Played well enough to be 1st star 3 times at home, giving him a platform to speak directly to the Bell centre crowd about how they were gunning for the playoffs. Could have played a part in keeping the team intact, getting his teammate re-signed.

That's actually kind of pathetic for us. I can't believe that's a real stat.
How the heck did Jean Beliveau not do this? Even Maurice Richard (who played in a low game era) has done that for sure. Maybe these guys weren't captain when they did it?
It’s kinda hilarious to look at this list. There’s a bunch of shortened PPG and 59-point seasons among the skilled captains lol
NICK SUZUKI: 14 PTS IN 8 GAMES SINCE THE 4 NATIONS CUP BREAK
He's on pace to break his career high for a 4th (really 5th) consecutive year.
That's kinda crazy imo

I just stopped by to tell you all once again, like I have been saying for a few years at this point, that Nick Suzuki is a bonafide first line NHL centre.
It is not a surprise that as our teams talent level has risen, his point totals have followed. We are lucky to have stolen him in that trade and lucky that they rejected who we had actually asked for at the time.

Suzuki has already risen to Price-levels of expectations (for better or worse) because he's so consistent so we kind of take him for granted. Once the 2C situation is sorted (I trust KH will have a proper one by next season) we are going to be spoiled with a supported Suzuki. We can already see the impact of Evans freeing Suzuki up for more offensive opportunities but with a 2C too the team is going to benefit greatly.
With 69 points in 65 games a +11 and only 6 PIM This dude is a very very serious candidate for The Lady Byng Trophy!
I put him ahead of Slavin at this point.

There were some wonderful threads in the poll section over the past few years.
Suzuki vs Barzal
Suzuki vs Cozens
Suzuki vs EP
Suzuki vs Stutzle - this one is still up in the air but I'll take our guy.
I'm sure theres more.

For sure he is. Imo, he is a top 10 Center in the NHL right now and I expect nothing less than a 90 points season next year. This year if he can finish between 80 an 90 it would be amazing for the Habs.
The Habs have 16 games remaining so it make those numbers more difficult to accomplish
Ah yes. I forgot I was stupid. Thank you for the reminder though.
He's a number one center.. last one we had was Koivu but he never had the talent of Caufield on his wing for most of his career, only really happened later when the physical toll on his body was there.
Cozens… man what happened to that guy? Got punched in the face and just went away.
It will be great if HuGo can construct that 2nd line. Need that 2c, and I'm hoping Demidov and Laine have chemistry.
That 2 c is a massive hole currently and one that must be addressed.
