Here's a list of every player who has scored 50 goals in the OHL: http://www.ohlalumnicentral.com/reso...-goal-scorers/

They basically fall into three categories: Players who scored 50 before they were draft-eligible; Players who scored 50 in their overage seasons; and Players who scored 50 in between those two extremes.

If you look at the list since 2000-01:

The first group includes Kane, Tavares, and Stamkos. By and large, this group has gone on to have successful NHL careers, and some have become the best players in the game. Brett MacLean is probably the only real "bust" out of this group.

The overage group is more bust than boom. Ryan Callahan falls into this group, but most of these players haven't done much of anything in the NHL.

The tweener group is where Mangiapane fits. Even though he was drafted last year, this is his Draft-eligible +2 season.

This is the list of players who put up 50 goals in their 19 year-old (but not overage) seasons since 2000-01 (plus their NHL points and games played):

David Bolland :: 208/433
Reid Boucher :: 23/65
Luca Caputi :: 9/35
Miguel Delisle :: 0/0
Matt Foy :: 13/56
Corey Locke :: 1/9
Brett Parnham :: 0/0
Rob Schremp :: 54/114
Vincent Trocheck :: 80/143

Bolland had a couple of decent seasons with Chicago. Boucher seems to be coming along well. If Mangiapane could follow the same development path as Trocheck, I think we'd all be happy.
