Bruin fan since 1975
so I was looking at some numbers just to see how playoff scoring really has happened throughout history and I just shocked the pants off myself
barry Pederson is the third highest scorer points per game in nhl playoff history... its not even close between him and number 4 on the list
the ONLY 2 guys in history that did better are wayne gretzky and Mario Lemieux. This is despite Pederson getting hurt and only making the playoffs 4 times in his career... struggling to put up only 2 points in his last 6 games
so in those first 2 years Pederson made the playoffs for us... he has 21 goals and 50 points in just 28 games... did we know that? does anyone remember this guy and how freaking amazing he was?
Bobby Orr... Cam Neely... even gord kluzak… norman leveille… we all know this franchise history with the great names we lost to horrible injuries or illness too early in their careers. why is barry Pederson never on this list?
I was only around 11-12 when he busted on the scene so its a long time ago now. I guess im guilty as anyone else letting the memory of this guy fade. at that time I used to debate the kids at school here in alberta that Pederson was as good as gretzky and better than the other pretenders to the throne. perhaps I was a bit biased... but this playoff numbers dont lie
only Mario Lemieux and mike bossey have ever scored goals at a better rate than barry Pederson at playoffs. Maurice Richard is 4th...
do you see these names that compare to Pederson at playoffs... gretzky… Lemieux.. bossy... Richard... there is no one else
holy forgetton superbruins of the past
