Fair enough. To me its more about the context of the numbers they put up since Kucherov's performance was an art ross win over prime McDavid. He had a great team around him to be fair but he still outscored the next closest player by 30 points. Draisaitl was no slouch this season by any means though
Yeah I can buy the outscoring McDavid line of argument for 2019 Kucherov>2023 Draisaitl. Draisaitl's best season for me is 2019-20 anyway where he did the same, dragged the Oilers to playoffs despite McDavid injuries+underperformance, and somehow made Kailer Yamamoto a near PPG player.
Lol The guy just said 21/22 year old McDavid was prime McDavid lol.. then fails to mention Leon Draisaitl had 110 points in like 71 games I. The year he finished ahead of 23 year old McDavid...
There's a difference between prime and peak... He literally had just won 2 art rosses in a row and had 116 points in 78 games. And McDavid was injured the next season and basically had the exact same ppg regardless.
Any way you look at it. Draisaitls season was more impressive than Kucherovs. More goals. Not sure what your point is ? McDavid can outscore anyone anytime if he wanted to. Doesn't matter Kucherov "outscored" a kid who still had 116 points in just 78 games with an absolute horseshit lineup.
Whatever you say, I've made my point multiple times in this thread already. I'm entitled to my opinion and so are you.
Maroon put up similar point totals in Anaheim when he played with Getzlaf and Perry. I would think most 3rd line players could put up 40 points if they get to play on the first line all year no?
