In the shortened 2012-13 season Marty St. Louis and Steven Stamkos finished 1 and 2 in points and the Lightning finished 3rd last in the league.

1996 Mighty Ducks. Selanne was a mid-season trade, but broke 100, along with Kariya.
That doesn't count for me -- the 100 has to be scored with the team missing the playoffs (for obvious reasons).

So, there is Quebec '88 and Pittsburgh '90, and that's it!

Well, one record the Oilers and maybe Colorado (if things go good/bad enough for them) can shoot for this season! [sarcasm]

Not quite the same, but the Thrashers had three 90 point players (and one 70 point player) when they missed the playoffs in 05/06

One can argue that this would be more likely with a top heavy team. Less supporting cast means that these guys are playing more and therefore getting more points

Has to be the 89-90 Penguins, right? Mario and Coffey both his the century mark. Cullen had 92 points that year as well.

I look at the line up of both the 1988 Nordiques and 1990 Pens and I just don't get how they missed the playoffs. The 1988 Nordiques had some good top end talent and even though their goaltending was suspect it wasn't even near the worst in the NHL. Their goals-for was 3rd worst though, which is strange when you look at their roster. Hmmmm.

The 1990 Pens were in a tough division but still you figure this team is better than the Islanders aren't they? Lots of scoring up front, good depth, but just horrible goaltending.

Sad story for the 1990 Penguins. They collapsed down the stretch after Lemieux was injured (he came back for the last game of the season). In their last 13 games they had 1 win, 9 losses and 3 ties - and still only missed the playoffs by one point. They were 6th in the conference as late as March 4th, 1990.

Wasn't that when they needed to win the final game of the regular season but lost it in overtime or something?
