Historically the best goal scorers in the NHL shot a lot and often have relatively lackluster S%. In the last 30 years among players who played a minimum of 400 games here's the best s%
1st Craig Simpson (lading others by a big margin of 3.1%)
2nd Sergei Makarov
3rd Mike Ridley
4th Rob brown
5th Cam Neely
6th Mario Lemieux
7th Alex Tanguay
8th Gary Roberts
9th Pat Elynuik
10th Peter Stastny
Some big names like Lemieux, Neely, Makarov and Stastny but some not so big names too. Best goal scorers?
1st Jagr
2nd Hull
3rd Selanne
4th Shanahan
5th Iginla
6th Sakic
7th Robitaille
8th Yzerman
9th Ovechkin
10th Recchi
Outside of Lemiouuuuuuuuuuu I'm taking the 10 best goal scorers list before the 10 best s% list and it's not really close.
