On this day in 1978, Mike Bossy became the first NHL rookie to score 50 goals in a season. And 30 years ago today, Bossy became the first NHL player to score 60 goals in three consecutive seasons. He scored 53 goals as a rookie in 1977-78, the first of his nine straight 50-plus seasons that included four Stanley Cups. Bossy was the 1982 Conn Smythe-winner, and his career average of .762 goals per game is the highest percentage in NHL history. (B. Bennett/Getty Images)
