As we rolled on through the month of January, four more players from around the league stepped up to set individual milestones. The first two reached the century mark for total games played, as both Bobby Smith and Dave Taylor joined the exclusive 1000 game club.
And in the realm of setting up goals, 40 year-old veteran Larry Robinson recorded his 750th career assist. While much to our chagrin, young 26 year-old Steve Yzerman notched his 500th apple, against none other than, you guessed it, the Vancouver Canucks. Note to the hockey gods: We know you mean well, but we've had quite enough of being on the receiving end of these 'achievements.' Thank you very much.
