Jason Spezza picked up the 960th point of his National Hockey League career on Friday night moving into 100th place on the all-time scoring list.
"I welcomed him to the 100 club," said a grinning Joe Thornton, who's No. 14 overall with 1,521 points. "It's very special ... it’s a huge accomplishment."
"A huge honour to be in that group," Spezza said, "but I'm still playing so I'm just going to keep going and will get a chance to look at all that stuff when we're done."

He’s had—and is having—a great career, never losing that boyish enthusiasm. Great to see. pic.twitter.com/3zbWAdpCqu
