US EditionSidney Crosby’s Two Goals and an Assist Lead Penguins to 5-3 Win over Panthers
Sidney Crosby scored two power-play goals, extending his four-game goal streak as the Penguins improved to 6-2-0, their best start since 2019-20, with a 5-3 win.
- On Thursday, Sidney Crosby, Pittsburgh Penguins center, had two goals and an assist as Pittsburgh scored five goals in Sunrise, Fla.
- Tracing the history, Crosby's two goals on the power play were his first since October 2023 and the 12th of his career.
- Tristan Jarry made 34 saves for Pittsburgh, while Erik Karlsson added two assists and Sergei Bobrovsky gave up five goals on 16 shots for Florida.
- The result inches Crosby closer to historic company as he is two points away from joining Gordie Howe, Steve Yzerman, and fellow Penguins legend Mario Lemieux with at least 1,700 career points for one franchise.
- It was the first time Crosby and Brad Marchand each had two or more goals, and the Penguins host Columbus while the Panthers host Vegas Saturday.
