I've never seen Recchi play live, which is a horrible error on my part. You're right: this has got to be his last year. Because of the way the hall of fame works for hockey I would imagine that he would be a hall of famer, but you never really hear him described that way. Certainly when he retires it's not going to capture the evening's broadcast on SportsCenter, but maybe it's different in Canada.
Every once in a while I see something like the Sabres putting up six goals in one period. Also, it was funny to see Ruff get Hitchcock fired because his team dropped like 14 goals on the Flyers, when Hitchcock was the guy coaching the Stars whe "NO GOAL" happened. (If Hitchcock had any sort of honor about him he brings his guys to the bench until they review that. I'm not a big Sabres fan and they still had to win both that game and the next one, but that was a sham.)
