Really unfortunate news. Bossy's career was originally cut short by a bad back, and looks like he'll be taken well before he should have as well.
His goals per game average is one record that might just stand the test of time.
Currently he's at 0.762 goals per game with 573 in only 752 games.
The shorter career helps that number for sure. But he was a top notch goal scorer every season he played. 9 straight 50 goal seasons to start his career, I'll be slobberknocked if I see that happen again in my life time.
Can you imagine taking a guy 15th overall, and 2 years later, this guy has 122 goals scored for your team nowadays? Talk about a different era.
