Crosby reaches 50 for first time- ties for NHL lead

Sidney Crosby put on a show of his own Sunday and nearly skated off with another scoring title. He settled for a share of his first goal championship.

For Philadelphia, the season will continue through at least one playoff round. The Rangers are done. A late-season surge fell a shootout short.

Both the Flyers and Rangers faced the same Game 7 reality on Sunday in Game 82 of the season. Win and you're in. Lose and go home. Henrik Lundqvist starred for New York by making 46 saves through overtime, but he was beaten twice in the shootout and took a 2-1 loss.

"Both teams had to go through it, they are not going to whine about it. That's how it is," Rangers coach John Tortorella said. "When we got to that point we thought we had the advantage. No disrespect to their shooters, but with Henrik there we felt good."

Philadelphia clinched the No. 7 seed in the Eastern Conference and became the NHL's last participant to qualify for the playoffs. The Flyers went from early season Stanley Cup contenders to nearly missing the postseason. Now they will face the second-seeded New Jersey Devils in the opening round and will try to live up to previous expectations.

"Hopefully, we can do something with our lifeline here and use the excitement and euphoria from this win and from our last little stretch of games here to propel us and do good things here in the playoffs," Flyers defenseman Chris Pronger said.

One night after the Pittsburgh Penguins' disappointing 1-0 loss at Atlanta wrecked the defending Stanley Cup champions' bid for the Atlantic Division title, Crosby gave them something to celebrate. The 22-year-old captain hit the 50-goal milestone for the first time in his already brilliant five-year NHL career.

Crosby didn't stop there. His second goal against the Islanders, scored 55 seconds into the middle period, gave him a league-best 51 goals and his first Maurice Richard Trophy. He is the co-winner with Tampa Bay's Steven Stamkos, whose empty-netter in the closing seconds Sunday of the Lightning's 3-1 win over Florida was his 51st goal.

Word reached Crosby on the Penguins bench that Stamkos got even. Pittsburgh was leading 5-4 with about 10 minutes left in regulation, but couldn't get Crosby another goal.

Crosby passed Stamkos — at least momentarily — and two-time defending league MVP Alex Ovechkin of the Washington Capitals, who both began the day with 50 goals. Crosby had two goals and three assists in Pittsburgh's 6-5 overtime victory Sunday.

"It's nice. I put a lot of hard work into it," Crosby said. The fourth-seeded Penguins will start their playoff defense of the Cup against fifth-seeded Ottawa."We know that we've got to start right away, not wait a couple of games to get into it," Crosby said. "We know what is expected of us."

Ovechkin, the NHL's top goal scorer the past two seasons, and Crosby finished tied for second in the overall points race behind Vancouver's Henrik Sedin.

Sedin had four assists to regain the lead Saturday night when the Canucks played their final game and won the Art Ross Trophy with a franchise-record 112 points — including 83 assists. That left him three points ahead of Crosby and Ovechkin, who was shut out in the Capitals' 4-3 shootout loss to Boston in Sunday's finale.

Now, Alex the Great can turn his attention to the playoffs, where the Presidents' Trophy-winning Capitals will look to make noise. They were stopped last year by Crosby and the Penguins and are looking to get to the finals for the first time since 1998.

Washington, which earned an NHL-best 121 points, will open against Montreal. The Canadiens dropped to the No. 8 seed when Philadelphia beat the Rangers.

Buffalo, the Northeast Division champion, could have moved up to the second seed in the East with a win in regulation at New Jersey on Sunday, but the Sabres lost 2-1 and dropped to No. 3 and into a first-round matchup against Boston.

Martin Brodeur made 22 saves to earn his 45th win of the season and secure his fifth William Jennings Trophy as the goalie for the team that gives up the fewest goals.

Brodeur played in 77 of New Jersey's 82 games, and the Devils yielded only 191 goals. Brodeur is tied with Patrick Roy for the most Jennings Trophy wins since the award was introduced in the 1981-82 season.

The San Jose Sharks finished first in the West for the second straight year and will try to turn that into postseason success that has often eluded them. Last season they captured their first Presidents' Trophy, but were knocked out in the first round by No. 8 seed Anaheim.

This time the Sharks will take their chances with eighth-seeded Colorado. Central Division champion Chicago will take on Nashville in the 2 vs. 7 series, and the third-seeded Canucks will face the No. 6 Los Angeles Kings, who are in the playoffs for the first time since 2002.

Surprising Phoenix, which nearly came out of nowhere to pry the Pacific title and the top seed away from the Sharks, has the tough task of taking on No. 5 Detroit. The dangerous Red Wings have been in the Stanley Cup finals each of the past two years against Pittsburgh, winning the championship in 2008 and falling in seven games last June.
