PITTSBURGH -- Sidney Crosby scored his 599th NHL goal, and the Pittsburgh Penguins recovered from blowing a three-goal lead to defeat the San Jose Sharks 4-3 in the shootout at PPG Paints Arena on Saturday.

Malkin turned back the clock to score what should have been the Penguins’ second goal in the first period. He carried the puck through the neutral zone, changed pace, deked through and weaved around a trio of Sharks players, then fired a backhanded shot through the short side of goalie Vitek Vanecek.
