I first saw The Flash in action in March of 93, here in Los Angeles. He was already in the record books and a shoo-in for the Calder trophy, but I at least got to see him put another notch in his belt. It was my first live game, and I've been a Selanne fan since!
Wow, I was at this game, awesome, he scored four goals, no one figured he'd break that record that day. I got a puck from this game, i was sitting about 8 rows up behind hextall on that goal
Selanne was a 22 year old rookie. He was drafted 10th overall in 1988, but had to fulfill his military obligations for Suomi and then went to teach kindergarten. Who knows what numbers he would have put up had he played an additional 4 years in the NHL. To be fair however, I seriously doubt he would have scored 76 goals at 18...maybe 54 though.

Well, Ovechkin has scored like a ton of goals lately. I firmly believe that he will someday be a 600-700 goal total player, if his level of play stays high throughout his career. Bure was similar in his early days, slowed down abit, but went back to the high level in Florida. But, only time will tell. :)
Selänne really is one of the greatest players out there ever! Last season when he played first time witout the pain he had been suffering for a long time, and he made a hell of a season from it. He really enjoyed playing in a long time.

The worst trade of the Winnipeg/Phoenix franchise was to trade Teemu. Our lost; Anaheim's gain.

All Selanne had was Housley, and he was a defensemen. The closest forward towards Selanne in points that year was Zhamnov at 72!

I don't see any rookie scoring 76 goals or even coming close to beating Selanne's rookie record. Even in the new NHL, not happening.
speedracerjeff 5 years ago
or if it does happen... i hope i'll be here to see it :) Cuz that player is going to be something.. John Tavares maybe?

Nah, I doubt it. 76 goals as a rookie is MENTAL. And with the goalies nowadays it's even harder.

He could have got 80 or so but he missed a few games and some goalies made spectacular saves in the final few games, where he was completely robbed.

Selanne played in every game in 1992-1993 season. So he didn't miss any games that season.
