99 has most of the records. No one did and will ever do it like Mario Lemieux. Player-Legend-Owner-Icon. Magnificent 🙏🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧

The greatest ever imo. But certainly the savoir of the franchise....twice. I really miss seeing him on the ice!

[@tatovive]

I’ve stood where he was in the end. Pittsburgh is a helluva town. Been a fan since 1990, what a ride. Thankyou you Penguins

[@jcnlaw]

Definitely a generational player and terrific ambassador of the game.

[@michaelleroy9281]
