Crosby reaches century mark again

Sidney Crosby had two points (one goal, one assist) for the Pittsburgh Penguins in a 4-3 overtime loss to the New York Rangers at PPG Paints Arena, giving him 100 points (35 goals, 65 assists) for the sixth time in his NHL career.
Five players have more 100-point seasons than Crosby: Wayne Gretzky (15), Mario Lemieux (10), Marcel Dionne (8), Mike Bossy (7) and Peter Stastny (7).

six players
to reach 100 points this season, joining Tampa Bay Lightning forward Nikita Kucherov (128 points), Edmonton Oilers center Connor McDavid (116), Chicago Blackhawks forward Patrick Kane (110), Oilers forward Leon Draisaitl (105) and Boston Bruins forward Brad Marchand (100).

Draisaitl scores 50th goal

Draisaitl scored at 10:55 of the first period in the Oilers' 3-1 win against the Calgary Flames at Scotiabank Saddledome, giving him 50 goals for the first time in his NHL career.
He is the first Oilers player to score 50 goals since 1986-87, when Gretzky (62) and Jari Kurri (54) reached the mark.
Draisaitl, whose previous NHL high was 29 goals in 2016-17, finished second in goal scoring this season behind Washington Capitals forward Alex Ovechkin (51). Ovechkin won his eighth Rocket Richard Trophy and has led the NHL in goals more times than any other player.
This was the third time in the past 10 seasons that there were at least two 50-goal scorers. Lightning center Steven Stamkos and Penguins center Evgeni Malkin each accomplished the feat in 2011-12 and Stamkos, Crosby and Ovechkin each scored at least 50 in 2009-10.
