One hit wonders

[Axeman33]

Depends on what you call a hit (career high of 51 points in his last full season, one big playoff prior), but...Chris Kontos may count.

Here's my one hit wonder in music:

Same for John Druce?

Andrew McBain - Wpg Jets 80's

Dexy's Midnight Runners - Come on Eileen ( from the same era)

Jose Theodore was MVP once and although he spent several years as #1 he never came close to that level again.

Geez, I had forgotten about him. Might not be a better example when it comes to tenders.

Love the old school names. He had a 37 goal season, wow

I ended up listening to this at work. Much appreciated.

Jacques Richard. Never heard of him? He played 556 games in the NHL with Atlanta (Flames that is), Buffalo and the Quebec Nordiques. In 1980-81, he scored 103 points while with Quebec ( 52 - 51 - 103 ) which ended up representing almost a third of his ten year career total points of 347.

His picture is next to Webster's definition of "one hit wonder".

I'm always blown away by the number of "100" point guys from the 1980s and 90s. I don't have the numbers in front of me but it was something like 10 or 15 guys every year above 100. Would have been a joy to watch

Cheechooo Train is the poster boy IMO.

Other guys: Gionta is a great one... Blake and Frolov.

Oh Cheechoo. Guys like him and Setoguchi only work to affirm the under-appreciated greatness of Joe Thornton

Oh we're doing music too? Greatest one hit wonder ever has to be this one

Drunken college girls everywhere are still filling the dance floor for this one despite not having even been born when it was released

Quick, name another song by Barry McGuire...

[Darren_Kennedy]

haha, loving these song choices.

[Axeman33]

Every time I hear One Hit Wonders, my first choice is always "Come On Eileen" but this one is a close 2nd.

I don't think I've ever even heard of Blain Lacher. Well done

I can remember humming Unbelievable's lyrics one summer on a constant loop.

Saw this one today.

Dmitri Kvartalnov. In 1992-93, he had 30 goals and 72 points in 73 games for Boston. The next season, he had 19 points in 39 games, and was sent to the AHL. He never played another NHL game (went to play overseas the next season).
