Sidney Crosby Scores 600th NHL Goal, Joining Elite Company

Crosby becomes the 21st player in league history to reach the milestone during a Penguins loss to Utah.

Sidney Crosby scored his 600th career NHL goal on a power play during the second period of the Pittsburgh Penguins' 6-1 loss to the Utah Hockey Club.
Crosby is the 21st player in NHL history to reach 600 goals and only the seventh to achieve the feat with a single team, joining Mario Lemieux as the only Penguins to do so.
The goal, assisted by Erik Karlsson, was Crosby’s eighth of the season and came in his 1,295th career game, earning him a standing ovation from the home crowd.
Crosby and Alex Ovechkin are the only active players with at least 600 goals, with Ovechkin currently chasing Wayne Gretzky's all-time record of 894 goals.
Despite Crosby's historic achievement, the Penguins have struggled this season, losing 14 of their last 18 games and facing questions about the team's future direction.
