Pittsburgh’s Sidney Crosby scored his 600th goal in the NHL last night after being served by teammate Erik Karlsson.

However, the hit, which came in the middle of the inning, would prove to be the only thing Crosby and his Pittsburgh could enjoy in the game against Utah, which ended in a blowout loss, 6–1.

Among active players, only Washington’s Alexander Ovetchkin has scored more goals, a total of 868.
