The funny part is it's mostly fans of other teams voting and not the two fan bases voting for their guy.Yeah those Islander fans are insecure n always voting their guy in
16 of the 21 votes for Tavares are Leaf fans. Yikes, seems no one else would have him even close to 25, rightfully

I voted him just because of how insanely salty you get. Its the only reason I come to these threads.
Add Nylander, let's keep you irritated and whiny.

I know neither are going to be next but kind of weird that Couture is on that list over Hertl. Hertl is better than Couture.
At this point bub i just add who others suggest, Im not gonna go thru nhl.com to find anyone who might a been missed. I can add Hertl for next round but will NOT remove Couture

The bub was unnecessary and it wasn’t a shot at you. It’s more a shot at whoever suggested Couture over Hertl. I don’t care what you do. It’s not like this means anything. Just shows people don’t actually watch the Sharks.

I mean to be fair, over the last 2 seasons he is 22nd in points, 10th in goals, and 24th in PPG. I wouldn't be taking him yet but he is certainly in that range.

Been working in the service industry too long where people like to use bub, bud, buddy, etc. as insults. Probably read too much into it. No hard feelings!
Depending which Sharks fans you ask and how pessimistic they are, you can probably get them to say he ended his own career with his knee injuries! Two for one I guess!Or are people just really upset that Hertl is a proven career ender

I didn't vote for him, but it's absolutely hilarious to see you constantly shit on our players. I voted for ROR here.
25 is fair considering his role for Toronto.
John Tavares last year was 3rd in goals, and 15th in points. Not only that since 2016 JT is 5th in goals and 13th in points. He also brings a lot defensively, and is amazing on the dot.

When he's being compared to quite a few young players who weren't even in the league at that point (or just starting), I don't think it's accurate to measure Tavares' long term career production is a good one because it doesn't really paint a picture of *right now*.
For example, pretty sure Crosby's got more points over the past decade than pretty much anyone in hockey. Doesn't mean he should be ranked *right now* ahead of guys like McDavid, Mackinnon or Kucherov.
I think there's quite a few guys when you factor both current production AND age and expected improvements, who should go above Tavares at this point. So just because he's outscored them over the past few seasons doesn't really reflect where he compares *right now* to them.

Tavares
Consistently an 80-90 point player and takes a lot of hard matchups in Toronto
Hall and Huberdeau are also good options
How is Tavares a consistent 90 point scorer when he's never scored 90 points?
one great year shouldnt have him this high... see: Giroux, Gaudreau, amongst others.
I think you missed the point where I said 80-90points. Also known as the range between 80 and 90 points in which he's finished 4 times and paced for 6 times. No one said he consistently got 90 points

Gaudreau has two top 10 scoring finishes and is 5th in even strength points since entering the league; only behind McDavid, Kane, Crosby, and Kucherov.
He's not a one year wonder.

So he consistently scores up to 90 points when he's never scored 90 points? Right...
Not sure what's so confusing? I said he consistently scores between 80 and 90 points(which is very true).So he consistently scores up to 90 points when he's never scored 90 points? Right...
Now more factually accurate would be to say he scores between 80 and 88 points, but that's just not a common phrase of speech.

I consistently score between 0-50 points a year.
Nope. Using your logic you score between 0 and 0 points.
