Hull Reaches 700

02.11.2003 | Author: Steven Ovadia | Posted in Red Wings

There actually was other hockey news yesterday (see above). Brett Hull finally got his 700th regular season goal. And in true Brett Hull form, the goal wasn’t some sort of screened, trickle-in, banked-off-some-guy’s-skates goal. Nope. This was a patented Brett Hull slapshot, with Hull shooting from the patented limbo position, his back almost parallel to the ice.
Only five other NHL players have reached 700 goals: Wayne Gretzky (894), Gordie Howe (801), Marcel Dionne (731), Phil Esposito (717) and Mike Gartner (708).
And in case you’re interested, the Wings beat San Jose 5-4.
