- Discover the NHL's most prolific goal scorers in this breakdown of the top 50 all-time leaders in goals per game.
From legends like Mike Bossy and Mario Lemieux to modern stars like Auston Matthews and Alex Ovechkin, this video highlights the players who redefined scoring in hockey history. Watch now to see where your favorite player ranks!
Bossy was a sniper and a great person. 2 grands Québécois Lemieux et Bossy.
Met Bossy as a kid in Hicksville, Long Island at a Jaguar dealership. I was there with my dad and uncle and I was maybe 9 or 10 years old. It was right about the time he was retiring due to back issues. I saw him and my eyes lit up. I was way too nervous to talk to him, and neither my dad or uncle had any idea who he was. Bossy was watching me explain who he was to them, and with a huge smile he walked right over to us and introduced himself. I got an autograph, but being pre cell phone I didn’t get a picture. Regardless it’s still one of the highlights of my life, and he’ll always be remember as one of the nicest people ever in my book. RIP Mr. Bossy.
Gretzky scored 500 goals in his first 575 games.
If we end Lemiuex's and Gretzky's careers at the same point as Bossy's, Gretzky would have a higher goals per game average.
Bossy never had the chance to decline
Bossy was & is the greatest goal scorer. R.I.P.
Nice! Now let's see this list again, but only the goalies with goals
Bossy is the greatest goal scorer of nhl
BS! He never led the league in goal scoring 9 times like Ovechkin did.
Nobody else has either!
Bossy played in the 70's-80's which was a high scoring era and the goaltenders were smaller. Ovi has far more goals than Bossy.
Ovi is the GOAT of goal scoring!
I think Lemieux is definitely the best goal scorer ever... Lemieux finished his career when he was 40 years old and while he was playing he got 2 back surgery, cancer and irregular heart beat. Maintaining 0,75 is insane. Bossy literaly retired in his prime ( 30 yrs old ) when he started to feel worst. At 30 years old Lemieux had 0,84 goals per game on average
Ovechkin is the GOAT GOALSCORER! Period! Nobody in NHL history has ever led the league in goals 9 times! Not even Lemieux! He's also the greatest Power Play scorer of all time!
Sorry Bud.
You lose!
@Klostrum-j7y Lemieux would have score 1000 goals if he would have been healthy. Lemieux could have lead the league in goals at least 10,12 times, if he would have played more games. For example in 2001 when he cameback after 4 years off, he was able to score 35 goals in only 43 games. You simply have no clues how dominant Lemieux was.
@@Klostrum-j7y because he will get the record, yes. But he is not the best goal scorer we have seen. He's simply out shooting everyone. He was first all-time in shots within 15 seasons surpassing Ray and Jagr who both played at least 20 seasons. He is not efficient, proven by his inability score on shootouts, which is the easiest goal for hockey player to get. He's not even in top 50. If he shot at the same rate as Steven stamkos, he wouldn't even have 700 goals.
Mike Bossy is the best of all time
You forgot Newsy Lalonde! 1.25 goal/game!
😂
People don’t talk enough about Joe Mullen, Charlie Simmer, Ziggy Palffy, Dino Ciccarelli, Rick Vaive, Pat LaFontaine, Marcel Dionne, Rick Martin - I don’t care i needed to mention them all
"Absolutely! Those players were incredible talents who sometimes don’t get the spotlight they deserve. Joe Mullen was a sniper, Simmer was dominant on the Triple Crown Line, and Ziggy Palffy had unreal hands. Dino Ciccarelli’s grit and scoring touch were legendary, and Rick Vaive hit 50 goals multiple times. LaFontaine’s skill and class were unmatched, Marcel Dionne was an all-time great, and Rick Martin was a Buffalo Sabres icon. All of them deserve the recognition-thanks for bringing them up! 🏒🔥"
Top two both played for Laval.
Three decimal points would be next-level awesome!
_Bossy!_
That's why I think Mario Lemieux was the GOAT. If it wasn't from his back injuries and cancer, he would beat Wayne Gretzky's records.
This is not necessarily true. Gretzky was in fact the first to get to every milestone in terms of goals per game. If he had stopped playing when he reached Bossy’s total goals, he would have had a better goals per game ratio. Same thing with Mario’s total (although it would have been very close). Gretz suffered a serious back injury when he was cross-checked by Gary Suter in the 1991 Canada Cup. Up until that time, he had never scored fewer than 40 goals in a season, but he never reached 40 goals again in his final eight seasons as his goals per game dropped dramatically. As far as points per game go, Mario never could have gotten close to Wayne’s totals even if he never missed a game with illness or injury.
