Can Hal Gill Catch Craig Muni?

Yesterday we looked at Sidney Crosby's challenging the goal scoring record for a single NHL playoff season.

There's another Pittsburgh player chasing a goal scoring record. Mind you, this record is a lot more dubious.

This playoff giant defenseman Hal Gill has already moved past Al Pederson, Bob Boughner, Alexei Gusarov, Luke Richardson and Don Awrey on the list of the most playoff games played without scoring a single goal.

At 72 games and counting, Gill now stands second all time in this embarrassing category.

Next on Gill's target list - Craig Muni, the record holder. At 113 games without a tally, Gill will not catch Gill this year.

Gill is trying to score, which is more than Craig Muni could say. Gill is averaging just over a shot per game. Muni, ironically best remembered as a member of the high scoring Edmonton Oilers, only registered 68 shots in the 113 games.
