"Pittsburgh Penguins" head coach Mike Sullivan has spoken out about Canadian forward Sidney Crosby repeating Mario Lemieux's record for most goal assists with the club.
“I just think it's elite company. Mario is one of the greatest players of all time, as is Crosby. The milestones these guys are reaching are something that very few players in the history of the game have conquered. Mario, Sidney and some of our guys have reached those peaks recently. It's further proof that Crosby is one of the best players of all time. And as we know, so is Mario.”
Earlier it was reported that in the match with the "Philadelphia Flyers", Crosby made the 1,033rd pass for his career in the NHL, making him equal to Mario Lemieux. The two legendary Canadiens now share first place in club history in assists for the "Penguins".
