- Sidney Crosby continues to live up to his generational hype as he's now tied with Gretzky for one of the craziest stats of all time. The Pittsburgh Penguins also made a crazy comeback against the Devils to keep their slim playoff chances alive. That and more in today's NHL hockey video!

If he didnt miss large parts of his best offensive seasons he'd probably be hitting 2000 points around the same time Ovi will be hitting 900 goals. Such a shame we were all robbed of that
Yeah back in crosby prime nhl stars were allowed to be hurt now if someone would injure mcdavid like crosby was he would get banned from league. Locks out as well crosby could be chasing 2000 points and Ovi 1000 goals. Both had to suffer from new deadpuck era too. I think crosby 100 point season in 2014 would now equal easily 130-140 points.
He only missed about the equivalent of about 2 seasons, so your projection of 2000 points is a bit off, but the fact remains that he would have been even more dominant playing full seasons. Health and longevity are crucial. Starting in 1949, Gordie Howe missed a meagre 20 games over 21 seasons. Sid has been healthy since 2013 and seems to get stronger. When his career ends, Crosby will be seen as one of the all time greats with Gretzky, Lemieux, Orr, Jagr, Yzerman, and the rest of NHL royalty.
@@user-we2yt5on9bIts actually two and a half seasons. So yeah. If you average 1.3 ppg withn 211 games missed you get around 280pts. So he actually would be very close to 2000. Probably 1850 points.
@@chelious1973 if is such a big word. The Leafs would have won the last 57 cups if they had been good enough. Crosby was, is, and continues to be one of the greats. No ifs about that.
@@user-we2yt5on9b Agreed.
*NJ and Pittsburgh did a "Freaky Friday" as Pittsburgh's usually the one doing the "third period crumble."*
Dude I kid you not I bet money on the pens to win the game, but when I saw they were down 3-1 in the third, I cashed out knowing there was no hope, and then IMMEDIATELY the pens scored 2 goals and went on to score 5 straight. I couldn’t do anything but laugh. You’re welcome pens fans 👍🏼
@@austink-v8261 *deletes fanduel*
a career avg of 1+ppg is incredible enough, but 1+ppg every season for 19 seasons is nuts. not one off year.
Guys work ethic is un-human. Watching him retire will be rough for fans...but the memories of watching Sid for 20 years has been a blessing for a Pittsburgh sports fan.
Its been a pleasure to watch Crosby all these years. He does so much for the city and growing the game. If the pens stay flat out wretched i wouldnt blame him for leaving. Id cheer him all the same
I'm not even a Pens fan and I adore Sidney Crosby. I'd love to see him finish out his career there simply because it's so fitting, but I also wouldn't mind seeing him hoist the Cup one more time even if that means if it's in a different uniform.
Sid'll leave Pittsburgh when Ovi leaves Washington. I don't either happening.
I don’t think Sid will leave. He seems like he has the character to stay. 3 cups? What’s left to prove? I think he’ll stay loyal. 99 didn’t win the cup with anyone aside from the Oilers, so moving doesn’t matter.
I wish we hadn’t been robbed of Sid’s true potential. He might’ve been better than Gretzky overall, but he’s not. But he sure might be better in some aspects.
@@joelmacdonald6994 Gretzky missed the playoffs his last two years in the league, with the Rangers. His last year there he was still their best player and could have continued, but he saw they were a sucky team with no prospects for being good and he just retired because he didn't want to move to another team. Then the Rangers missed the playoffs the next five seasons.
You wonder if Crosby would retire in the same circumstances if the team's immediate future looks hopeless (as it does). If he would stick it out and just play with a lousy team, like Gordie Howe did at the end of his Red Wings career. Or if he'd look to get traded to a good team. I've thought over the years that, like Gretzky, Sid would end up on the Rangers. I still think that. (I think McDavid & Matthews are going to end up on the Rangers too, eventually. Everybody does.)
There's one reason Pens are still vaguely near a playoffs spot: Sidney Crosby. Carried this team all season and the effort is just so consistent. >1PPG in 19 consecutive seasons is something even Gretzky didn't manage (48 points in a 48 games in 1994-95). It's a continuing delight to watch him play. We're not going to the playoffs this year, but hats off to Sid. What a legend
Crosby is the best player of this century so far, ik ik Ovechkin and mcdavid exist, but I think Crosby is better all round than Ovechkin, and mcdavid still needs more time to prove himself to be better than Crosby.
