 Teemu Selänne - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
He is the NHL record holder for most goals scored in a rookie season with 76 and most points scored with 132.
As the NHL did not grant "rookie" status to players who came to the NHL after previously playing in the WHA, the "rookie" record is officially held by Selanne while the "first year" player record is credited to Gretzky.
Following his rookie season, Winnipeg Jets prospects Keith Tkachuk and Alexei Zhamnov began to come into their own as star players and the young trio would begin to form a formidable line that at any time could score, play strong defense, or engage in physical play.

As always, this list is intended to spark debate and is by no means inclusive of all the great rookie seasons in NHL history.
Look, this is a list of NHL rookie seasons, not WHA rookie seasons and not first years in the NHL for non-rookies.
Wayner came from a league many NHL old-timers said was bush, but he was ruled ineligible, a pretty small-minded decision given the contribution he made (and continues to make) to the NHL, to the sport and to Canada.
