Player Discussion David Pastrnak II

[KillerMillerTime]

It's not ignoring it to point out that the only reason Kucherov is ahead this year is because of teammates. Right now they are 15 points apart, not 20. 119 vs 104

- at ES Pastrnak is outscoring him 81 to 75
- Kucherov has a 25 point advantage on the PP
- Kucherov spends his PP time on the ice with Point, Hedman and Guentzel
- Pastrnak spends his PP time on the ice with Lindholm, Lohrei and Zacha.

So a 40/50 goal, 90 point center, an 80 point perennial Norris candidate and a 40 goal PPG C/W vs 2 50 point centers and a 2nd year D.

To be clear, the reason Pastrnak wont crack the Top 3 in MVP voting this year is the Bruin's record, plain and simple.

I said Kucherov has played 5 fewer games so his point production adjusted for # of games would put him 20 points up on Pastrnak. I never said he was actually 20 points up.

Further you are doing the same thing the other guy did. You absolutely can't ignore his PP Production. He sets up lots of those PP Goals with great plays.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with #88 being 4\5 in balloting.

Amazing to be leading the league in even strength pts on the team that's 28th in the league in goals scored. B A N A N A S

Only 5 players in the whole league have more than 70 pts at even strength - and he's got 81.

Just an absolute incredible talent. A one-man show by default in a team sport

Look what hes done for Geekie career, and the last handful of games he's made Lindholm look like a top 6 player.

If Pasta wasn't a member of the Boston Bruins Don Sweeney would of been "Feathered and tarred" long ago!

Driver of the best line in hockey playing without best 2 defenseman & getting opposition top defensive players

The only other comparable year I’ve seen since Esposito was Oates crazy year

Really huge year for him - it's so good to see a guy who's an elite talent still find new ways to grow and contribute.
