Give the first period to Connor McDavid in his first-ever matchup with Sidney Crosby.

The Edmonton Oilers' captain used his terrific vision to set up a pair of goals in the first 20 minutes Tuesday night against the Pittsburgh Penguins.

McDavid took a slick pass from Patrick Maroon and fed Jordan Eberle for the tying goal late in the opening frame.

McDavid one-upped himself less than three minutes later, blowing past Penguins defenseman Brian Dumoulin and dishing a perfect backhand pass to Maroon for the Oilers' second marker.

McDavid picked up his third assist of the game on Eberle's second goal of the contest early in the second period.

Crosby was on the ice for the Oilers' first two goals. Over to you, Sid.
