There were 21 players who put up 80+ points this season.
Last season there were 7. So, if I'm a math major, that's 3x the players getting 80+.
Likewise, there were 8 40+ goals scorers this season. Last season, there were 3.
There were 22 30-39 goal getters in 16/17, compared to 23 in 17/18, a hair more.
There were 69 20-29 goal scorers in 16/17, compared to 85 20-29 goals 17/18. That's a good difference.
All together, scoring and point getting was up.
What happened? More talent? Better forwards? Game is changing? Rules and Refs?
