[Midnight Judges]

Too bad he's rotting @ PIT

Pittsburgh sacrificed quite a lot in service to the Malkin/Crosby/Letang window. Whatever drawbacks there are now, there generally were benefits previously.

Sid could walk into Dubas’ office and pick his destination if he wanted to. The dude is choosing loyalty over chasing cups to finish out his career, and that’s entirely his choice. It’s not like he has much of anything left to prove anyway.

I would like that Montreal were contenders in 2 years, and Crosby make a trade to them, and finish
off with a Cup in Montreal.

 

[Greatzsky 99]

Crosby with 400 PP assists, 16th all time, could pass Bobby Hull in goals, next assist would tie him with
Gordie 1049, entering top 10, In RS+PO became tied with Yzerman for 1178 assists, 9th all time, 2 Games from entering top 50 all times games played (RS + PO)

 

[Greatzsky 99]

Crosby passed Hull and tied Howe! in under 3 minutes

new assist, PASSED Howe!

 

[Rodgerwilco]

With his second assist of the afternoon Crosby has now passed Gordie Howe for 10th all-time in assists.

 

[Shrimper]

Gretzky is going to lose two records over a few days, barring injuries, when they happen.

 

[Dessloch]

Full credit from the big guns!

Crazy, if the broke neck or the steckel hit had not occurred we would be looking at 2000 points
