Amazing performance from a 37-year-old Canadian
Captain Pittsburgh Penguins Sidney Crosby conquered another achievement.
The 37-year-old Canadian became the 10th player in the NHL to score 1,600+ points in his career. Sidney achieved this indicator in the NHL regular season match between the Penguins and Sabers (6:5 OT).
In the reporting match, Crosby provided two assists and added a goal. With 1602 points, the Canadian is in 10th place, and this season he can aim for ninth place, where Joe Sakic (1641) is located.
The leader of this rating is the legendary Wayne Gretzky, who has 2857 points. The top 3 includes Jaromir Jagr (1921) and Mark Messier (1887).
In the 2024/2025 season, Pittsburgh scored six points in five games and is in fourth place in the NHL Eastern Conference standings.
Sidney Crosby becomes the 10th player in NHL history to record 1,600 regular-season points, reaching it in the fifth-fewest games.
