Mcdavid Bouchard

 

[bobholly39]

McDavid ~120-150 is a good range.
Karlsson ~80-105
Crosby ~90-110
Bouchard ~50-70

Average: McDavid/Bouchard ~ 195 vs Karlsson/Crosby ~192.5

It's really close. I voted EK/Crosby, but can definitely see it going either/or.

Bouchard has gotten 40-ish points in both of his 2 seasons so far. Even with Barrie gone, possibly giving him some more PP usage, there's no reason to assume a massive production jump is coming.

McDavid's reasonable max is 150 ish points. Add in 40 for Bouchard and you have 190, tops.

Crosby and Karlsson can both hit 100. But neither is a lock. I'd say their max would be a bit above 200, but they're less likely to get there because of age/health concerns.

Still picked Sid/EK because I like to go with the fun option.

When healthy it’s pretty close, so I went with McDavid and Bouchard given the respective risks of injury.

I don’t know how you can butcher names like Crosby and McDavid, but the thread title surpassed that.

 

[Dipsy Doodle]

Probably McDavid and Bouchard.

But I'd take Malkin and Letang over Draisaitl and Nurse.

 

[Three On Zero]

Bouchard will get a huge jump due to the Powerplay, I would suspect McDavid/Bouchard for total points and Crosby/EK purely for even strength points

Imagine McDavid Bouchard will both pace for more points and be fitter. Would be delighted to be wrong.

Last Season, Crosby+Karlsson had 93+101 for 194, and McDavid+Bouchard had 153+40 for 193.

However, Bouchard's playoff performance was very scary and if he can get anywhere near that performance, he should be able to increase his scoring rate significantly. Meanwhile, both Crosby and Karlsson are aging, and it's unsure how well Karlsson will mesh in with a new club.