I don't think that's very controversial outside of some partisan Washington or Edmonton homers.
I think this is a situation where stats don’t tell the full story, if you just give the eye test, Crosby wins it, and I’ve heard so many people say that Ovechkin is better because of the goals, but even when Sid has been hurt more, hurt early in his career, which *could* have been headhunting, and still having more points overall, it’s fair to say who’s better
@@XTotter5505 Two more Stanley Cups and an Olympic Gold Medal too
It's not only his offensive stats, but it's his defensive play too. He became the ultimate 2 way player.
Ovi might score goals but check out his +- versus Crosby. It’s not close. Crosby is the best two way player in history. Gretzky still needs to be respected as the GOAT, but Sid is the best talent since.
Crosby is a legend. Such a stellar player and person. We have been fortunate to know and witness this classy , humanity, skilled, and star ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐✨✨✨✨✨
I thought he was a little whiny in his first few seasons, but ever since maybe year 3 or 4 I've had tons of respect for him . As a Bruins fan, I would probably rather meet Sid than any Bruin.
Sid is the consummate professional. He's not only a diligent star, he says all the right things with ultimate humility.
Here is the question. His contract is up next year. If just before trade deadline he could be traded to a team that could "easily" make it to the finals. (Yes, I know anything can happen in playoffs) would he take that trade? Then come back and sign again with Pens if he still wanted to play.
@trvman1 I hope not. It is so rare to see someone play for only 1 team and with the 3 cups already I think it would make his career all the more special if he stayed.
Crosby working his way up to top 3 OAT
dude is one of the biggest what ifs ever. guy literally had like 4 concussions in what should have been his prime
Anything is possible when you have Crosby on your team. I hope and wish their Pittsburgh Penguins make the playoffs. Let's go Pens !!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
I think if you consider a range of skills and ability, there is no player his equal in the NHL. Still.
Bro is still insane
A video about how great Sid is? Okay I'll watch lol
Let me just say it has been an absolute pleasure being a Penguins fan. Sid is a class act. The haters like to chirp, but he just tied the great one. When you catch Gretzky you are doing it something right. He is the best man on the ice day in and day out. Hats off Sid.
Bro has been over a ppg in the NHL for over half of his life
Fun fact, Crosby is the ONLY player in NHL history to be OVER a point per game for 19 seasons. Gretzky got exactly 1.00 ppg his 16th year, but wasn't over 1. Sid's always been over 1.00, he's just adding on to his own record there
Who cares?
@@robadair Well this video is about Crosby so I am willing to bet everyone that commented something positive about Crosby cares. You on the other hand probably never even watch hockey or could spell hockey.
Leaving in incredible times getting to watch Ovie and Crosby’s careers. Akin to being able to watch Ronaldo and Messi during the same period. We as sports fans have been privileged being able to watch these guys play
Our Nova Scotia pride
You put a 24-26 year old Crosby in this league and he absolutely torches it.
In any league **
Fwiw, Gretzky had one season with 48 in 48, so Sid has the record for seasons with more than 1 PPG.
If Crosby was on a better offensive team he’d easily have over 100 points this season. He’s so close to hitting huge milestones. 3 away from 1000 assists and 11 away from 600 goals. Almost about to beat Phil Esposito for #10 all time NHL points leaders
If he had a league average powerplay he'd finish well over 100 points. If he was on an actual good team he'd be 110-120 ish. League scoring is inflated
I wasn't an Espo fan when he was playing because he was such a big mouth, but have grown to appreciate him over the years and the fact that after all these years he still top 10 in all-time scoring, after all those guys in the 80's playing pond hockey, shows how great he was. And he played a good 1/3rd of his career before expansion when they played a 70 game schedule. He is one of the most under appreciated great players in NHL history.
@@RRaquello - Yeah, very seldom talked about these days...but as a kid in the late 70's, he was larger than life. It was weird having him become GM of the Rangers....
@@RRaquello - Made his bread and butter in front of the net like nobody else. Then we had guys who emulated his net-front presence....like Tim Kerr, and...dare I say, Chris Kreider....
