Tonight saw a match-up of future Hockey Hall of Famers for the San Jose Sharks and Pittsburgh Penguins. Joe Thornton is ranked twelfth with 1,028 assists on the all-time assists leaderboard for the NHL and seventeenth for all-time points (1,424) throughout his twenty-one seasons of play. Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin have three Stanley Cups and two of which are back-to-back (2016, 2017), and Crosby is the back-to-back Conn Smythe trophy winner. Among the stars on both rosters, these three shine the brightest and have proven themselves to be the key playmakers for both teams.
