2023, Michkov and Bedard will be the new Crosby/Ovie. Remember where y'all saw it first.Matvei Michkov
Crosby did it.....at 18 years old.....
The next one who will do it at 18....is not born yet.
Before Crosby.....Dale Hawerchuk did it and Lemieux
Lafreniere could do it I think, he’s an extremely smart player and is both a playmaker and goal scorer, that versatility will help him if his linemates end up being trash.
Sid and Ovi were the last to reach that. Since then no one has reached it. Hughes and Kakko are at 20 pts and they were super super hyped. Think of how bad those stats are relative to Sid and Ovi. 100+ vs 20 pts. Season isn't over and they might reach 30 but what a huge difference and there was enormous hype for both Hughes and Kakko. Not just them but Matthews was hyped and didn't reach PPG despite 4 goal start. McDavid got injured as a rookie so we never got to see what he could or couldn't do, and he ended up pacing for about 87 pts.
So the question is, who is the next rookie that will reach 100 in year 1?
I would guess there is a 90%+ chance he doesnt. Regardless of how talented he is. The best players in the world have a hard time hitting 100 points in this league, let alone a rookie.

How good is Muchov Looking in comparison to past Russian Prespects? His stat line looks insaneMatvei Michkov
I'd say that someone from the 2022 draft class is most likely in the near future. Lafreniere? I'm not really seeing him as someone who can score 100 points as a 18-year-old, although it might be possible. If not someone from 2022, then perhaps 2024.

Yeah, he has something like 78 points in 18 games and is average a hat-trick a game, which is quite impressive. I was just interested to hear how he compared to Ivan Miroshnichenko, because that’s another guy that I’ve heard people throw the “could be generational” label at.He’s definitely really good. Whether he’s a generational level player or only a guy who’ll be a star NHL winger is still to be determined. I figure when you are so good and are playing such low level competition, either level of player will do to put up incredible numbers.
