Mike Bossy was a key member of the New York Islanders during their four-year reign as Stanley Cup champions in the early 1980s. He was renowned for his rapid, powerful, and accurate shot, his consistency in scoring goals and his sportsmanlike play.
Bossy was perennially among the league's scoring leaders during his career, and although his career was cut short by injuries, he is still considered one of the greatest goal scorers in the history of the game.
Bossy was drafted by the Islanders in the first round of the 1977 NHL draft. Bossy boldly predicted that he would score 50 goals in his rookie season, which he did by scoring a then-record 53 goals in 1978. Bossy won the Calder Trophy for Rookie of the Year and was named a 2nd Team All-Star.
In 1980-81, he scored 50 goals in the first 50 games of the season, the first to do so since the great Maurice Richard 36 years earlier. Bossy retired in 1987 at the age of 30.
Bossy and Wayne Gretzky are the only players to have scored 50 or more goals for nine seasons. Bossy also had nine consecutive 50 goal seasons, a feat unmatched even today.
Bossy reached the Stanley Cup Finals five times between 1980 and 1984. Bossy earned five 1st Team All-Star selections, one of only four right wings ever to do so. He won the Lady Byng Trophy for gentlemanly play in 1983, 1984 and 1986.
Bossy was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1991. His #22 jersey was retired by the Islanders on March 3, 1992. In 1998, he was ranked # 20 on The Hockey News' list of the 100 Greatest Hockey Players.
