Will Connor McDavid win the Art Ross this season?

[HabsCode]

He had a somewhat slow start for his standard with like 10 points and 10 games, when he got injured with Mackinnon, Kaprizov and Kucherov having strong start I taught that was it for him this season as far as getting the Art Ross.

Well since his fast injury comeback he has 14 points in 7 games. He is 10 points out from leader Nathan Mackinnon.

Still early season but what do you think?

Considering how terrible the Oilers PP has been, they are bound to turn it around here at some point.

It's pretty tough to bet against 97.

 

[SillyRabbit]

It's kinda crazy that he's only 10 points back given how hot MacKinnon and Kaprizov have been.

When it comes to the Art Ross, McDavid has proven to be inevitable.

I'm voting yes.

Last season, with a nagging injury, he trimmed a 20 point deficit in just 28 days to retake the scoring lead late in the season. Kucherov and MacKinnon were not cold either. His goal scoring touch seems to be back and he’s looking pretty damn good. He can absolutely win this thing. If he doesn’t miss more time, I think he matches Howe and Lemieux with his sixth Art Ross.

No chance

 

[Albatros]

He probably still remembers what it was like being out of gas in game seven.

 

[Kerberos]

Only him and Draisaitl are able to piss a drop offensively for the Oilers right now. If Hyman, RNH and the others ever actually do something and the PP stops sucking, I don't think it will be a particularly close race.

 

[jigglysquishy]

No, I don't think so but I do think he gets close.

MacKinnon is still red hot and proved he can put up 140 points.

When the bar is that high, even missing a couple games can do it.

Tough to bet against 97 , I voted Yes but i'm not very confident about it , Mack is going crazy , if he stays healthy I don't think 97 can catch up

Last season, with a nagging injury

Speculation.

Last season showed that McDavid is quite mortal, even at his “peak”.

 

[Skolman]

Speculation.

Last season showed that McDavid is quite mortal, even at his “peak”.

132 points in 76 regular season games.
42 points in 25 playoff games.

Who had better numbers?

Speculation.

Last season showed that McDavid is quite mortal, even at his “peak”.

Speculation? I watch and/or follow every game of his career, and I also know to look at similar injuries and spot patterns. McDavid was rushed back after two games because the Oilers were in a downward spiral and he lacked his shot all season long.

The fact that he dropped 132 in 76 with a nagging upper body injury and then 42 in 25 playoff games after a lower body injury actually demonstrates how not mortal he is, probably the most immortal someone can be in today’s game.

 

[Cup or Bust]

I said no but it's still possible if some of the Oilers wingers actually start scoring some goals.

 

[NeverForget06]

If Hyman wasn't ice cold to start the season he'd probably have about 7 more assists right now.
