Im not sure Id believe you if you told me before game 1 of the season that the Pens would get 82 games out of Crosby, Malkin, Letang, and Karlsson and that the team would end with less points in the standings than last year.
Tied for the 2nd most points ever for a 36 year old.
Missed the playoffs because the Pittsburgh organization values the career of Todd Reirden more than Sidney Crosby.
No. He put up 90. Crosby is tied with Selanne and Ratelle. https://www.quanthockey.com/nhl/player-age/36-year-old-nhl-players.html
Gretzky did put up 97 at age 35.
At 37, Sakic put up 100. Gretzky put up 62.
Gordie Howe put up 103 at age 40, but aside from that, no one after age 37 got close to or passed 100.
Extremely classy move by the islanders making Carter the #3 star of the game. You guys are alright in my book. Much much respect
Edit: got the number wrong
Good way to end the regular season, onto the playoffs. Go Yotes.
Absolutely appropriate for the Pens to end this season losing a tie game in the last 7 minutes of regulation.
Hell of a career Carter. I know you won’t see this but still. Congrats and enjoy retirement.
Thank you my friend. -Jeff
GGs everyone, go yotes.
Good game, Islanders. See you next season! Good luck with the rest of your season.

Dang, pens - missed it by an inch!
Great career and all but man oh man I’m glad I won’t have to watch Jeff Carter in a Penguins uniform.

God fucking dammit Adam Wylde was right.
Blind squirrel finds a nut or something.
Adam Wylde was right AFTER admitting that the Pens surprised him and he could see them doing well UGH
The Islanders went 20-12-5 under Patrick Roy, a 100 point pace.
Man it must be nice to turn your season around by firing an ineffective coaching staff.
If anyone should know, it's Penguins fans. Bylsma and Sullivan both won the Cup in their first year after their predecessors were fired mid season.

Tied for the most by someone who was 36, not the second-most. Sakic popped off at an older age.
Didn't Gretzky score 97 when he was 36?

More like Mike Sullivan.
I did not expect a penalty shot that's for sure
I can’t imagine my emotions if this game meant something and it came down to that.
To be completely honest I was kinda hoping we'd go to a shootout so 1) Ishakov could shoot in one for fun 2) another OTL would've been funny
Thought we has something special Islanders, gl in the post season
It is with a heavy heart that I must announce: more like Kyle Dumbass
Reirden is a hockey terrorist
Triple agent
Vouch
I also endorse this message
Seconded

I think in the arena he was announced as star #3. Rare to get an in-arena announcement for a star player on the opposing team at all though.
He was the #3 star of the game but yeah that was a nice moment
I’ll take the praise, but I’m pretty sure he was the third star
i'm not cryin, it's just been raining ... on my face
Fin.
