Which NHL player scored 50 goals in 50 games in 1992? Brett Hull did it for the St. Louis Blues.

Hull reached the mark on January 28, 1992, scoring his 50th goal in the Blues’ 50th team game of the 1991–92 season. He scored against Los Angeles Kings goaltender Kelly Hrudey in a game that ended in a 3–3 tie. Hull finished that season with 70 goals in 73 games.

The wording can cause confusion because Hull also achieved the feat during the previous season. In 1990–91, he scored his 50th goal in the Blues’ 49th game, officially recording 50 goals in 49 games. Thus, Brett Hull accomplished an official 50-in-50 twice.

The achievement refers to a player scoring 50 goals within his team’s first 50 games, not necessarily the player’s own first 50 appearances. Wayne Gretzky achieved it three times, while Hull is one of only a small group of players to reach the official standard.