@@samuelluria4744 Espo used to play out further than guys like Kerr or Kreider. He was more out between the circles than right on top of the crease,. He was a big guy (for the time) and looked kind of clumsy but his hands and feet were so quick. That's what fans miss about these guys when they think "anyone can do it". The player who plays now who reminds me most of Espo is Tage Thompson because he also stays further out and has the quick hands.
Crosby is A great one indeed. One night around the time he had back to back concussions-I physically wept. I knew it would have a real and tangible impact on his career. Like the credits song of the hockey movie, Goon say though- We are "working with what you got" He kept playing his best game and we saw a finely tuned Maestro at work for much longer after that. Its no use crying over what might have been.....I'll tell you what the NHL learned from that and started adjusting and cracking down on player safety. Honestly, I think the up and coming stars for years now have had his experience as well as others to THANK PROFUSELY.
Sadly, if he didn't hit that few week period of post Guentzel trade depression, he probably would have had 50 and 100 this year.
What a legend...going forward let's be honest, the man is on three cups already, he's not going to leave here in FA.
As for the Pens in general, I don't know what to make of them at this point. Not even two weeks ago I was hoping they'd just tank because we could use that top-10 pick this year (if our 1st is not a top-10, San Jose gets it from a conditional trade). But this has always been a team that if they sneak into the playoffs, anything can happen.
There's no way he's leaving Tanger & Geno.
crosby casually putting up 19 points in the last 10 games as a 36 year old on a mid team lol
just hit me how much a part of my life sid has been in. its like hes just always there, scoring goals
Its insane ive only seen sid have one bad stretch in his career in 2015 and they won a cup that year
Above all. Sid is a Great human. A very kind and respectful soul. And he can play hockey too. He can deflect a puck from anywhere at any speed towards the net. Most of the time it goes in.
Crosby on his way to break a wayno record and ovi chasing one as well is just poetry.
A legend.
Crosby is a fucking beast.
i’m a penguins and crosby fan. but one technical thing to note… idk how the injuries would affect him going PPG, seeing as he didn’t play the games he was injured…
like, he could have stopped at 81 points but not played another game the rest of the year and still been ppg
Yeah but it’s pretty safe to say he would have easily cleared 82 points if he was healthy. Those seasons he was absolutely tearing it up. 2010 season he had 66 points in only 41 games
Crosby only had 6 seasons under 82 points, he averages 1.25 points a game over his career. So every game 4 games he is banking a bonus point
Its a point per game that he dressed. For example, in 2010 he dressed for 41 games and had 66 points. So he averaged more than a point per games in 2010.
It’s crazy watching all the years of two legends of Crosby and Ovi I’d love to see him take points while Ovi takes goals but if he wants to retire on a good note I don’t blame him either
Tomorrows game is going to be huge
That pens vs lightning game gave me a heart attack
I love penguins I went to the game since I was one I hope they make it to the playoffs ❤❤❤
Lets go crosby
Saw some guy on FB saying hes great but never a dominant player lol. Some people will never learn.
I don't know. The Flyers, while struggling, are currently 3rd in the metro, and given where they're at with other teams with more games in hand on them, they're still pretty much a coin-flip to make the playoffs. The Penguins have to pass up the Islanders, the Red Wings, AND the Caps or the Flyers to make it. It's *possible*, but I would want some pretty steep odds before I put money on that.
The Caps game tomorrow is a must-win in reg for me to even begin to consider revising my stance.
I hope he goes beast mode and gets pens Into play offs and then goes deep in em too
guys i think we can confirm he isn't a draft bust.
It has been such a weird year for the Pens. They usually play well against the better teams but very lacklustre against the average and lower ranked teams.
Maybe playoffs🥺
They technically don’t control their destiny but they also kind of do… if they win out or nearly win out it’s hard to imagine they don’t make it given the schedule they have coming up
1: gretzky
2: lemieux
3: orr
4: crosby
All time
How many players have gotten 40 goals after 19 seasons?
We have been spoiled. Mario to Jagr to Sid? Sid is 4 points away from being 10th all time in points. He is 3 assists away from 1,000. Sid is 1 goal away from 40 on the season. He has only hit the 40 goal mark twice in his career (2009 & 2016). I am a pens fan but i cannot see it where the pens get into the playoffs. I still think the flyers find a way to get in.
I just hope he can climb up higher in the playoff scoring list.
Pens: Give Sid some help. Thanks.
