In 1988-89, Joe Mullen was 7th in NHL point scoring, 89 points behind Mario Lemieux. He was 5th in goal scoring, 34 goals behind Lemieux.
In fact, the Pittsburgh Penguins had three players with more points than any Calgary Flame: Lemieux, Rob Brown, and Paul Coffey. They bowed out in the second round.
The L.A. Kings had two of the top four scorers, Gretzky and Bernie Nicholls. They got swept in the second round.
Just saying.
