"Last week was a busy week in the NHL, as there were multiple trades ahead of the roster freeze. With some struggling teams and some executives desperate to make changes, expect to see a flurry of moves once the freeze is listed. We also witnessed NHL history of late and have to give flowers to one of the league's all-time greats. Here's the very latest from around the NHL:"
"Sidney Crosby sits atop the Pittsburgh Penguins records book as the franchise's all-time points leader. The future Hall-of-Famer recorded two points on Sunday night against the Montreal Canadiens, and passed Mario Lemieux, becoming the Penguins' all-time points leader, moving into eighth on the NHL's all-time points list. Crosby recorded points number 1,723 and 1,724 against the Canadiens and is now up to 20 goals and 37 points in 35 games this season."
