Homer vote Matthews (going forward), but MacKinnon is on another level from basically everyone this year. Wonder if he can keep up this kind of domination.
Matthews, just going to get better
true, but I also wouldn't be surprised if he does. he just has to improve on the PP and maintain his ES excellence. MacKinnon is just an absolute beast thoughAnd might never reach the level that MacKinnon is currently at.
I like Matthews but there’s no guarantee he ever gets to MacKinnons level of play this season.
one great season doesnt mean hes forever better. I love Mac and all but one year ago I think this poll wouldve been 80-15 Matthews.And might never reach the level that MacKinnon is currently at.
I like Matthews but there’s no guarantee he ever gets to MacKinnons level of play this season.
There's also no guarantee Mackinnon sustains this level of play. Would I really trade Matthews for a 100 point scorer even if that 100 point scorer never hits 100 points again?And might never reach the level that MacKinnon is currently at.

True, but isn't the guy who's actually hit 100 points more likely to hit 100 points again than the guy who's never even come close?
Depends. A lot of factors go into it. Like age and experience. And right now its just a one time thing for Mac. If a kid could come into the league and immediately pot in 40 goals in his first year in the league with only rookies on his line, I'd say the chances are similar. Now if 100 pts are repeated then sure without a doubt. But at the start of next season, both players start off at 0pts. And thats what needs to be remembered.True, but isn't the guy who's actually hit 100 points more likely to hit 100 points again than the guy who's never even come close?

Heatley hit 50 goals and a 100 points in back to back seasons. Crosby has done it 5 times. I don't know what your point is. Heatley had a ton of personal issues that ruined his career which is something that Crosby hasn't had to deal with.Well Matthews won't ever even sniff 100 points.
Would you have traded Heatley in his prime for a prime Crosby?
You're totally right, I forgot Heater got 100 points as well as the 50 goals. Matthews will never get 100 points so this is a moot point.Heatley hit 50 goals and a 100 points in back to back seasons.

Thanks Nostradamus. Did he kick your dog? I know Matty can be a real meany sometimes.You're totally right, I forgot Heater got 100 points as well as the 50 goals. Matthews will never get 100 points so this is a moot point.
That's cute, but if you want a reasonable response, come up with a something better than an embarrassing comparison (Heatley got 100pts btw genius) and a piss poor prediction.Well Matthews won't ever even sniff 100 points.
