The game was moved from the start of the season to mid-season in the 1966-67 NHL season as part of the move to promote the NHL to six new cities who would have their own teams.

At the age of 32, and in his 12th NHL season, Bucyk hit the 30-goal plateau for the first time, gained NHL-wide recognition as a second-team All-Star, and most important, finally got back to the playoffs.
His 51-goal, 116-point season resulted in his first selection to the first All-Star team, and his eight penalty minutes in 78 games earned him the Lady Byng Trophy as the NHL's cleanest player.
More than 20 seasons of bodychecks -- and Bucyk, though rarely penalized, hit as hard as anyone in the league and was a hip-check specialist -- left him with persistent pain in his shoulders and back.

Some seasons are incomplete, especially in the areas of uniform numbers and playoff statistics.

 Crease Monkey Player Profile - Ken Dryden
After spending a season and a half in the minors, Dryden made his debut in the NHL, allowing just nine goals in six regular season games for Montreal in the spring of 1971.
Dryden would follow up his "worst" full season in the NHL with his best, allowing barely two goals a game.
His sabbatical the prior season may have helped raise his goal-against average to 2.69 - the highest of his professional career - but he still finished third best in the league, behind only Bernie Parent of Philadelphia and his former teammate Rogie Vachon, who had since been traded to Los Angeles.

 Gretzky's legacy: Records that will last forever
Now in an era where the NHL has a difficult time finding one 50-goal scorer in a single season, it's difficult to imagine a single player who once scored 92 in an 80-game schedule (1981-82) and produced at least 71 goals a year for four consecutive seasons (1981-82 through '84-85).
Gretzky's 212-point 1981-82 season, scoring a record 92 goals --including a record 50 in 39 games --is apt to be the best-ever season by a forward.
More than his NHL record 51-game streak of 1983-84, where he scored 61 goals and 153 points, this was both durability and determination matched by only one other player: Wayne Gretzky.
