Twenty years ago today, Wayne Gretzky became the NHL's All-Time leading scorer when he recorded point No. 1,851 in his amazing career. He did in the final minutes of a game in Edmonton against the team he won four Stanley Cups with.
Gretzky would finish his career with 894 goals, 1,963 assists and 2,857 points. Amazingly, if you take away all of his goals and just look at his assists, he would still be the NHL's All-Tme leading scorer.
His former Edmonton teammate, Mark Messier, is now the No. 2 player on the points list with 1,887.
