#5 Phil Esposito
(From Causeway Crowd’s Brandon Share-Cohen)
When discussing best goal scorers in the history of the NHL, Phil Esposito’s name is a lock to come up in discussion. Having won the Hart Trophy twice, as well as five Art Ross trophies, and eight consecutive All Star honors as a member of the Boston Bruins, it’s no wonder why either. Phil Esposito led the Bruins in points five time sin his career, and ranks third all-time in points among the Bruins with 1012 points. He also ranks second in goals with 459, and ranks first in points-per-game with 1.62. Esposito is securely sitting in the 10th position for all-time points scored in NHL history, which made his Hall of Fame induction in 1984 a surprise to absolutely no one. Phil Esposito was an integral piece of their two Stanley Cups in 1970 and 1972.
