Pens Points: Sid makes history in blowout loss

The Pittsburgh Penguins and Buffalo Sabres tussled Thursday night in upstate New York. Stop me if you have heard this before: the opposition scored on their first shot of the game. The game started in the worst possible way and didn't improve from there. [Highlights]

The only positive of a 7-3 loss was Sidney Crosby etching his name into the history books again. The captain scored the Penguins’ first goal of the game and, in doing so, recorded his 20th consecutive point-per-game season, becoming the first player in NHL history to accomplish the feat.
