(Pittsburgh, PA) Pittsburgh Penguins center Sidney Crosby broke an NHL record for the most assists recorded with one NHL franchise.
Crosby’s assist on defenseman Erik Karlsson’s power play goal in the first period of the Penguins’ game on Saturday against the Montreal Canadiens in Montreal gave him 1,112 assists recorded while playing for the Penguins.
Crosby got one more assist later in the game, which gives him 1,113 for his career.
He passed former Boston Bruins defenseman Ray Bourque to get this record, and Bourque recorded 1,111 assists while playing for the Bruins.

(Cranberry Township, PA) The Cranberry Township board will hold a public hearing at its meeting on December 10th, which involves a proposed Emergency Services Authority that would set a mandatory fee for EMS in Cranberry.
If it is formed, the authority will start meeting in January of 2027 to determine the fee.
During an agenda preparation meeting on Thursday, supervisors authorized the advertisement of the hearing and the intent of Cranberry Township to form the municipal authority.
According to Cranberry Township board of supervisors chairman Bruce Hezlep, roughly 15 to 20 EMS agencies have closed just this year due to insolvency in the state of Pennsylvania.
