Gordie Howe was never consulted the longest duration of the natural scorer of the goals of the original six days and beyond, regardless of raw statistics.
Maurice Richard was, so the trophy granted to the top scorer of the league is called Rocket Richard Trophy.
Sometimes, only the NHL cannot ruin it, although the fact that the trophy granted to the best defender of the League is after James Norris Mr., an owner who at some point had a financial interest in the four US teams in the 50s, remains Prepesterer.
The point, thought, is that during the last quarter of the century, people would never have identified Wayne Gretzky as the greatest natural goals in the history of the NHL.
