Not only did Steve Shutt lead the entire league in goal-scoring in 1976-77, with a career-high 60 goals in 80 games, but he was also the first left-winger in NHL history to score 60 goals in a season.
He still holds the Canadiens record for goals in a season, tied with Hall of Fame teammate Guy Lafleur. Shutt would go on to score 424 goals during his career, not to mention an additional 50 goals in postseason play.
