Sidney Crosby Reaches 500 Multi-Point Games, Joins Elite NHL Company

Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby achieved a significant milestone, recording his 500th multi-point game with a goal and an assist against the Seattle Kraken. This feat makes him only the sixth player in NHL history to reach this mark and the third-fastest at 1,373 games, trailing only Wayne Gretzky (738 GP) and Marcel Dionne (1,262 GP). Crosby scored the tying goal and assisted on Evgeni Malkin's go-ahead goal, though the Penguins ultimately lost in overtime. He is now 13 points shy of tying Mario Lemieux for the Penguins' franchise points record.
