Art Ross thread (2018/19)

[TheAngryHank]

If Rat or Mac get hurt both production will go down.McD will drop if he gets hurt.Odds are in McDavid favor.

 

[Dondini]

Garrett sparks says Marner will win it / thread

 

[AvsFan29]

Are you serious?

No, he's not. And Rantanen is barely slowing down lol

 

[MrThomas]

Rantanen is slowing down big time. Putting up a goose egg or a secondary assist on the PP every other game won't cut it the way McDavid is playing.

He'll probably sign a bridge deal for $6m.

You dont know your hockey sry

 

[ConnorMcMullet]

When?? Find me a time in the last 9 weeks where he was within 3 points.

Nov.18 he was tied. Check the poll How long until McDavid leads the league in points?

McDavid will win, but I hope Mackinnon does. He’s amazing and on the best contract in the league.

 

[JustinCase]

I feel like McDavid should be given a handicap.
Nobody else could put up back to back Art Ross seasons with the supporting cast that he has to work with.

 

[AvsFan29]

I don't know who told you that. Nov 18th he was down 2. Nov 19th he was down 3. Nov 20th he was down 4. By Nov 30th he was down 8. By Dec 5th he was down 11.

I don't think he's been closer than 7 since the last week of November.

 

[ConnorMcMullet]

How long until Mcdavid takes over league lead in points?

Never mind, Nov 14th. My point still stands, you were spewing nonsense out of your butt.

We can call it "The Chiarelli Factor"

Lol my bad. It's just been so long since McDavid was close, that I assumed it was longer.

He was tied on the 14th having played one more game. By the 15th he was down 3 again.

I'm glad we wasted our time to find the 12 hour period where McDavid led the league this season

Proving people wrong is never a waste of time for me

McDavid is 7 points back, but with 2 games at hand. It’s inaccurate to say he isn’t close. At his current pace, those 2 games alone would bring him within 4 points.

Sure, that still has Rantanen leading the way, but not by much. 4 points is not insurmountable.

Sure, that still has Rantanen leading the way, but not by much. With over half a season to go, that lead isn’t even close to untouchable, and it’s not like McDavid has a history of falling short in a full season.

1 game in hand. Rantanen has been slow the last 5 games with only 6 points

Lol ya it's all good. I do the same

 

[Soliloquy of a Dogge]

I literally just explained this to you on the last page of the thread. Too much rum and eggnog?

 

[Apotheosis]

McDavid on his usual last 25 game tear is a safe bet, but I have a feeling it's going to be Mackinnon.

 

[Sojourn]

1 game in hand. Rantanen has been slow the last 5 games with only 6 points

That’s not a particularly good argument. Rantanen’s current pace is, what? 130 points?

I’m not saying he can’t sustain it, but arguing that the last 5 games he’s only put up a little over a PPG is not your best defense.

 

[Jordan Belfort]

He's not some god but MacKinnon was a 60 point player at the same age as McDavid. To think that McDavid has reached his prime is foolish.

If you had to bet your money, you would pick McDavid.

You’re right, at the beginning of the season I would have bet Mcdavid, but at this point, My money is on one of the Avs.

He still isn’t really close.

 

[Future GOAT]

Realistically if it's not on McDavid (which it should still be) then it should be on Kucherov.

? I didn't say he was going to hit 130. What do you mean it's not my best defence? What am I defending?

Based on?

You said Rantanen has been “slow” the past 5 games, with 6 points.
