Nikita Kucherov is the clear favorite for the Art Ross Trophy

[BallardEra]

McDavid 15 points back with 5 games in hand.

McDavid 15 points back with 5 games in hand.

Only player in the world who can realistically make up that kind of gap.

I still think he wins his fourth consecutive Art Ross and sixth overall.

Side note, fourth fastest ever to 600 assists.

601 assists in 616 games.

Insane.

601 assists in 616 games.

Insane.

As usual, behind only Gretzky, Lemieux, and in this case Orr. I think he’s doing something right.

 

[McPoyle]

Wow I pop into this thread for the first time in a while (5 and counting for McDavid) and it looks like a quarter of the posts are from a certain Crosby fanboy.

Interesting the games played argument only works one way.

14 points back with I think 6 games in hand. McDavid is in the Art Ross race.

 

[crowfish]

5th apple of the night for Connor and it's a beauty!

 

[BallardEra]

13 points back with 5 games in hand.

 

[jcs0218]

I still think McDavid catches Kucherov.

 

[jproilfan]

13 with 5 in hand

 

[jcs0218]

I wonder if the Hockey Gods are supporting McDavid over Kucherov.

 

[crowfish]

6 assists +6

0:00 powerplay time tonight for the "PP Merchant"

 

[EXTRAS]

Mcdavid just put himself back in the race tonight.

5th apple of the night for Connor and it's a beauty!

That one had me jumping

McDavid has honestly been very ordinary this year. A game like tonight used to happen a lot.

5 games in hand on the leader

Only the 5th time in history someone has ever scored 6 even strength assists in a single game. It's only happened 3 times since 1950: gretzky (7), Letang (6), mcdavid (6).

 

[Kerberos]

McDavid still finding new ways to show he's on a completely different level than anyone else in the league.

He's not even playing that great this season by his standards and is still right there.

 

[TheGuiminator]

Kucherov better starts averaging 3 points per game for the rest of the season, cause McDavid ain't slowing down

6th Art Ross incoming

So is the McDavid narrative shifting away from "he's focusing on defense this year"?

 

[Video Nasty]

Welcome to the club, Kucherov.

McDavid will be doing it for the third time in four seasons within two weeks, maybe even a week the rate he’s going.

 

[Coffey]

So is the McDavid narrative shifting away from "he's focusing on defense this year"?

He had 6 pts and a +6.

So nope. Can still do both.

 

[Master P]

He had 6 pts and a +6.

So nope. Can still do both.

Cool, Kuch had a 6 pt game earlier this season as well.

 

[North Cole]

Cool, Kuch had a 6 pt game earlier this season as well.

What does that have to do with whatever narrative you brought up?

 

[Master P]

What does that have to do with whatever narrative you brought up?

Just a fun fact.

 

[authentic]

Not only will he catch him he will put some distance on him by the end of the season
