FIGURES
1,755
Number of regular-season points, tops in franchise history and the
sixth-highest total in NHL history.
692
Number of regular-season goals scored, the eighth-best mark alltime and the
most by any player with one team.
3
Players who have won an Olympic gold medal and the Stanley Cup in the same
season. Yzerman, along with Red Wings teammate Brendan Shanahan (left), won
gold for Canada in Salt Lake City and then defeated the Carolina Hurricanes in
the 2002 Stanley Cup finals. (Ken Morrow of the U.S. team and the New York
Islanders also accomplished this double, in 1980.)
20
Number of seasons as the Red Wings' captain, an NHL record for most seasons as
the captain of one team.
170×100
Size, in feet, of an Yzerman mural painted on Detroit's Cadillac Tower in 2003.
The artist had to add scars to the player's face after passersby complained the
original was "too pretty." The mural was painted over in April
2005.
185
Number of points Yzerman had in the playoffs, a team record.
14
Yzerman's golf handicap, a number he hopes to lower in retirement.
10
Number of NHL All-Star Games to which Yzerman has been selected.
1,063
Yzerman's regular-season assists, which is seventh-best alltime in the NHL.
