Both are disappointing a bit, I will update the thread title.
22 points in 10 games.
So then for McDavid to be better than Gretzky he needs to top 149 points in 64 games.The Oilers currently lead the NHL with 45 goals in ten games. They're scoring at exactly the same pace as the 1987-88 Oilers, which was Gretzky's last season in Edmonton.

I meant because the scoring of the teams was the same.Lol era adjusted that’s like 300 points, mind boggling how good 97 is.
You kind of missed the point. The Oilers so far this year are scoring goals at exactly the same rate as the 1987-88 Oilers.Lol era adjusted 149 now is like 300 points back then, mind boggling how good 97 is.
McDavid & Draisaitl the best duo since peak Crosby & Malkin.

Lost in all of this is that McDavid is on an 18 game point streak dating back to last year's regular season.
100 points in his last 49 games
I'd go further and say Lemieux/Jagr
200 would be out of this f***ing world. I would kill to see it happen and all hockey fans should feel the same, regardless of the team they cheer for.If he scores above 150 (which hasn't been done since Mario in 95-96) there would have to be a legitimate argument of it being the greatest season ever.
Competition has increased greatly since that time, and to be the first to score 150+ in 25 years, that would be historical.
I'm still hoping for 200 because it would cement his legacy, like absolutely INSANE, we are even mentioning 150+ 170+.
