Digest more
Sidney Crosby reached 1,700 NHL points, joining Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux, and shared his reaction after leading the Pittsburgh Penguins to victory over the St. Louis Blues.
On Tuesday against Vancouver, No. 87 moved ahead of No. 66 for a momentous milestone. Sidney Crosby (1,896) passed Mario Lemieux (1,895) for the most total points (regular-season and playoffs) in Penguins history.
Hitting the 1,700 career point mark, Crosby becomes just the ninth player in NHL history to reach that achievement.
