RICHMOND, Va. -- Nothing we’ve seen, or will ever see again, compares to Mario Lemieux’s momentous, spectacular five goals/five ways feat 30 years ago on the last day of 1988. It was the iconic Mario moment, whose flair for the dramatic nearly equaled his unparalleled athleticism. Many players in the history of the league have scored five goals in a game … but none of them could, or will ever, do it with the panache of Le Magnifique!
