Wow.nah more like he had an anomaly of a season
that his season last year was a mirage
maybe he hits 70-80ish points if league scoring stays up but I have a tough time seeing more than that

Insightful.I swear to god, I read the username, the first two lines, and I said to myself “I would bet one thousand dollars that “Eichel” appears somewhere in this post.”

Name some 23 year old that can fluke their way to a 97 point season.
My point was that he's putting up points, and he hasn't even played up to his level. Sissons and Smith don't have another level.woah he's got 3 points in only 2 games?
nevermind then,if he can put up as many points in 2 games as Colton Sissons and Zack Smith he's probably gonna break Gretzky's single season points record
how about you name someone that suddenly after 300+ games played in the NHL almost doubles their previous years point total without a significant increase in icetime and then actually maintains it?
fluky one off years happen all the time,Jiri Hudler and Nick Foligno are two names that pop immediately to mind with seasons where they had a similar level of overperformance relative to their careers
he had a 60 point rookie season back when the top scorers were barely breaking 80 points and then two 50 point years with not very good linemates on a bad team. he also had a better rookie playoff appearance then I think phil kessel ever had. if your problem is he needs linemates to have these seasons then fair enough i guess? speaking of kessel you may not remember this but, not particularly good his first few seasons.cool
how many did he have in the 76 games before that?
or the 300 games before that for that matter
MacKinnon is considered ahead of Eichel because he just put up 97 points while Eichel had a career high of 64. MacKinnon also goes best mode in the Playoffs and Eichel hasn't had the benefit of making it there yet.
Let me know when Eichel puts up 100 in 76.Yeah let’s leave out those 64 were in 67 and he had 57 in 61 the year before yet mackinnon gets excuses like he was in a Tire fire team yet that didn’t stop eichel from producing just under a ppg twice which makinnons only done once.
I’m not saying eichel is better But so what if Mack out scored him last year eichel our scored him the year before on one good leg playing two less months in just his second season.
I’m not saying he’s better but at least produce context if your gonna rip someone. He’s played a few more seasons I should hope he has a much higher career high. He also plays with rantanen and landedkog way better line mates then eichel ever had.
Ps eichel has 123 pts in his last 130 games Mack has was what 140-150? If that. Not vastly different.
Thornton took a while to get going, had his real breakout year as the same age as MacKinnon and was then able to maintain it. Of course MacKinnon won’t continue to be the guy he was last year, he played at a 108 point pace, that’s Malkin/McDavid level, he’s not that guy. The Avs had the most power plays in the league and Mackinnons shooting percentage and on ice shooting percentages weren’t crazy high but they will probably come down this year. He’s not going to go back to 50 points either though.how about you name someone that suddenly after 300+ games played in the NHL almost doubles their previous years point total without a significant increase in icetime and then actually maintains it?

Where was he the first four seasons.
Is Jack Eichel on my Tim Hortons coffee cup? No. Nathan MacKinnon is.Yeah let’s leave out those 64 were in 67 and he had 57 in 61 the year before yet mackinnon gets excuses like he was in a Tire fire team yet that didn’t stop eichel from producing just under a ppg twice which makinnons only done once.

Who cares? All that matters is now.
His last 76 games aren’t “now”. They’re the past just like his first four seasons are the past and all of it is relevant to predicting what he’ll do in the future. Obviously recent history is more important than less recent history but it’s still all relevant.
