I feel like judging 5v5 points this year is a little hard. We know the line has done a *lot* of best on best in a really tough division. You look at Rust's most common forward opponents this year and you get
Marchand/Bergeron
Buchnevich/Zibanejad
Bailey/Barzal
Sharangovich/Kuokkanen (NJ, not sure they're as a elite as the others...)
Reinhart/Sheahan (what a time to be alive)
Laughton/Konecny/Hayes
Kuznetsov/Eller/Ovechkin (huh, was that a line?)
Like, happy trails scoring on that lot, right? We know they're scoring low but there's an obvious reason. But then there's been a lot of troubles around the line up.
Me, I think it'll be interesting to see how the production looks in the playoffs. Feel it'll be easier to compare that to past production. It'll be the important part in judging anyway.
