With his goal last night, Matthews now has 50g combined reg. season and playoffs in 95 games (0.53g/gm).
Stamkos is slightly ahead (0.54g/gm), but at the same age he didnt even have 30 career goals yet. Add in his playoff numbers and he drops to the exact same rate as matthews (0.526). Crosby (0.49g/gm) and Laine are close with a 0.48g/gm.
other notables
Malkin (0.46)
Tarasenko (0.43)
Kucherov (0.40)
McDavid (0.37)
Kessel (0.36)
Is Matthews the best pure scorer to enter the league since OV? No one else besides OV was averaging more than half a goal a game or more into their 2nd season.
