There is only 21 games left in the regular season for the Edmonton Oilers, and Connor McDavid is only 50 points away from the millennium mark for his career at only 27 years old. He needs to average a little over 2 points per game for the rest of the season to reach the milestone.

Can he, and will he do it?
Not likely.

I think the mountain is too high to climb to make it happen this season. But if there is anyone who can make it happen, it's McDavid. He'll hit the mark early into next season.

The fact we are even talking about a player hitting 1000 career points as a 27-year old these days is crazy to even think about.

What do you think about him getting point #2000 at 29 years old? The fastest player to 1000 points is Wayne Gretzky in 424 games. The second fastest player to 1000 points is Wayne Gretzky, in 433 games his second time around 🤣
This has always beeny favourite Gretzky fact. I can't fathom how anyone can name someone else as the greatest to ever play.

McDavid needs 47 points in his next 25 games to get to 1000 points the third quickest in terms of games played, after just Gretzky and Lemieux.

He will not get 47 points in the final 19 games. No way. This will be an October 2024 thread. Not an April 2024 thread. But still very special to be doing this. Obviously Gretzky and Lemieux hit 1000 points before 30, but how many others did? Bossy did. I believe Savard did. Crosby was 29. So yeah it is quite special to do this and still be just 27.

That would be amazing. It would also be likely that he would then pass Mario's 114 assist record.

Being second to Gretzky in any assist category is the equivalent to being first in the rest of the multiverse.

About a year ago, I was thinking that McDavid would be 100th player to get 1000 points. But now it looks like he's 99th since Kessel didn't get a contract for this season.
