Mike Bossy Motivational Speaker Fee | Booking Agent Contact

Michael Bossy was one of the most prolific goal scorers in the history of the National Hockey League (NHL). Born on January 22, 1957, in Montreal, Quebec, Bossy spent his entire NHL career with the New York Islanders, playing from 1977 to 1987. His impact on the game was immediate, as he won the Calder Memorial Trophy in 1978 for being the league's top rookie, setting a then-record for most goals by a rookie with 53. Bossy was a key figure in the Islanders' dynasty, helping the team secure four consecutive Stanley Cup championships from 1980 to 1983, a feat that remains one of the most impressive in NHL history.

Bossy's ability to score goals at an unprecedented rate set him apart from his peers. He led the NHL in goals twice and finished second in goals three other times. His consistency was remarkable, as he became the second player in NHL history to score 50 goals in 50 games, a feat he accomplished in 1981, 36 years after Maurice Richard first did it. Bossy also tied the record for most 50-goal seasons with nine, all of which were consecutive, making him the sole record-holder for the most consecutive 50-goal seasons in NHL history. His offensive prowess was complemented by his sportsmanship, as he won the Lady Byng Trophy three times for combining high-quality play with gentlemanly conduct.

In addition to his regular-season dominance, Bossy was a clutch performer in the playoffs. He is one of only two players to score consecutive Stanley Cup-winning goals, doing so in 1982 and 1983. His ability to deliver in critical moments was further highlighted when he set the record for most game-winning goals in a single playoff series, scoring four in the 1983 Conference Final. Bossy's contributions to the Islanders' success were recognized when he won the Conn Smythe Trophy as the most valuable player in the 1982 Stanley Cup playoffs. His legacy as one of the greatest right wings in NHL history is cemented by his five selections to the NHL's First All-Star Team and three additional selections to the Second All-Star Team.

Bossy's career was cut short due to back injuries, leading to his retirement in 1987. Despite his shortened career, his impact on the game was undeniable. He was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1991, and in 2017, he was named one of the 100 Greatest NHL Players in history. Bossy's legacy as one of the most efficient and consistent goal scorers in NHL history remains intact, and his contributions to the game continue to be celebrated by hockey fans and analysts alike.
