Pittsburgh’s Sidney Crosby sealed a goal into the empty net 0.1 seconds before the end of the 4-2 victory over New Jersey. Captain Penguins became the first player in the history of the club to score at least 20 goals in 13 seasons.
He broke the record of Mario Lemieux and Yevgeny Malkin, who succeeded in 12 seasons. He still has 55 points on his account and can play a maximum of 55 matches, which means that even in the 16th season from the beginning of his career he will have a minimum point per match on his account. Only Wayne Gretzky (19) and Gordie Howe (17) have been better at this point in NHL history.
“It’s always nice to be mentioned in connection with Gordie Howe and Wayne Gretzky,” Crosby said.
In the New Jersey jersey, forward Marián Studenič played his sixth match, he was on the ice for less than eight minutes and scored a negative point. Five minutes before the end, Jason Zucker attacked him hard in the middle of the rink and the young Slovak striker hit the guardrail after falling. The Devils did not say if he suffered an injury, but after the match they sent him to the “taxi team”.
