History for Crosby, Lardis’ Path, Nestrašil’s Trajectory, PWHL Reaction, and Other Blackhawks Bullets

The Blackhawks were off yesterday, things are bad here, and the Blackhawks don’t play again until tomorrow. So I want to start our Monday with some respect for an all-time great making history on Sunday. Sidney Crosby had two points on Sunday. The second, an assist on a power-play goal by Rickard Rakell at 12:40 of the first period, gave him 1,724 points (645 goals, 1,079 assists). That’s one point more than Mario Lemieux, and now the most points in Pittsburgh Penguins history. Hocke...

The Penguins did bring in Stuart Skinner and Brett Kulak while moving out Tristan Jarry and Samuel Poulin, but those pieces can b...
