Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby moved into sole possession of sixth place on the NHL's all-time scoring list during a 5-2 victory over the Los Angeles Kings on Saturday night in Los Angeles.
Crosby's empty-net goal in the third period gave him the milestone point. The 37-year-old center celebrated with defenseman Kris Letang as the Penguins secured the win.
The Kings got goals from Alex Laferriere and Adrian Kempe, but Pittsburgh's offense, including contributions from Blake Lizotte and others, proved too much. The win improves the Penguins' record on the season.
