A record even Gretzky couldn't break

On this day 31 years ago, Maple Leafs' captain Darryl Sittler scored six goals and was credited with four assists in an 11-4 Toronto win over the Bruins. Ten points in a game set a record that still stands today, miraculously surviving the Gretzky/Lemieux years. The '75-'76 season was a breakthrough year for Sittler - it was his first year as team captain, he became the first Maple Leaf to reach 100 points in a season, and later that summer he scored the winning goal in overtime to lead Team Canada over the Czechs in the final of the inaugural Canada Cup.