Obviously Bossy isn't in your mirror
@@ChuckyDoll79 goals but not points
@@billviola7884 I would say...
Lemieux > Bossy > Gretzky
I know I will hurt some people. :)
@@ChuckyDoll79man please, Wayne outscored everybody in the 80s including bossy.
Where the Hell is Newsy Lalonde? 99 NHL games and 124 goals gives a ratio of 1,25!
And if you claim that was too long ago (1917-1927) fair enough, but how can you then include Howie Morenz (1923-1937)? Even comparing Mike Bossy to Leon Draisaitl is unfair, different era, different game.
Also, Joe Malone at 1.13/game
Maybe 100 game minimum? Like in baseball, can't win a battling title with only 20 at bats in a season, go 9 for 20 (.450 average) and claim to be a good hitter.
There has to be a minimum sample size requirement.
@@skippy675 lol that makes no sense. there were FAR less games in a season.
@@garbagemancan Jesus Mother Fucqing Christ! I mean to have played at least 100 games in a career.
Ovechkin is the undisputed GOAT of Goal scoring.
He led the league in goal scoring 9 times.
Not Gretzky, not Lemieux not Bossy have ever done that!
He's the all time leader in Power Play goals, he will soon swallow Gretzky for most All time, and he's only 3 game winning goals away from becoming the overall leader in that stat too.
He's the Goal Goat. Period!
End of story!
Need to adjust for league avg gpg to get a better comparison.
When you do Gordie Howe had a couple phenomenal years…
Amazing number of unknowns…
Russian Rocket!!!!
This is a little misleading… the top 6 had shortened careers, where near the end of full careers your gpg will drop off significantly.
Austin Mathews should have retired after his first game, close out with a cool 400%…
"😂 Imagine dropping 4 goals in your debut and walking away undefeated-ultimate mic drop! Matthews has been amazing since that first game, though, so I think we’re all glad he stuck around! 🏒🔥"
2 Qc top scorer!
Joe Malone! Where is Joe Malone?!
143 goals in 126 games played. That’s 1.13 GPG
В общем, рецепт успеха одинаковый: завершаешь карьеру в 30 (+/-) лет, и попадаешь в первую десятку легенд-голеадоров.
You are comparing players goals per game over an entire career while Auston Mathews is over his first 7 or 8 years of his career. Mike Bossy's was 0.76 over his entire career. Only in his final year where he had to cut short due to injuries that he didn't score 50 goals.
Bossy only played 10 seasons. Gretzky had a better goals per game pace than him after 10 seasons. Had Bossy played 20 seasons like Gretzky, he’d have a much worse goals per game pace.
Bossy also played in the easiest goal scoring era. All those early years of feasting on the Capitals, Kansas City Scouts, Cleveland Barons, Oakland Seals, Colorrado Rockies and the early WHA entry years. No wonder everyone scored 35-50 goals. The expansion rules were pretty awful those years.
@waynethera2712 1980s was a joke. Cardboard cutouts masquerading as goalies with the highest goals per game and the worst goalie save percentages that the NHL ever saw.
The boss had 37 goals with 28 games remaining when his season ended
@patbrennan6572 The end of his career. He only ever played through his prime and never played 20 seasons like Gretzky did. This allowed his goals per game to never face a decline.
LOL! What's with tje Matthews toupet? Lol
I came here just for this too hahaha that photo is photoshopped for sure lollll
Why photoshop Matthews hair 😝😝 he is almost bald …
Not the correct Syl Apps...you need his father.
Syl Jr. was a heck of a player but more of an assists guy than a goal scorer.
Of course Bossy and Bure are this high. They retired very young. Check Ovechkin not to mention Gretzky! Stats after first decade insane. Bossy doesn’t even have a second decade.
Bossy was forced to retire with a bad back
Had Wayne Gretzky not been more of a playmaker instead of goal scored who knows how many more goals he would have. Minimum HUNDREDS! Also, as a player gets older their productivity and numbers go down. What people are saying about Super Mario you can also say about Mike Bossy who played several seasons with a messed up back. Bossy is listed where he belongs at #1 greatest goal scorer of all time.
horrible list
These are actual stats
@ you need to learn about hockey Those might be stats but they are not correct. Don’t comment when you don’t know what you are commenting about
