His first-period goal against the Buffalo Sabres not only secured a crucial point for the Pittsburgh Penguins but also etched his name in the record books once again. With that goal, Crosby officially recorded his 20th point-per-game season, surpassing Wayne Gretzky and standing alone at the top.<\/p><p>For most players, averaging a point per game in a single season is an achievement. Crosby has now done it 20 times. That level of consistency is almost unheard of, but for the Penguins&rsquo; captain, it has become second nature. His dominance didn&rsquo;t stop there; his 80-point season is the 14th of his career, putting him just three behind Gretzky&rsquo;s record. Even at 37, Crosby continues to play at an elite level, proving that age is just a number when it comes to true greatness.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Sidney Crosby: rewriting records, redefining excellence. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/WSPxvRE2Nl\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/WSPxvRE2Nl<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Pittsburgh Penguins (@penguins) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/penguins\/status\/1905402513664180523?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>March 27, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>While injuries have slightly limited his appearances this season, maxing him out at 80 games, Crosby still finds ways to make an impact. His goal against Buffalo was his 26th of the season and the 618th of his career, pushing his overall point total to 1,676. Among all active players, that ranks ninth, a testament to just how much he has accomplished since debuting in 2005. But what makes his career even more special is his loyalty. Crosby has played all 20 of his seasons with the Penguins, and only three other players in NHL history have recorded more points with a single franchise.<\/p><p>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/ovechkin-puts-rivalry-aside-to-honor-andre-fleury-in-classy-farewell-moment\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Ovechkin Puts Rivalry Aside to Honor Andre Fleury in Classy Farewell Moment<\/a><\/p><p>And the milestones just keep coming. Earlier this month, he notched his 1,050th career assist, surpassing Howe to enter the top 10 on the NHL&rsquo;s all-time assist leaderboard. Earlier this season, he became just the 10th player ever to reach 1,600 career points and also celebrated his 600th career goal. <\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What&rsquo;s Next for Sidney Crosby?<\/h2><p>Sidney Crosby continues to prove why he&rsquo;s one of the greatest players in the Pittsburgh Penguins history. With 80 points in 72 games this season, the 37-year-old remains the heartbeat of the team. While the Penguins&rsquo; playoff hopes look bleak, Crosby is on the verge of making history yet again.<\/p><p>The company Crosby keeps in the record books is nothing short of legendary. Behind him and Gretzky in most point-per-game seasons are icons like Gordie Howe (17) and a select group of players with 15, including his longtime teammate Evgeni Malkin and Penguins great Mario Lemieux. That kind of history underscores just how rare Crosby&rsquo;s career has been.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Mario&rsquo;s career is nothing short of magnificent, but let&rsquo;s go back to where it all began with the \"Lemieux Debut\". <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/NI8abJ31kW\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/NI8abJ31kW<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Pittsburgh Penguins (@penguins) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/penguins\/status\/786750048772116481?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>October 14, 2016<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>One of the biggest records in sight is the franchise&rsquo;s all-time points mark, currently held by Mario Lemieux at 1,723. Crosby, who already surpassed Lemieux for the most assists in Penguins history earlier this season, is just 48 points away from claiming the top spot in total points as well. Given his consistency, he could break that record early next season, possibly within the first 40 games.<\/p><p>Then comes the bigger challenge, Lemieux&rsquo;s all-time goal record of 690. Crosby currently has 618 goals, meaning he needs 73 more to take over as the Penguins&rsquo; all-time leading goal scorer. That&rsquo;s no easy feat, but considering he netted 42 goals last season, it&rsquo;s not out of reach. If he keeps up a pace of 35-40 goals per season, he could realistically surpass Lemieux before his current contract expires in two years.<\/p><p>For now, Crosby&rsquo;s focus remains on finishing this season strong. With eight games left, he&rsquo;s expected to add a few more goals and points to his totals. While Pittsburgh&rsquo;s playoff picture isn&rsquo;t promising, Crosby&rsquo;s chase for history is more than enough reason for fans to keep watching.<\/p><p>Image Credit: Nathan Ray Seebeck-Imagn Images<\/p>\n<div class=\"mm-layout mm-layout-type-post mm-layout-slot4\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Crosby surpasses Wayne Gretzky for the most point-per-game seasons in NHL history while adding another milestone to his legendary Penguins career.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":34290,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_mux_skip_reasons":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[52,1760,287],"class_list":["post-34264","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nhl","tag-nhl","tag-pittsburgh-penguins","tag-sidney-crosby"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.8 -
