I’m not saying he should win It, but he should certainly be in the discussion, right? These last two years have been his “breakout” years and the Bruins have re emerged as a result.

Marchand should be in the top 5 for Hart voting. Change my mind.

Reputation is not an acceptable argument

thats why. theres not that much of a difference between the 3

Pasta was a pedestrian player until Marchand’s breakout. A good player makes those around him better, your stats really don’t reflect that and therefore it’s not enough evidence to say he’s not worthy of consideration.

Anyone on a line with an elite player will see a bump in statistics especially when the line gels the way the Bruins’ does.

Ovechkin and Kopitar? Cmon

Ovie is going to likely hit 50 goals on a Caps team that has sputtered offensively compared to the last couple years.

The Kopitar argument is above.

Marchand is a great player on probably
a top three line. I understand he is doing it without Bergy for now. But, that spread on his line is not solely his impact like say Kopitar, Ovechkin, or MacKinnon.

Last season, in his first full season on a line with Ovie, Oshie was 4 points off his season high in 11 less games despite a relatively down year for Ovie in terms of ppg. You’re proving my point for me.

And Hall’s my pick to win It. I can’t argue that he’s got the team on his back.

Picking a fight
He's already missed 14 games. He absolutely should not be over any of Malkin, Kucherov, Hall, Ovechkin, or MacKinnon.

Hell I'd vote for his own linemate over him.
