Sidney Crosby is running low on potential firsts.

The Pittsburgh Penguins captain opened the scoring in the all-Pennsylvania Stadium Series matchup at Heinz Field on Saturday night, marking his first goal in four outdoor appearances.

Crosby's league-leading 34th goal came on a smart feed from Jake Guentzel after Shayne Gostisbehere failed to clear the zone.

Of course, Crosby was responsible for the decisive goal in the shootout versus the Buffalo Sabres in the inaugural Winter Classic staged more than nine years ago. He then suffered a concussion three years later at the outdoor showcase, and was held off the scoresheet versus the Chicago Blackhawks in a Stadium Series event back in 2014.
