Finding Hyman
McDavid sure slowed down near the end of the last 2 years...
McD has good starts, and finishes. Like any mortal though, in an 82 game season fatigue, health, other factors set in. Maybe this year will be different but around the league theres often inordinate scoring that occurs early in seasons. Its been this way for awhile. Remember people talking about whether a certain Tampa scorer would score a goal a game season? lmao.
Look at the scoring chart right now. All grossly elevated numbers and pts/game and goals/game rates that will be unsustainable.
Its like every season the NHL teams figure again, how to play systems, D, play integrated etc. The first month of the season so often looks like amateur hour in relation to most of the season when teams start playing better in all areas and scoring starts to go down.
I mean Matthews is on a 100 goal scoring pace. lmao at that.
Everything in production is elevated at this time of year relative to where it will finish. It just is. book it.
