The 11th player in NHL history to score 500 goals, Mike Bossy reached the milestone in style. Facing Boston in his 647th regular season on January 2, 1986, Bossy scored his 499th goal late in the third period to give New York the lead before putting his 500th into an empty net to seal a 7-5 win for the Islanders. Bossy became the fastest player to reach 500 goals, shattering Phil Esposito's previous record of 803 games. Bossy's mark remains the third-fastest of all-time behind only Wayne Gretzky (575) and Mario Lemieux (605). This framed montage features an original ticket stub from the game at the Nassau Coliseum and a wirephoto of Bossy's 500th goal, along with newspaper clippings and a handwritten statistical summary of the game, all displayed in a white and black matte and mounted in a 16 1/4" x 20" black frame.
