Speculation: Who Will be our leading goal scorer this year?

[GojuLeaf]

So this is a poll being made after a lot of information is available. Currently the goals are something like this:

Nylander: 35 goals
Matthews: 31 goals
Tavares: 30 goals
Marner: 24 goals

We have something like 15 games left think?

Now at the start of the season Matthews would have been the pure favorite but now it would have to be Nylander as Matthews spent many games injured and somewhat underperformed.

Will Austin catch Willy? Or is he too far ahead? Will they both stumble and someone like Tavares or Marner pass them both?

It's not going to be Marner

Despite the teams limitations it’s quite remarkable that we have four players who will likely(Marner)surpass 30 goals.

Nylander has been so damn consistent for most of this season. I think he ends with 45, Matthews/Tavares around 40, and Marner with a hair above 30.

Nylander over Matthews by a goal!

I sure hope Matthews gets it together and puts 20 into the back of the net in the last 15

AM had a 15 game stretch last season where he scored better than a goal a game. He has always been a bit streaky although this years streaks have not been the good kind. I still think he hits 40 but he won't catch Willie. Absence of something this year. At 17:33 a night Tavares will be lucky to hit 35

I can see Nylander leading the team in goals this year. However I hope both Nylander and Matthews hit the 40 goal mark.

I love Nylander but that's not enough to hold off Matthews during the final stretch. At those numbers Matthews has it guaranteed

The situation sure changed quickly. Over the last seven game Matthews has overpasses Nylander and now looks in form to lead the team most likely.