Why is no one talking about Sid's empty net goal? He is the only player in the league whose hockey IQ is so off the charts that could score like that.
We need to have a vid on the 8 people who ejected in the rangers devils game
It was a team effort from the refs all the way down to the stats guys to get him enough second assists to make this amazing milestone happen. Congrats to everyone involved!
I'd say we have about a 6% chance to make it to the playoffs
He’s a beast feel bad he’s carrying the team
I am ashamed of the devils. They absolutely dropped the ball on that game. I honestly don't understand how you mess up that badly. Hope they take a lot of time in the off season to mature
I honestly think that switching out Tristan Jerry for Alex Nedeljcovic, can give the penguins the safety net they need to let crosby do his thing and pull the penguins into the playoffs.
They just might make the playoffs this year. In fact theyre in the wildcard spot right now.
Yes
I'd cut Luke Hughes a little slack on that play the way the puck was bouncing. Of course Sid's gonna come out best in that situation.
As much as I hate the pens, thats an impressive record.
Yeah we’ve been spoiled alright, the dark days are soon approaching and that means so is my childhood😔
Going from one god to another got me
fax
Just when I'd accepted that the Pens were, most likely, going to end up with a top five lottery pick, they go and screw that up with a winning streak, going 4-0-2 in their last six games. What the hell?
Pens +600 to make the playoffs on draft kings...i put a sprinkle on it
Yay Crosby
Quite an achievement, even though I’m a Flyers fan who hates him and the Penguins with a burning passion
They just beat the caps 4-1 hold my beer
As a Rangers fan. I absolutely hate Crosby with the biggest passion. As a hockey fan. I can admit the guy has had a hell of a career
I believe Crosby has more goals against the Rangers than any other team so.....
@@maximus11400 this clown seriously came to me to say that when I actually tried to be nice. Let me remind you it was 3-1 bud
You know, he’s dragging the penguins in the playoffs. I would be so happy if we make playoffs
Crosby is the most complete hockey player in the world for about the last 8 seasons. Ovie doesn’t even come close to his all around value. Mount Rushmore for sure.
Slight chance for the playoffs. Crosby is in the top five players of all time.
LET’S GO PENS
Crosby is a god
OKAY
He’s gonna have to make a vid on devils vs rags, 6 fights in less then 5 mins, 4 pLayers from each team getting kicked out, macdermined f*cking up rempe, multiple fights after first draw, and I’m writing this comment with 9 mins left in the first
No we don't.
Yaaa crosby
IMO Flyers are cooked but the Red Wings are gonna beat us for the spot.
If the pens beat the caps I think they finish ahead of Washington and get in.
Gretzky did not get 19 consecutive PPG seasons, he was 19 total. Sid is 19/19 consecutive. The GOAT strikes again.
Yes he did get 19 consecutive. He played 20 seasons and the only one he wasn’t a point per game player was the last one.
@@durrrrl3435 I believe you are wrong. I think I read somewhere that Gretzky had 16 consecutive seasons
@@maximus11400 “I think I read somewhere”. Just look up his stats, it’s not hard!🤣
What is the record? I don't get it.19 seasons with a point?
19 point per game seasons. Means he's scored at least 82 points for the last 19 seasons.
@@ThingpngNot exactly though. He had some shorter seasons due to injury and concussions. He still averaged a point per game for them though and he would easily have cleared 82 points those seasons
19 straight seasons being point per game
That means more points than games played for 19 straight seasons
Panthers out in 4
FIRST
Best player since Gretzky. MacKinnon is a great 2 way player, but McDavid is King of The Hill these days.
McDavid will be the king of the hill once Crosby gives him the hill.

Can we talk about something else
Nope, never
The Penguins need to trade him while he still has decent value. The team is cooked and needs to rebuild.
Your taek just gave me frostbite
Is Crosby the GOAT ?...nope. Is Crosby a great player and an amazing leader ?...hell yeah! He has had an amazing career. I hope he plays a few more seasons.
This man is gonna singlehandedly will his team to the playoffs this year despite all odds against him. Truly the Modern Day Canadian Goat.
He’s got a to do it! But, 1 in 4 odds. I believe in you!
Crosby is noble team and the penguins are the covenant attacking Sid’s playoff hopes
I see what you did there, and..... nice work.
So, Crosby's objective really _is_ to survive.
