Nelson NYI & Bergeron Bos both with 4 goals on the same night

Would imagine it hasn't happened in the 2000's

2005 Sabres vs Ottawa
Twodifferent Ottawa players(Alfredsson and Havlat) had 4 goals each

Cool...thanks. That slipped my mind but now I remember watching those highlights over and over on NHL Tonight or some similar show.

Mario scored 5 and Tkachuk 4 in different games on March 26, 1996. It appears thats the last time before 2005. This is nearly as rare as I thought.

Wayne Gretzky's second five-goal game, in December 1981, also marked his achievement of the NHL's fastest 50 goals in 50 games, when he scored five goals in his 39th game of the season.


Ah, the good old daze,eh?
