I could have sworn he’d done it before. Kind of crazy that a guy with a career 94 point pace who’s missed almost no time had never hit 100 before. Congrats to him. He’s a damn good player

He had 95 in 69 games in 2019-20, Covid robbed him (and others) of their first 100 pointer

Paced for like 113pts in back to back seasons but they were both Covid shortened ones
Man on a mission and deserving of a top 5 spot in the Hart voting. His goal scoring and consistency this season have been outstanding. Amazing to watch how good he has played knowing there are 3 players who are so far in front of him in the scoring race. There have been some sensational individual performances this year across the league.
Absolute stud. And as a hawks I rue the day he was traded.
He’s basically been like MacK before last year where he basically has seasons shortened just enough where he doesn’t hit it.
The reality is 100 is a stupid artificial number that has no real significance but seems to count so much in the eyes of casual fans - and that being the case, I’m thrilled that he got over this imaginary line because the guy is simply one of the best and most exciting offensive players of his era.

Best Ranger forward in the franchise history
And to think, a lot of Ranger fans wanted to trade him and retain

It also robbed McDavid of a pretty good shot at the most consecutive 100 point seasons. Just 3 more points in 19/20, and he’d be sitting at 8 consecutive right now, which is only 5 back of Gretzky, and 2 more than anyone else has.
Ya, and he even came close the last 2 years.

Wtf, I was absolutely certain he'd done it at least once before. Crazy this is his first time.

Lundqvist’s record of most consecutive 30 win seasons to start a career ended due to the last lockout. Lame.

One of the greatest players to ever play for the Rangers which is saying a lot. But he has to do it in the playoffs. There are stretches where he looks like the best player in the world and can create offense at will and other games where he disappears. If he wanted to and dedicated himself to it he would win a Hart trophy. He has the skill for it but not always the heart.
If this is the year that Regular season Panarin finally shows up in the post season the Rangers will be a very tough out
He’s gotta be up there in terms of best big ticket UFA signings ever.

First, I'm surprised he never hit 100 before.
Secondly, am I losing my mind or were the Rangers fans here highly critical of him?

he was lazy last year and refused to shoot. also carried the puck into the zone, stopped, threw it cross ice all the time. this year hes shooting a lot more and has been much more tenacious.

Last year he was pretty underwhelming. Ngl I was one of the people who was calling for his head. This year, Panarin's back to his old dominance, and part of that is finding a RW that's really fit well with him & Trocheck. Lafreniere has really played his part in that line's massive improvement over last year.
He was on pace for it in two Covid shortened seasons and I think one season he was injured or maybe away in Russia because of rumors about him raping someone and he didn't get there. And last year was a down year when he still got 92 points. Before the Rangers he was more of a PPG player.
