Sidney Crosby can take sole possession of sixth place on the NHL’s career points list when the Pittsburgh Penguins visit the Los Angeles Kings on Saturday. Crosby and Marcel Dionne are tied at 1,771 regular-season points.

Crosby drew level with Dionne on Oct. 31 in Montreal, where he had a goal and two assists. Pittsburgh opens a three-game trip at Crypto.com Arena, with puck drop scheduled for 9 p.m. ET.

The Penguins have won their past three games in Los Angeles. A win Saturday would give them four in a row there for the first time.
