On February 7th in 1976,
Darryl Sittler of the
Toronto Maple Leafs collected 10 points (6G, 4A) on 10 shots in a single NHL game against goalie
David Reece, including
hat tricks in the both second and third periods,
en route to an 11-4 win over
Adams division rival
Boston Bruins.
The performance broke the
previous single game point record of eight originally set by
Maurice Richard in 1944. Sittler's record survived the
Gretzky and
Lemieux era and stands to this day. "
Wrong Place at the Wrong Time" Reece never played another game in the
NHL.
That's today in NHL history.
