And really, adjusting for the time period most of the guys above him were playing in, it's almost certainly a top 4 or 5 performance. All those 1980s guys hit 250 when Mike Liut was one of the best goalies in the game, and didn't have a lockout to slow them down like Ovechkin and Stamkos did. Ovechkin did get to play from 05-08 when PPs were called a ton, whereas Stamkos has just had the tight checking, low penalty calling era since then.

Last year's broken leg as well. :( 14 goals in his first 17 games before he got hurt. He could easily be 4 or 5 on the list even with the lockout.

Well, yeah, but I'm sure plenty of players have had their run to 250 disrupted by injury.

Yeah. You've gotta stay healthy to get on the list. Yzerman missed 45 games on his way up the list, Mario almost 30.

Bossy didn't even start until he was 21. That guy's career ended far too early.

It sure did. Started too late and ended too early. :(
