Gm 7 Double OT
This is what we were all thinking about McDavid, except he missed more games

I bomb atomically...
Updated totals as of this morning:
Kucherov - on pace for 137 points and 50 goals in 81 games
MacKinnon on pace for 137 points and 51 goals in 82 games
McDavid on pace for 136 points and 104 assists in 80 games
As neck and neck as it gets for the Ross and Hart.
Speaking of Hart - Matthews has slowed down a bit in the past week. Now on pace for 72 goals and 107 points in 81 games. When he was on pace for closer to 80 goals then 75 not too long ago, he seemed to be in the race for hart despite lower point toals - but unless he picks it up again soon, he's going to be too far back to have a shot at the hart above those 3.

Tampa faces only elite teams while MacGannon feasts on AHL teams like BlackHawkes

I wonder if we let MacKinnon play wing and not bother with defense, if it would inflate his point totals too? Just trying to figure out how to boost this point total further.
Oh yeah, Nathan MacKinnon, a year after year Selke favorite...

Exactly, no point in pretending he is one. We should be maximizing his offense.
I'm not interested enough at this point, but if we are really trying to guess at who has the best chance.....the top 3 seems to be pacing for around the same totals.....has anyone looked at teams each will be playing for the rest of the season (perhaps still too early for that)?
If he's within a few points of a scoring title, it will mean something.

One key area of interest is that the Avalanche and Oilers play each other three times in their final 15 and 18 games respectively.

Mackinnon (kucherov and McDavid as well for that matter) have had a higher ppg against the east compared to the west, both during this season and last season as well, so saying he gets to play against favorable opponents isn’t really a strong case. Most of the time it’s a crap shoot anyways.

MacKinnon and McDavid end the season playing vs each other. Would be cool to see that decide it
Tampa basically plays a bunch of games against my team which would do better with a shooter tutor.
At least Chicago has a goalie.
You would think that leans a bit in McDavid's favour because TB gives up a lots more goals against than EDM

This may be the best art ross race we've seen since 1979 in all honesty. It's so fun seeing this many star calibre players all have peak seasons at the same time.
For reference, here's the top 4 players in points for that season:
