The 10 greatest individual streaks in NHL history
Phil Kessel, iron man? Barring some brutal luck, it won’t be long before we can call him that. ‘The Kessel Run’ sits at 986 consecutive games played following his Vegas Golden Knights’ tilt with the Calgary Flames Tuesday night. He’ll tie Keith Yandle’s record of 989 Monday night at home against the Toronto Maple Leafs and should set a new record of 990 by Tuesday Oct. 25 on the road against the San Jose Sharks.
So the ironman streak has slipped out of the “unbreakable” tier of the most impressive individual streaks in NHL history. Which ones still hold up the best?BreakableThe Kessel Run will surpass 990 and it won’t be long before he’s the first 1,000-game ironman.
The conditions need to be perfect for this to happen, sure. Lalime joined a solid 1996-97 Pittsburgh Penguins team with the league’s leading scorer at the time in Mario Lemieux. But it’s not completely inconceivable that a rookie stopper could get hot after being called up to a contender. Ilya Samsonov had an 11-game winning streak as a rookie in 2019-20, for instance.
Imagine being so good for so long that the PHWA considers you a top-two defenseman in the NHL for 17 years in row. Absolutely staggering. Only one other NHL player even has 17 all-star nods, let alone 17 straight.
