FeaturedNational Hockey League (NHL)

Number of years since each NHL team has had a 30/40/50+ Goal Scorer (Visual Table)

A very interesting table of stats all thanks in part to reddit user jamaicancovfefe:

“The idea for this came after I realized that the Sens haven’t had a player score 30 or more goals since 2011-12, and wondering if that was the longest drought in the league. Eventually, I decided to expand and find out how many seasons it has been for every NHL team since a player had recorded 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80 and 90 goals in a single year.”

These stats are for goals scored in a single season with one franchise (including relocations). If a player scored 30+ goals for two different teams, they were not counted here.

Lastly, numbers/dashes with asterisks indicate that the team has the longest drought for that specific number of goals in a season.

Founder, Editor-in-Chief, & CEO at Hooked on Hockey Magazine
I grew up playing Ball and Roller Hockey day and night somewhat religiously throughout elementary and middle school. The two don't compare though when I lace up the skates and hit the ice. I live and breathe hockey beyond the perspective of "it's just a game" and I will gladly talk hockey for hours with anyone. Hockey is more than just a lifestyle, it's a culture of passionate people who make memories every time the puck is dropped. Hockey has not only helped me get through some of the hardest times in life but has created some of the best memories to date. Want to talk hockey with me? Shoot me an email: iburdetskiy@hookedonhockey.com and let's talk some hockey!
