January 30, 1973:
Jim Harrison of the WHA’s Alberta Oilers becomes the first player in the modern era to score 10 points in a big-league game, leading to an 11-3 blowout of the New York Raiders at the Edmonton Gardens. Harrison’s three goals and seven assists break the WHA single-game points record of seven established by Danny Lawson of Philadelphia earlier this season and the NHL standard of eight set by Montreal Canadiens Rocket Richard (1944 ) and Bert Olmstead (1954).
