Leafs have a 30g scorer on each of their top 3 lines

This thread will die until Matthews gets that 30th it'll be bumped!

That is good ice time.

Especially when you are getting 2+ mins each of power play time.

And especially since none of those 3 players have any penalty kill time. Every one of those minutes is spent in prime scoring minutes.

Matthews doesn't get tons of PP time, believe it or not he is on the 2nd PP unit

Fun fact. Leafs rank dead last in Powerplay time this year. Over 120 minutes less then Colorado which equates to over two full NHL hockey games.

I can't tell if people are saying Matthews isn't a 30 goal scorer as a joke or are actually that petty

Likely the latter, however still amusing

I'd sure hope a "generational talent" hits 30 goals

Maybe next year he will hit PPG

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Sweet so the Ducks still have a 50 goal scorer on their top line.

Perry did that in 2010-11 Matthews hit hit 40 less than a year ago, not even close to the same thing.

Nice try but you failed

You mean how the Capitals coach called him that?

Cool that Boeser and Connor are 30 goal scorers in their rookie seasons, E. Kane and Grabner are the only 30 goal scorers that got traded, Jets have 3 now including Ehlers, and Crosby/Benn/Stamkos might be down a bit in goal scoring but at least they made 30.

*Disclaimer: None of the guys above actually have 30 goals, but they're all close

So this is the six or whatever leafs have 60 points thread from last year for this year ?

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

until i see him shelf #30 then no hes got 29 goals.

He shelfed 40 less than a year go so he's clearly a 30 goal guy

 

[StoneHands]

The Pens have three 90 point players on each of their top 3 lines.

1st line - Crosby 84p
2nd line - Malkin 93p
3rd line - Kessel 85p

Nope.

The Oilers are last in power play opportunities with 196

The Montréal Canadiens had 103 pts less than a year ago. Clearly, we're a playoffs team.

 

[Seanaconda]

No this is a brand new thread created today about goals scored by players on the same team but on different lines

Yeah but same premise as the last years

 

[Gunnersaurus Rex]

Pretty safe bet he will be

Never know. He's injury prone.....

I will laugh my butt off if he ends at 29 goals...haha

 

[LeafFever]

Nope.

He was stating minutes.

 

[LeafFever]

So many people hate the Leafs. And then they deny they are not biased

 

[jetsforever]

Nick Foligno in one year went from 31 goals and 73 points to 12 goals and 37 points.
I know that Matthews is definitely good for 30, I'm just saying this isn't the best argument.

 

[CupsOverCash]

Tampa has a chance to do it too. Point and Stamkos are real close to 30.

 

[Martin Skoula]

Totally, players getting injured is hilarious.

Yep.He said pp time.

Yeah, there’s a distinction between time and opportunities. Two different stats.

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

Shoulda waited till he hit 30 to make this thread... Now gotta skim through too much nonsense

Anyways, thats VERY impressive

One of these things is not like the other, one of these things just doesn't belong.
