Pastrnak fastest to 20 goals since...?

[Trap Jesus]

Difficult stat to look up, I just get that Boyes did it in 31 games on St. Louis. Pastrnak scored his 20th in his 22nd game. Who was the last player to do it faster than that?

 

[Avsboy]

Crosby in '16

Sidney Crosby the first to 20 goals in the NHL this season

Well this Pastrnak brag thread died early.

I said faster, that's the same

Stamkos 2010, I believe.

Well this Pastrnak brag thread died early.

Because he did it in the same time as arguably a top 10 player of all time? What a plug!

I will add Ovechkin in 2013, who also scored 20 in 22, because the thread is starting to look like a curse.
At least he finished with 50+ goals for the season unlike Crosby 16/17 and Stamkos 10/11

Must have been a different season 2013 there were only 48 games.

 

[Glove Malfunction]

He's referring to the first 22 games of the 13-14 season. Which, of course, were in 2013.

It was the start of 2013/14, but the first 20 games were all in 2013.

Makes sense, my bad.

Yeah scoring a lot of goals early in the season can backfire huge. Like Laine last year with 21 goals in his first 24 games and he ended up with just 30. Pastrnak better hope the Bruins won't force him to become a 2-way player like Winnipeg did with Laine...

I love Mulletman

"arguably a top 10 player" ...

i think you meant to say "arguably a top 5 player"

No the fact it was done a few years ago. The title made it seem so long ago when it recently happened

Sid is not a top 5 player of all time... he is between 9-12. He is certainly not top 5.

you realize what the word "arguably" means, right?

 

[King Mapes]

Yes and it’s not worth arguing. The guy is not a top 5 player. It’s not arguable, he just isn’t. He’s closer to 10th than anywhere else which is why is arguably a top 10 player.

Howe, Gretzky, Orr and Mario is the obvious top 4. No one else is close.

Then Hull, Richard, Messier and Jagr are probably the next 4. Then you can argue Sid after that.

Maybe even closer to top 15.

Dear god, when you say arguably top 10 it means there's a chance he's not part of the top 10.. which everyone can agree is a ridiculous statement.

When you say arguably top 5 it means hes 100% in the top 10 (and some might argue in the top 5 if it's based on career projection, main point is that hes 100% a top 10er).

When it's all said and done Sid will be #5 all time, so arguably top 5 (but top 10 for sure).

No arguably top 5 means he could be argued as a top 5 player. He can not. He is arguably a top 10 player since I listed 8 guys for sure ahead of him. He will not be top 5 all time when it’s said and done since he is now past his prime.

So to go back to my intial question, you don't know what arguably means. Fair enough.

Apparently you don’t. He is nowhere near the top 5. I listed 8 for sure ahead of him and then es in the next group of guys of 4-5. He is not close to being arguably a top 5 player

For arguements sake he’s around 10th
