The list of NHL players who scored 50 or more goals in a season

Achieving 50 goals in one season is one of the most important indicators for scorers in the NHL. By the beginning of the 2014/15 season, players managed to score more than 50 goals in one regular season 191 times. This result was achieved by 90 hockey players from 29 different teams. In the 1944/45 season, Maurice Richard became the first player to score 50 goals in one season. Bernie Geoffrion repeated this success 16 years later, in the 1960/61 season .
