Sidney Crosby showed off his amazing reflexes on Wednesday night when the Penguins took on the Capitals. 

With less than a minute remaining in the third period, Patric Hornqvist had his stick knocked out of his hand. Luckily for him, Crosby was there to save the day in a pretty miraculous way.

Crosby managed to catch the stick with his own, hand the stick back to his teammate and continue playing without missing a beat.

The Penguins host the Blue Jackets on Sunday.
