With yet another multi-point game on Thursday, Crosby moved up in the ranks of another all-time list
Despite their overall disappointing start to the season, there is one big reason to be somewhat optimistic looking ahead - and it starts with the big guys.
Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby just keeps on climbing NHL all-time lists.
With his three points in Thursday's game against the Montreal Canadiens, Crosby tied Steve Yzerman for the seventh-most multi-point games in NHL history with 477.
Next on the list would be Mario Lemieux at 497:
In addition, Crosby inched closer to Lemieux on another all-time list, as he currently ranks fifth in NHL history for most assists with one franchise at 1,026. He needs just seven more assists to tie Lemieux at 1,033 and 85 more to tie Ray Bourque for the NHL record at 1,111.
