Sebastian Aho has 6 straight playoffs with 10 points or more and has 8 going into the second round, anyone with a better 10+ point current streak?

[wetcoast]

Sebastian is just so consistent, 6 straight years double digits in points in the playoffs and has 8 going into the second round.

I also wonder if the canes go deep if it ups his legacy a bit but still probably isn't on a HHOF path.

If he follows the same pattern then he'll get 3-4 more points and then they get eliminated.

I think the Canes will make it past round 2 they look really strong, except having Anderson out from that Meier hit might hurt them, depends on the matchup I guess.

 

[Big Daddy Cane]

78 points in 79 playoff games. He's pulled his weight. The supporting cast, namely Svechnikov and Necas in prior years, did not.

 

[Elvs]

That's honestly very impressive.

The Penguins should have considered calling him up from Wilkes-Barre, maybe they would've made the playoffs.

 

[PeteEakins]

Super impressive.

In comparison, in their last 4 playoff appearances (including this year)

LEON DRAISAITL
Games Played: 58
Goals: 33
Assists: 58
Points: 91 points

Goals per Game: 0.56 (47 goals over an 82 game season)
Points per Game: 1.57 (129 points over an 82 game season)

CONNOR MCDAVID
Games Played: 58
Goals: 28
Assists: 77
Points: 105 points

Goals per Game: 0.48 (40 goals over an 82 game season)
Points per Game: 1.81 (148 points over an 82 game season)

And none of this production is enough for a Cup. It's tough out here. Hockey is the ultimate team sport and your team team needs to be stacked on D and goalie too.

 

[landy]

What a weird stat. Basically a which team has the most consecutive years of getting out of at least round 1, or had deep 6-7 game round 1's and lost. Then boom their top line likely has 10+ points.

Thanks for the update. I had never heard about these guys before. Somebody should make a thread about them.

Anyway, I've always liked Aho. I feel like he's always been flying under the radar a little, ever since his junior days because of all the hype surrounding Laine and Puljujarvi. Good for him.

Great skater, playmaker and two-way player. There's simply a lot to like with his game.

 

[ijuka]

He's a playoff performer. Unfortunately, he's the level of a player who ideally is #2 on a contender, not #1. But Canes just don't have the high-end talent, so it tends to not be enough.

Clever.

 

[wetcoast]

I don't see how this is noted as such a impressive stat.

Because not many players have done it recently?

Waiting for PNEP, he will have some stats on this.

 

[tarheelhockey]

This is largely a function of being the 1C on a team that has gone to at least the second round for 7 consecutive years.

Only three other teams have ever done that. So the 1C on the great majority of teams will have a year where they made a quick exit before they could pile up numbers.

There’s something to be said for it, even though it’s a pretty obscure stat. He shows up and pulls his weight in the playoffs every year. Lots of guys don’t.

Sure but he is still 8th overall and 6th in ESP during that time frame.

He is an excellent playoff performer even with the trivia question I posted.

 

[jetsforever]

That's very impressive actually

 

[KAWAIlllI]

He’s awesome and under appreciated

 

[Video Nasty]

Seems impressive to me. I’m assuming Gretzky’s 11 straight is the “record.” Wouldn’t mind knowing what the high is among other current players.

Yeah, Messier did it 10 years in a row and 14 out of 15. The lone blip was the year Rangers missed the playoffs over that stretch.

 

[HabsDood]

I'd offersheet him

 

[newsportsfan123]

I can't see how some people don't rank him a top 15-20 center, hell even top-10. His playoff performance is some of the best amongst the league.

It's definitely a Goldilocks stat.

He pulls his weight, but his team has also been good around him allowing him to get to the second or third round every year to put up those points.

While he's never had a bad year production wise, he also hasn't had a playoff run where he has put the team on his back with a big hot streak. Perhaps his year he can break through.

He for sure gets less press than he deserves because he's in Carolina and they don't get coverage unless they go to the finals essentially.

 

[bleedthenorth]

Interesting stat. Reminds me of a post I read last year which said that Aho, though being a good player, isn't at the caliber needed of a cup-winning 1C.

 

[Pablo El Perro]

I don't see how this is noted as such a impressive stat.

It's a stat. A bit like x player has more y goal seasons over the last x years than anyone. And I love Aho.
