Not only did David Krejci skate in his 1000th NHL games on Sunday, but he made it an extra special one.
Krejci picked up 3 assists in the Bruins 6-0 rout of the Flyers on Sunday, and with it, joined a small list of some of the league's best of the past.
As per NHL PR:
* David Krejci (0-3�3) is the fifth player in NHL history to record at least three assists in his 1,000th NHL game and the ninth to record at least three points.
Krejci joins the following list of NHL legends to do so:
Johnny Bucyk: 2-4-6 on Dec. 10, 1984
Theo Fleury: 1-3-4 on Jan. 23, 2002)
Teemu Selanne: 2-1-3 on Dec. 31, 2006 Gilbert Perreault: 2-1-3 on Jan. 29, 1984 Patrik Elias: 1-2-3 on Jan. 6, 2012
Marcel Dionne: 1-2-3 on March 24, 1984
Steve Yzerman: 0-3-3 on Feb. 19, 1997
Rod Gilbert: 0-3-3 on Dec. 12, 1976
And that's not either, Krejci joined Johnny Bucyk and Patrice Bergeron to become just the third player in Bruins franchise history to record a point in game number 1000.
