Lemieux presents Crosby with 1,000-point plaque
by from on (#2D8CA)
From one legend to another.
Prior to Sunday's contest between the Detroit Red Wings and Pittsburgh Penguins, former NHL superstar Mario Lemieux presented Penguins captain Sidney Crosby with a commemorative plaque recognizing his 1,000th point.
Making it extra special, part of the plaque is made of steel from the Civic Arena, the Penguins' former home and where Crosby began his NHL career in 2005.
Crosby hit the millennial mark in a three-point outing against the Winnipeg Jets on Thursday.
