[puckhead]

John-Michael Liles set the NHL record for:
the longest assist streak from the start of the season, by a defenseman. (9)



and now you know.

Really?....sounds like it could be more...that's not really one of those records that you would wonder about too much though....congrats though...

When you look at Mike Green's goal scoring streak, you would think the assist streak would be more. Guys like Lidstrom, Coffey, Bourque, Leetch all put up some sinister numbers.

Pretty good for a kid from Indiana...He sure can skate.

/Interesting to note that both Liles and Henrik Sedin have 0 goals and 11 assists so far this season...

yes, it is surprising that none of those cats never put up a 15 gamer out of the gates.
I wonder what the record is NOT from the start of the season?


google fu: 28 games by Paul Coffey (85-86)
