Its pretty fresh so maybe well remembered now. But in 10 years time I bet many will look back at RNH's 104 point season with surprise.

Another one, Miro Heiskanen 26 points in 27GP in the 2019-2020 playoffs, most by any defender since Leech, Coffey and McInnis. And no one talks about that either. Damn another Stars player, maybe im a secret fan, don't tell anyone.
Good one, if i would had to guess before you said it, i would've said his career high is like 80.

In 94 Scott Stevens had an 18 goal 60 assist season. The 60-assist season is still a Devils record today.

Is Zach Hyman's 54 the new Cheechoo? Or will he get back to 50 or thereabouts?
And people only remember him for his elbows, that's an insane season.

Ok sorry Flames fans, but i gotta say, Huberdeau's 115 isn't "not talked" since it got him 84million, but it's an outliner at least. "He didn't even play with Barkov that much" Yep, thats the reason, Barkov took the rough minutes and Huby cashed in. (sorry not sorry)

Rob Schremp had 54 points in 114 games.

Jiri Hudler leading the Flames in 2014-15 in goals and points (31 and 76) and ranking 8th in the NHL in points. All whilst surpassing his own career high of 57 points and then playing his last NHL game 2 years after that
Jamie Benn won the Art Ross that year with 89 points, so it was super low scoring. Especially for those who played the Montreal Carey Prices

Alexei Zhamnov in 1995. 65 points in 48 games. Behind Lindros and Jagr's 70 points that year. Thats 111 points in a full 82 games for a guy who never got more than 76 points in a year.

It's gotta be Bernie Nicholls in 88/89 with 70 goals and 150 points.
Was Brad Richards 91 points even sneaky? He had 79 points followed by 26 points in 23 games and Conn Smythe in the playoffs in a much lower scoring year (2004), followed by 91 points the following season, etc. He's always been a good player.

Proud Canucks investor.
Do we call this the Bernie Nicholls/ Rob Brown Award? Or were those not considered sneaky?

What about Jari Kurri in 84-85 playoffs, 14+17=31 in 19 games played, including 4 hat tricks.

That sort of production wasn't really an isolated instance for Kurri. He had 28 points in 19 games the previous playoffs. 31 in 19 games 3 years later. Also had several regular seasons with production around and above that mark.

When Scott Gomez randomly scored 30 goals in the wide open 05-06 season. Then the rest of his career, he turned back into the 10-15 goal scorer playmaker he always had been but was hated by fans for not being a 30 goal guy. Anyone else remember that old site like didscottgomezscoreyet.com?

Gionta scoring 48 goals and 89 points next to him that same season was another outlier

For that matter, Brad Richards is generally just not talked about much. There was one year where he was the sweepstakes UFA that everyone was chasing, and signed what at the time was a huge deal with the Rangers. These events are hardly ever mentioned when people discuss that time period, compared to e.g. Tim Thomas or Ryan Kesler who remain top-of-mind for their peaks at the same time.

He's the 12th highest scoring defenseman of all time, and you only remember him for elbows he didn't throw? Had you said he's only remembered for headshots, you'd be on to something but he only took 4 elbowing penalty in 1635 career games.

How about John Cullen? He finished 5th in scoring in 1991, ahead of some big names (Yzerman, Sakic, Fleury, Roenick, etc).
He spent most of the year on Pittsburgh so you might think that he benefitted from playing with Lemieux. But they only had one point together (out of Cullen's 110).
He was traded to Hartford at the trade deadline (and missed out on Pittsburgh's Stanley Cup win). He scored 77 points the next season, then never again topped 60.
