Auston Matthews 69 goals in 81 games, most goals scored since Lemieux in 1995-96

Jesus f***ing Christ!

 

[Spring in Fialta]

You guys remember when Sens fans argued to the death that teams would take Stutzle because of their respective contracts?

What a time.

 

[Orfieus]

auston matthews with 2 back to back hat tricks this year is the first time since wayne gretzky in 83-84

The headline of "Matthews still on pace for a 120 goals" after starting the season with 2 hat tricks was really funny to see

 

[Matt24]

Six hat trick opponents:

Montreal
Minnesota
Buffalo
Calgary
Philadelphia
Anaheim

Impressive nonetheless. Not many hat tricks across the league let alone multiple in one season.

Yes, just like a lot of Judge’s HR’s in his 62 HR season were off bad pitchers. Who cares?

 

[Filthy Dangles]

Seems much more impressive in todays game. Though I don't know goals/game played for 92/93 and 23/24.

It is

3.63 in ‘93
3.10 in ‘24

Teams averaged half a goal more per game back then, they also played 84 games back in ‘93

Ah, a charter member of the Finnish Five

You shouldn’t be allowed to post in Matthews threads unless you know who PsychoDad is

Great goal scorers light up weak teams?

You gotta ask the HF Boards panel

16 game streaks are not good teams beating lower teams. Just soft competition. Don't know if that same logic applies to goals

92/93: 3.63
23/24: 3.10

 

[Voodoo Child]

Youch- five points.

Where’s Zegras? Getting a bikini wax?

 

[Pablo El Perro]

No 50 in 50?

 

[Canadiens Ghost]

Pretty good run by Matthews,
but he is no Slafkovsky.

But seriously, feels more impressive than Ovi's best season regardless of era.

 

[Kennedys]

This is unreal. He's a goals scoring machine. On pace for 76

 

[Pablo El Perro]

He is winning the Rocket, Hart and Ted Lindsay.

Be more ambitious, who's winning the Smythe?

 

[Rants Mulliniks]

What a time.

Needs another goal to have as many goals as Stutzle has points.

 

[Pablo El Perro]

Bump that.

75.

No 50 in 50?

been there done it. 51 in 50, two seasons ago.

 

[Rants Mulliniks]

Do it in the playoffs Matthews, then I'll be impressed

We’d all be impressed with 48 playoff goals.

 

[MessierII]

He’s going absolutely nuts

 

[Pablo El Perro]

That's not how Richard did it

 

[Spring in Fialta]

Needs another goal to have as many goals as Stutzle has points.

Wahhhh but he's only 21 Waaahhh

 

[BusQuets]

That's the thing, he is. Very good defensively.

He's not but he is great pure goalscorer. Don't compare him to mackinnon,barkov and mcdavid though.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Being wrong with confidence. Good for you.

 

[The Moose]

I think Matthews will go the rest of the season without scoring another goal. An epic slump for the record books.

Pace, but you knew what I meant
