Details
Dickie Moore put up his record breaking 96 points during the 1958-59 season. Previously, the record belonged to Gordie Howe of the Detroit Red Wings with 95 points in 1952-53. Bobby Hull of the Chicago Blackhawks would break Moore’s record with 97 points in 1965-66. Stan Mikita would tie Hull the following season.
His six point game against the Boston Bruins on March 25, 1954 still ranks him in a tie for sixth all-time. The record belongs to Mario Lemieux of the Pittsburgh Penguins and Patrik Sundstrom of the New York Devils who both put up eight point performances in the post season.
March 25, 1954 saw the second game of a four game sweep over the Bruins in the 1953-54 Stanley Cup semi-final. Montreal won handily, 8-1 at the Forum. Peppering Boston goalie Jim Henry, Jean Beliveau and Bernie Geoffrion weren’t far behind Moore, each putting in five point nights. It was quite the feat for young Dickie who had only managed to appear in 13 games for the Canadiens during the regular season.
Dickie’s two Art Ross Trophy wins and two First Team All-Star selections would be it for his NHL career. He would get a Second Team All-Star nod in 1960-61. His numbers would slide after his record setting 1958-59 season and his career was limited to 719 regular season and 135 playoff games between 1951-52 and 1967-68 with the Habs, Toronto Maple Leafs and St. Louis Blues. Still, he was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1974.
