Forget Gretzky...Records that will never be beat

[Greatzsky 99]

I think it's pretty safe to say that Sergei Makarov's record for oldest player to win the Calder will never be broken.

Calder throphy kind of sucks imo, same with Selänne, he played 4 years senior hockey before NHL

Most pims is like most pucks shit over the glass. No one cares

You speak for everyone?

...there were 6 Sutter Brothers that played in the NHL...and word from them was the 7th Brother was the best player of the bunch...

What's the record for most game 7 losses before a win (for a great player not a random scrub), Matthews is 0-5.

...there were 6 Sutter Brothers that played in the NHL...and word from them was the 7th Brother was the best player of the bunch...

Highest-scoring set of brothers in the NHL are Wayne and Brent Gretzky. Brent contributed 4 points towards this total.

Gary Bettman oversaw 3 lockouts. That better be a record.

 

[Jabba11]

Henri Richard's 11 Stanley Cups as a player.

Larry Robinson's and Nicklas Lidstrom 20 straight seasons with appearances in playoffs

Merci Bonsoir.

...no one here can spam the Boards with .gifs like Ginger Papa could...they'd crash now...

Except those wouldn't be very hard to beat? Just infract every time you go onto the ice.

Those aren't even real records. Real records benefit the team. Being bad isn't a record.

The year Schultz broke the season PIM record was the same season Flyers won the Stanley Cup, his style of playing was one of intimidation which worked that season.

Ken Doraty holds the record for most goals scored in a single overtime with three. I assume he (or more likely his family) won't be worrying too much about that mark from 1934 being beaten.

 

[McShogun99]

Gretzky's points record
Gretzky's assists record
Gretzky's 50 in 39 record.
Gretzky's 92 goal season record

I think those will all be broken. The points and assists record won’t happen in our lifetime though.

Every answer that isn’t Glenn Hall starting 502 consecutive games is simply a wrong answer

 

[Mr Nogatco]

Tony Iob once picked up a lighter from the debris being thrown onto the ice during a line brawl, and tried to light an opponent’s jersey on fire. Don’t think we’ll see that again.

You would be out of the NHL very quickly these days. They’ll never be beat

Another fun fact about Ken Doraty... he scored the overtime winner (and only goal of the game) in the longest playoff overtime in NHL history at the time (104:46 of overtime), a record that would stand for only three years, somehow. Only two games that have ever gone to 6OT.

Randy Holt's 67 PIMs in one game seems safe.

Even funnier, Iob and the guy he tried to set on fire were both drafted by the same team (but I don't think they ever were in a camp together).

 

[Chainshot]

I think a random one that will be very hard to beat is Mike Sillinger playing for 12 different NHL teams.

I wonder if he sticks around if Luke Schenn can make it to 12. He has been on the roster for 10 teams, including two twice (Toronto and Vancouver). He didn't dress for the Penguins on his way to the Jets last year.

Duclair is on his 9th - he's only 29. There is a chance there too.

Ovechkin winning 2x end of season all star selections in a single season.

 

[SI90]

Glenn Hall started and completed 502 consecutive regular-season games.

This is absolutely insane and I think we can confidently say it will never be broken.

 

[Hockey Outsider]

Bobby Orr's +124 will stand for a long time.

 

[carjackmalone]

Gordie Howe at 51 not missing a game and scoring 41 points after 9 years out of the NHL

 

[D Wakaluk]

Losing to a zamboni driver

Ok ok someone had to say it.

Bonus round:

Fighting a fan in the penalty box

nah. nobody's getting that many points.
and nobody is scoring over 92 goals in a season
