Sidney Crosby is just three points shy of 100 for the season and one
point shy of 200 for his NHL career. With a point tonight against the
New Jersey Devils, he'll be the youngest player in NHL history to
reach 200 points, at 19 years, 204 days. Even if he doesn't get a
point tonight, he'll still have plenty of time to reach the milestone
and beat the record set by Wayne Gretzky, who reached 200 points at 19
years, 347 days.
"I'm not there yet," Crosby said Monday. "I'm just going to worry
about playing the same way. I don't sit there and admire (my numbers)
during the season, especially not now when things are so tight. Last
year, I got (to 100 points) the second-to-last game, so when you're
one game from finishing a season you can think about it a little more.
But, really, my mind's on winning."
