Best Gretzky ever did was 8 points in a game....but did it like 4 times...

That's another thing about Gretzky that's always amazed me. Not only did he set a lot of records, but he reached a lot of amazing scoring totals multiple times in his career. He's the only NHL player ever to score 200 points in a season, for example, and he's done it FOUR TIMES.

I still remember watching the game where Gretzky scored 5 goals in the Oilers’ 39th game of the season to get to 50. that’s 50 goals in 39 games. The previous benchmark for awesomeness was the extremely rare feat of 50 goals in 50 games.
