MIKE BOSSY

Hockey Hall-of-Famer

Drafted 15th overall in the 1977 NHL Entry Draft by the New York Islanders, Mike Bossy began a stellar ten-year career whereby he established himself as one of the most talented snipers the game has ever seen. The “Boss” amassed 573 goals and 553 assists for a total of 1,126 points in only 752 games, averaging nearly 1.5 points per game.

In a career that began as the NHL’s Rookie of the Year, Bossy showcased his consistency with a record nine consecutive 50-plus-goal seasons. Bossy scored the Stanley Cup winning goals two years in a row, the only player in NHL history to have done so. He also collected numerous trophies and was named as a first team All-Star five times and a second team All-Star three times in his career, winning the MVP in the 1982 All-Star game. He was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame, and his number, 22, was retired and will never be worn by another New York Islander.

In October 2006, Bossy was named Executive Director of Corporate Relations with the New York Islanders.
