    Who was the second NHLer to score 50 goals in a season?

    Question #63373. Asked by bigponder. (Mar 11 06 6:02 PM)

    		Bernie "Boom Boom" Geoffrion

    Before Hull, only twice had players scored 50 goals in a season (Rocket Richard in 1944-45 and Boom Boom Geoffrion in 1960-61). The next four names in the NHL's chronological list of 50-goal scorers in its Official Guide & Record Book are Bobby Hull, Bobby Hull, Bobby Hull and Bobby Hull. (There also was a fifth 50-goal season for Hull in 1971-72.) Not until the seventies, after expansion and longer schedules, did scoring 50 goals become something other than a rarity.

    		Even as a Leaf fan, I have to admit the Boomer, who died today of stomach cancer, was a great one.
