Whakaotihia te rerenga e whai ake nei: I whiwhi te Penguins i te kōwhiringa tuatahi i te tau
I te tau 1984, ka tohua a Mario Lemieux mai i te Laval Voisins o te Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL). I toa a Lemieux i te Calder Memorial Trophy hei rookie pai rawa atu o te NHL i te tau 1985. I haere ia ki te wikitoria e ono nga tohu Art Ross hei kaiarahi matua o te NHL, i rangatira ia i te kapa ki nga toa Stanley Cup i te 1991 me te 1992, a i whakauruhia ki te Hockey Hall of Fame i te 1997 whai muri i tana reti tuatahi. I muri mai ka hoki mai ia ki te takaro i etahi atu wa e rima mo nga Penguins, a i te tau 1999, ka noho hei tiamana me te rangatira o te roopu. Hei rangatira, i whiriwhiria e Lemieux tetahi kirimana ki te hanga i tetahi papa hou, te Consol Energy Center, e whakarite ana i te heke mai o te roopu i Pittsburgh. Whai muri i te wikitoria a Penguins i te 2009 Stanley Cup, ko Lemieux te tangata tuatahi i toa i te Stanley Cup hei kaitakaro me te rangatira.
