Sam Reinhart is the first Florida Panthers player in history to score 60 goals in a season, including playoffs. Pavel Bure had two seasons in Florida where he scored 59. Reinhart picked the right time for a career year because he's going into free agency this summer. Panthers coach Paul Maurice raves about his top goalscorer.
Ottawa Senators goaltender Joonas Korpisalo stops a shot on goal by Florida Panthers center Sam Reinhart during the third period of an NHL hockey game, Tuesday, April 9, 2024, in Sunrise, Fla. Florida Panthers center Sam Reinhart attempts a shot at Tampa Bay Lightning goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy during the first period of Game 1 of the first-round of an NHL Stanley Cup Playoff series, Sunday, April 21, 2024, in Sunrise, Fla.
In fact, the 28-year-old Reinhart is one of only five players to ever put up those numbers. The others: Lemieux, Jari Kurri , Wayne Gretzky and Mike Bossy. All four are in the Hall of Fame. He played all 82 games , led the league with 27 power-play tallies and had 11 game-winning goals. It’s not like his goal barrage came out of nowhere: Reinhart had scored at least 20 in seven of his first eight NHL seasons, plus had 33 and 31 goals, respectively, in his first two seasons with the Panthers.
Of the 45 that have hit the 60-goal mark in a season, 21 are already in the Hall of Fame and several others — Jagr, Alex Ovechkin, Steven Stamkos, Connor McDavid among them — seem pretty certain to be headed there once eligible. Clearly, the 60 Club is rare air, and Reinhart now owns some hockey history.
