Sidney Crosby overtakes Mario Lemieux in career games played tomorrow

Tomorrow night will mark another milestone for Sidney Crosby as he suits up for career game #916 for the Pittsburgh Penguins. You’ve probably heard why it’s a big deal, but here’s another look:

It’s tough to pass Mario Lemieux in any all-time category but here’s one Crosby will over take the big guy. Any possibly never lose in the future? Tough to never say never but this certainly is a mark that should stand for a while. Then again, when Lemieux passed Jean Pronovost sometime in 2001 most probably thought the same (or thought Jaromir Jagr would pass him) and that never came to be, so the future can be uncertain like that.
