For the Pittsburgh Penguins, and likely the entire league, the days of the 200-point seasons are long behind us. In realty, even the days of the 125-point seasons are long behind us. The last NHL player to score more than 125 points in a single season was Jaromir Jagr with the in 1998-99. Since 2000, there have been only ten instances of an NHL player scoring more than 110 points. These individual seasons with more than 110 points were compiled by only seven players that are listed below.
Jaromir Jagr – 2000-01/2005-06
Joe Sakic – 2000-01
Joe Thornton – 2005-06/2006-07
Sidney Crosby – 2006-07
Alex Ovechkin – 2007-08/2008-09
Evgeni Malkin – 2008-09
Henrik Sedin – 2009-10
Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin each recorded a 109-point season along the way as well, but it’s not hard to see that NHL scoring is down.
