NEWARK, N.J. — Sid might be superstitious.
But all around the Prudential Center on Super Bowl Sunday, it was evident that many in the building were thinking about a possible 500th goal. The sparse crowd of 11,242 featured a significant contingent of Penguins fans decked out in black and gold. Many of them packed along the glass ahead of warmups, including one fan who waved a sign that read "500" in big block letters.
As it turned out, Sidney Crosby's milestone will have to wait, but the Penguins will return to Pittsburgh with a win nonetheless.
