Obscure hockey facts/stats (Part 2)

[Crosby2010]

Pete Mahovlich holds the Habs franchise record for assists in a single season with 82. Two things to consider here. Mahovlich had a much more wicked prime than we might remember. Secondly, the greatest franchise in hockey history and probably North American sports history outside of the Yankees never had someone else get more than that? That's surprising. Not even Lafleur. And there has been one 100 point season in Montreal since 1980 by a player. Hard to believe but it's true.

10/28/2024 marked a rare “sports equinox” — a day featuring games from each of North America’s Big 4 sports leagues.

Starting Monday night, within a span of ~24 hours, the Knicks lost, the Yankees lost, the Giants lost, and the Rangers lost.

Would love to know the last time that happened to all four of a city’s teams.
