...on a dynasty team widely regarded as one of the best of all time. You would never see a team with Trottier, Bossy, and Potvin together today because it wouldn't fit under the cap.
Bossy is the all-time leader in goals scored per game. In NHL history. Gretzky has called him the best right-winger to ever play the game..
The guy had 573 goals and 553 assists in 752 NHL games. He retired in his prime - at age 30. I know a lot of folks on this board didn't start watching hockey until 1998, but you can still do some research about this stuff.
