Penguins take two critical points against Detroit, Crosby 1,000 assists

The Fan Morning Show - A podcast by Audacy - Fridays

Hour 1 with Dorin Dickerson and Adam Crowley: It's a party on 5th Ave. The Penguins are in a playoff spot again and survived after blowing a two-goal lead to Detroit. They can't play the way they did to win, but if they lost, the vibes and emotions would not be high. We dive into the victory. The Penguins took their time and found a good approach in overtime this time with Sidney Crosby being patient to find Erik Karlsson for the OT winner. We had the Erik Karlsson experience last night playing poor defensively on two goals. Crosby scored a goal and totaled two assists. Sidney Crosby could realistically pass Jaromir Jagr at some point for 2nd all time in scoring. We think he should receive Hart Trophy votes. Auston Matthews should receive mention. There are guys with unreal point totals this year, but the Penguins are nowhere without Sidney Crosby. Crosby was voted by his peers as the most complete hockey player for the fifth season in a row. He now has 1,000 career assists. We look at some of the players who Crosby has set up over the years.
