As a fellow manlet, I love seeing what Caufield is doing. Great to see that you can be an elite player without having to be a pituitary freak like some other leagues. That said, I really want to see a midget fight between Caufield and Debrincat the next time the Habs and Sens meet. Not going to happen, but a man can dream.
Manlets can only dream of 50 goals.

Think of the best shooters
Ovechkin, Kovalchuk, Matthews, Heatley, Draisaitl all 6"2+

Shortest 50 goal scorer in the last 15 years is Crosby who is 5'11.

Avs were one of the worst teams ever in 2017 and after Mack stepped it up he carried them to the playoffs and changed the whole culture, thats a superstar. He was walking people EVERY night and he can but he has teammates now
If you're a hart finalist 3x in 4 seasons, you're a superstar. Plain and simple

Dionne was 5"8 and one of the most prolific scorer in the history of the NHL in a much more physical and dirty era. Scored 50+ six time.

Yzerman five time and he was under 6"0. Guy Lafleur was barely 6"0

Bure was 5"10 on a good day.

Both Hull are 5"10

What have you done lately for me isnt relevant in the big picture, His height won't affect his ability to score goals.

Back on 50g pace. Tied for 5th in the league along w/ Suzuki
On pace doesn't mean much. The only player who can actually hit any sort of on pace is McDavid because he's a freak of nature. lol

Yeah this is actually the first time I heard someone argue you have to be tall to score goals. If you look at the greatest scorers of all time 6 feet or under:

1. Gretzky 6'0
2. Howe 6'0
5. Hull 5'11
6. Dionne 5'8
7. Esposito 6'0
8. Gartner 6'0
10. Yzerman 5'10
12. Selanne 6'0
16. Sakic 5'11
18. Hull 5'10
19. Cicarelli 5'10
20. Kurri 6'0
21. Recchi 5'10
22. Bossy 6'0 (highest GPG)

And others who don't rank as high due to lower GP like Maurice Richard was 5'10 and Stan Mikta 5'9

So yeah, there doesn't seem to be any correlation. I'm also going to go ahead and assume half if not more of those 6'0 are rounded up.

Wow Habs need a 7 ft player. Maybe if we get one he'll have a shot at 70 goals.
Is that's how it's done?:lol:

Let's not get ahead of ourselves here, it sounds a bit like the Toronto goalies thread. With that said, Caufield has the skill and attitude to be a star.

Interesting stat. Maybe the times are changing? A manlet can hope…

superstar is not the right word but he is closing in on Hughes to be the top goal scorer in the 2019 draft only 12 goals back now and he has played something like 90 less games and he's passed Zegras

Hes much better than Debrincat. Literally two very different players, the only thing they have in common is that they can score goals.
You're underrating Debrincat, let's see Caufield do what Debrincat has done twice already before declaring him much better. Which is score 40 goals.

CC is 5'9" and 162 lbs he isn't even close to any of the guys you listed in terms of being a physical specimen.

Oh ok 5"9 is far from 5"10? Eh

He is 5"7 and 174lbs btw.

Nobody talk about it but he is hella disciplined too. Never takes any penalty.

Caufield is 5.7 but the only thing he knows is scoring goal. What a sniper. Can't believe 15 teams skipped on him during his draft year.
