List of players with eight or more points in an NHL game

This is a list of players who have scored eight or more points in a National Hockey League game. Scoring eight or more points in a single game is considered a great feat, and only 12 players in the history of the league have achieved this accomplishment. The most recent player to do so was Mario Lemieux of the Pittsburgh Penguins, who scored eight points in a playoff game against the Philadelphia Flyers on 25 April 1989.

History

Scoring eight points in a single NHL game is an extremely rare feat, which has only been accomplished 15 times. Only one player, Darryl Sittler, scored more than eight points in a game, setting the NHL record with 10 while playing for the Toronto Maple Leafs in 1976.

Mario Lemieux has the most games with at least eight points, scoring eight points in three separate games. Wayne Gretzky is the only other player to attain the feat more than once.
