Evgeni Malkin is leading the league in scoring at 38

[Master P]

Wow a generational player with another generational player on his roster is leading the league in points after a whole week of play. This isn't newsworthy let alone thread worthy for at least a few more weeks if not months.

Careful, the word "generational" can get you shot around these parts.

Why do people make this kind of mistake when it's pretty common in hockey terms that the "scoring title" is the leading point getter and not the leading goal scorer?

If someone says Kucherov lead the league in scoring last year, how many people are going to be confused because it says Auston Matthews won the Rocket?

exactly what I meant, scored 38 points

After 9 games this season:

2 goals, 9 assists for 11 points and a -5


After 9 games last season:

5 goals and 6 assists for 11 points and a -4

Means nothing after few games. I remember many years back Klingberg was scoring leader after ten games or so.

4 pointless games in a row torpedoed that start real quick.
