Nikita Kucherov is the clear favorite for the Art Ross Trophy

[EmptyNetAssassin]

Kuch's two assist don't count they are not empty points!

 

[Stammertime91]

2 already. Lol. Hot damn, two primary assists, neither empty net or powerplay. I was told he couldn't do it? Crazy.

Kucherov also accounts for more of his team's total points. He doesn't get to play SJ, the ducks, or AZ as often. Buffalo and MTL look like playoff teams compared to those teams.

im not dismissing kuch's challenges, but that has nothing to do with the points i mentioned.

ryan johansen simply sinks the avs to non playoff status, rants and makar would have to have mvp seasons in their own right to overcome that but that's impossible especially when factoring in nuke and girards absence + leks injury + georgiev being a sieve

Yet one guy is breaking the records for most assist in the league by the best right winger ever and MAckinnon isn't even in that conversation ever for centers.

 

[Nathaniel Skywalker]

This season insane. Maybe 2 100 assist man. 70 goal scorer and 2 140 point players all in close play. Insane

 

[Nathaniel Skywalker]

Plus crosby 1 assist away from 1000. Plus playoff do or die. So much to watch so little tvs

lmfao you're literally just changing the subject, everything else is debateable but im solely focusing on the statement that the avs would be a great team without mack this year.

just only focusing on that argument/statement, its clearly false given the things ive mentioned.

oh no he can he just does it less than some other players.

 

[Stammertime91]

these nuanced, cherry-picked stats people use to discredit players is hilarious.

Who has more points this year? Who has more cups? Who is in the history books?

 

[eviohh26]

2 more points for Kuch. Give this man his Hart.

 

[Rschmitz]

Yeah, Gretzky and Lemieux

Yeah, but some Star Wars Larper keeps saying Kuch doesn't count because of empty net points or something

If Kucherov was Ukrainian or Canadian they would have handed him the HART trophy already. Mack was never the best center in his career. Crosby and McDavid were .MAtthews and Mack are close but would say Mack is better than Matthews. There is no doubt Kucherov is the best winger over the last five years.

 

[Stammertime91]

"oh no he can he just does it less than some other players" multiplier is in the queue

Kucherov coming for McDavid’s 153. Wild

 

[LordZapp]

Kucherov coming for McDavid’s 153. Wild

Possible, but I don't see it happening.

 

[Rschmitz]

Kucherov coming for McDavid’s 153. Wild

The laws of nature would not allow this to happen

 

[Calderon]

I wonder how much inner pressure McDavid feels to play tomorrow against the Coyotes, especially if Kucherov doesn't break 100 tonight. Like it or not, Kucherov is devaluing McDavid's historical assist campaign — and seemingly on a whim at that.

 

[Hoek]

Since when does the "campaign" belong to McDavid

No question mcdavid is on his sofa watching this game

It's Kucherov's historical assist campaign if he reaches it first. That's 26 assists in his last 15 games and still going this game, he just said nah I want 100 first.

He cant win a cup in Edmonton, so the campaign is his.
