Player Prompt:
Well I’m not sure this is a record, but I did want to talk a bit about one of the greatest players of all time in this league: Joe Kurczewski. While he isn’t the greatest scorer out there (though he is certainly up there with 940 points over his career), his playoff performances and his IIHF play are legendary. Since IIHF didn’t keep the greatest records, it’s difficult to determine, but I’d be surprised if there are many that have topped his 176 points in 268 career IIHF games, but I’m pretty certain no one can beat his six gold medals with Team USA and of course to top it off he is also a two time silver medalist. Kurczewski's career in the playoffs was also tremendous and as of now, he is the leading playoff scorer of all time tied with Aaron Wilson in both goals and assists despite playing in the STHS era. He was nominated for two Anton Razov awards and won it in S42 after putting up 10 goals and 15 assists leading the way to a Challenge Cup with the Calgary Dragons. |
