Those were the days

Didn't Daniel Goneau start of his career scoring a bunch of goals early? Then did he get on Messier's bad side about something. I was very young at the time, so absolutely may have the story or player mixed up.

Believe that was the start of the 96-97 season. He scored goals in 5 straight games, early in the season.

edit: Yup. Daniel Goneau 1996-97 Game Log | Hockey-Reference.com

5 goals on 13 shots in 5 games. If analytics and this board were around we would have had thread after thread explaining how it was unsustainable. And, they would have been right.
