Feel free to fact check this, I know I am myself. But Toews, Kane, Kopitar and Crosby have won 11 Cups combined before any of them turned 30. But two playoff rounds combined - the same round in 2020 by Toews and Kane - after 30.

Crosby had turned 30 in 2018, when they (finally) lost to the Caps in the 2nd rd.

A statistical oddity about 'Stumpy' Steve Thomas: He scored fewer than 500 career goals (421, to be exact), yet scored 110 or more goals with THREE different franchises.

I can't imagine too many NHL-ers have done that overall, but would anybody else have done so who scored less than 500?

EDIT: I already found one! Pierre Larouche actually did this also, and his career goals are actually lower than Thomas, at 395.

Just another interesting oddity: In a couple of the Edmonton Oilers' recent games, their 4th line has consisted of Perry, Henrique, and Skinner. This is perhaps a unique 4th line in that it has scored over 1000 NHL goals in sum.
