled out all the theatrical stops in their return to the postseason after a one-year absence.Flyers fans even stuck photos of the hated Crosby inside the urinals throughout the arena that had to guarantee they were more on target with their shots than anyone on the home team’s roster.”It’s not the first building that’s happened in,” Crosby said, smiling. ”I don’t know if they stole that idea from someone else.”Two of the so-called fiercest rivals in the NHL have provided three lopsided games: Pittsburgh’s 7-0 win in Game 1 and Philadelphia’s 5-1 victory in Game 2 could about qualify as nail-biters in this series.Game 4 is Wednesday night in Philadelphia.Crosby scored his fourth goal of the series in the first period, and Derick Brassard, Evgeni Malkin and Brian Dumoulin scored in the second to make it 4-0. Malkin and Dumoulin scored 5 seconds apart.”After the third goal, I should’ve taken a timeout,” Flyers coach Dave Hakstol said. ”That would’ve been one thing to stop that momentum.”Justin Schultz made it 5-1 in the third on Pittsburgh’s third power-play goal of the game.Matt Murray stopped 26 shots to make it stick.Brian Elliott, yanked in Game 1, had another rough outing and might need to borrow fellow Wells Fargo Center tenant Joel Embiid’s black mask to have a better look at the puck.Elliott, who had 21 saves Youth Jordan Weal Jersey , was stunned at how easily the Penguins scored twice in 5 seconds.”Guy walking down main street,” he said.The Flyers ran a video package full of bloody fights, big goals and memorable moments between the teams through the years with a ”Bitter Rivals” caption. The Penguins could have just looked in their reflection from the 2016 and 2017 Cups and shrugged off the idea the Flyers are in their league.Brassard scored on the power play just 2:48 into the second. The Pens hit with back-to-back stunning goals that put the icing on the urinal cake: Malkin scored on a one-timer and Dumoulin off the faceoff beat Elliott through the five-hole for a 4-0 lead.Crosby won the faceoff to set up the goal and had both assists, naturally, on the goals that matched the NHL playoff record for fastest two scores by one team.”He thrives in that environment,” Penguins coach Mike Sullivan said. ”He has a comfort level in that environment. When stakes are high, in an away building, he tends to play his best. He has an ability to stay in the moment. He doesn’t get rattled. He doesn’t get fazed by adversity. That’s why he’s an elite player and he’s so accomplished.”At that point, each team had 12 shots.The Flyers, who played more like the team that lost 10 straight games over November-December, had no shot at pulling off the comeback. Travis Sanheim scored late in the third for the Flyers’ lone goal.”It’s not time to panic here,” Flyers captain Claude Giroux said.Notes: Flyers great Bobby Clarke was at the game. So was former Flyers captain Peter Forsberg. … Philadelphia 76ers star Ben Simmons was in the house. The Sixers have won 17 straight games. Fans started chanting ”Trust the Process!” as the game turned into a rout. … Philadelphia’s 22 wins at home during the regular season were the fewest of any team in the NHL playoffs.— ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — The San Jose Sharks looked like they’ve developed another star.Timo Meier scored twice, had a third goal nullified after an offside review and added an assist Sunday night to lead the Sharks to a 4-3 overtime victory against the Anaheim Ducks.His second goal came at the 2:12 mark in OT, finishing off a mad scramble in front of the net. He now has a career-high Scott Laughton Jersey , eight-game point streak.“It was a big win by us,” Meier said. “We stuck with it. We stayed positive and got two huge points.”Logan Couture and Rourke Chartier also scored for the Sharks, who’ve won four of their last five. San Jose goalie Martin Jones stopped 27 of Anaheim’s 30 shots on goal.Meier, 22, was San Jose’s first-round pick (ninth overall) in the 2015 draft. He scored 34 goals last season, his first full season with the Sharks.After starting 5-1-1, the Ducks suffered their fifth consecutive loss. They’ve surrendered 19 goals in the five losses.Sunday the Ducks got two goals from Pontus Aberg and one from Josh Manson. It was the first goal of the season for Aberg and the first multi-goal game of his three-year career.“I got a lucky bounce on the first goal,” Meier said. “It was a confidence builder. It’s been a while since I’ve scored in this league. I’ve shown I can (score) in the American (Hockey) League.”Goalie John Gibson stopped 45 of San Jose’s 49 shots.Anaheim looked lethargic early in the game, falling behind 3-1 to the Sharks before finding some spark.Couture put the Sharks up early in the first period with a wrist shot, but Manson answered less than 2 minutes later with his own short wrister. It was Manson’s first goal of the season.The Sharks then took control, getting goals from Chartier and Meier. Meier’s first attempt at a second goal was erased when Ducks coach Randy Carlyle asked for a review and the Sharks were ruled offside.“If we had a break it was when they were offside on the goal,” Carlyle said. “It kind of turned things in our favor, and we started to play. Question is, what were we doing in the first 30 minutes that was so much different than the last 30?”Aberg took an assist from Ryan Getzlaf and sent it past Jones for his first goal late in the second period. His second goal was a thing of beauty. This one was an unassisted, Aberg weaving the puck back and forth seven times and finally around San Jose’s Joakim Ryan and into the net.“Their (defenseman) turned his back after my first move Womens Sean Couturier Jersey ,” Aberg said. “I tried to pull it back. It worked out.”That tied the game 3-3 and sent it into overtime.Meier’s second, second goal ended it. After a scramble in front of the Anaheim net, Gibson appeared to have the puck in his left glove. But instead of burying the puck, he flicked it out and went to Meier, who drilled it past him for the game winner.“I thought we deserved to win,” said Sharks coach Peter DeBoer. “There was a big swing in the second period when our goal was disallowed and then they got the ‘seeing eye’ one.“I thought we had an opportunity there to probably put them away and we wouldn’t have come down to what it did, but that’s hockey. You gotta give them credit for hanging around. Gibson gave them the chance to do that.”NOTESBrent Burns assisted on Couture’s goal, and like Meier, now has a career-high, seven-game point streak. .
