490

is where he's currently at.
My guess is he breaks 500 this season and I hope he does it in Chicago.
Last "big" milestone goal I saw in person was Bondra's 500th at the UC (which was on December 22, 2006).

Where does Hossa get #500?

Dunno, but Ottawa, for or against, would be cool.

Hossa's sitting on four goals this season, and the 22 he scored last year was the lowest mark of his career in a non-strike season since his rookie year.

So I think he gets it this year. I say he does it on Sunday, March 6 against the Red Wings.

At his current pace, he's going to break 500 on the last day of the season.

His 5.5 shot percentage is by far the lowest of his career, and well below the career average of 12.3%. Wonder if that's due for a fierce market correction in the near future.

You may be correct, DMelt.
I think he was playing hurt for most of the first part of the season, basically leaving Toews as the only one with star power on that line.
The way this team divulges information, we may never find out until 2020 if he was indeed playing less than 75%.

I love the Hoss. He is having trouble scoring goals for sure but he never stops playing on both sides of the ice.

496.
Looks like a small surge may get him crossing over to 500 sooner than later.
