Steve Shutt was one of the NHL’s most consistent and lethal goal scorers during the 1970s. A key member of the Montreal Canadiens dynasty, Shutt was known for his quick release, smooth skating, and ability to find open ice. He thrived playing alongside legends like Guy Lafleur and Jacques Lemaire, forming one of the most feared lines in hockey.

Shutt’s best season came in 1976–77, when he scored 60 goals — a record for a left winger at the time. He helped lead the Canadiens to five Stanley Cup championships during his tenure. Shutt’s instincts around the net and ability to finish plays made him a valuable asset during Montreal’s most dominant years.
