Nostrils was never close to being as good as McDavid and never will be. Get over it.
McDavid heating up, what are odds on 150 points this season?

HFBoards might crash for weeks if that happensWell said man. Hopefully both teams meet in the finals so those same fans really go off.

I don't even know what that means. He gets hacked, slashed and interfered with multiple times a game when he goes through the neutral zone and the refs rarely call squat. If they actually did, EDM would get 10 PP's a game. lol
what? At one point it was 5 to 1 for the Leafs in PP's. How are you complaining about the refs? lol. Weird.
But anyways back on track because the Leafs fan decided to hijack the thread. It seems like if he can continue his pace 150 is quite doable. I'd love to see him hit 160 though. That would be even more special (not that 150 wouldn't be also lol).
Will be nice to see McDavid finally show Draisaitl and kucherov who's the boss after finally surpassing their best career totals next game. Hopefully all Kucherov and Draisaitl fans man up and apologize for ever suggesting kucherov and draisaitl was on the same level as Mcdavid!
I think denigrating other players is unnecessary.
McDavid is generational greatness. Will end up one of the greatest to ever do it. Just enjoy it!

Also moved into the top 25 in active point leaders in the NHL. Just passed Paul Stastny, handful of points behind Burns, Benn, and Carter. Don't think he'll leapfrog anyone else this season unless he goes off for like 50 points and Marchand goes ice cold. 26 career points back of Marchand.

That's definitely terrific scoring at a consistent level. Then again, he gets compared to The Great One, who came to the league by storm, leading the league in points (and assists) every single year for his first eight seasons (= the point in time of their respective careers where McDavid is now). Fair or unfair comparison? It is what it is. Good on McDavid for not caving in under the pressure and endless comparisons.
Exceeding Kucherov's (or any active player's for that matter) personal best is a significant detail in McDavid's legacy for sure, leaves so many fewer buts for the naysayers.

You're so butthurt you came to de-rail a McDavid thread, sorry Matthews is having a bad year bud.

21 points in 14 games seems very doable. Especially with a number of Pacific games remaining.

With the last couple games including tonight he has passed Robitaille, Thornton, Gilmour, Mogilny and Kucherov. Tied now with Messier for the fourth best Oiler peak season. He’s now got 21 more to pass for third all time. Should pass quite a few in the next five games as 14 sit between 130 and 139. Also he is tied for the 50th best individual scoring season of all time and will be top 25 if he hits 139 points.

its insane that it's not out of the realm of possibility for McDavid to hit 1000 career pts by the end of next season despite time lost to COVID and missing half a season

Oh man, reading pages 1, 2, 3 in this thread - some of you should be absolutely ashamed of your awful takes.
This thread is barely 3 months old, and wow.

150 this season and 150 next season and he hits 1000 points at 27 years old. The only other player who would have done that at that age is Gretzky. Insane if that happens especially being in the modern era, cap league.

Most on this forum have very little imagination for what could be. They couldn’t see the possibility of 100+ points in the shortened COVID season, they couldn’t imagine McDavid winning the Rocket in the season following Matthews scoring 60 goals, and even 140 points, let alone 150, was an unfathomable benchmark to them.
This is all a part of McDavid remolding the Big Four into a new Big Five. He’s doing things most thought impossible in this day and age.
It won’t be long before a majority of the doubters and haters claim how much of an honor it was to have seen him play.
How about now??

Not to question the model, but by looking at the graph it seems to underestimate the value of current results. By this I mean your percentages were so low 3 weeks ago even when his current trends at that time for the season were putting him on pace to hit these numbers. Obviously no model is perfect, but if you're seeing massive spikes in data over a short period it means that it could probably use some fine tuning (and yes, I realize that 13 goals in 10 games and all the recent points play a big role in that too).

Thread MVP Jordan Belfort last posted on December 22. At the time he was still adamant that McDavid would slow down.

I must admit, he was right. McDavid slowed down.

Draisaitl has 15 goals in his last 15 games and now sits at 44 goals.
It must have been awhile when two teammates both hit 50 goals in the same season.
