1. Ovechkin: 30 goals
2. Tavares/Skinner: 26 goals
3. Several players have 24 goals (MacKinnon, Pastrnak, Landeskog, Atkinson, Pavelski, Laine)
4. McDavid/Point: 23 goals



Ovechkin scores his 30th goal in his 39th game tonight and is scoring at a pace of 63 goals per 82 games (what the hell?).

Think Skinner got his 27th tonight. Ovi is just unreal at 33.

Think Skinner got his 27th tonight. Ovi is just unreal at 33.

Thanks. Will update.

Ovechkin

I heard Matthews is not on pace for 50.

 

[koyvoo]

Skinner 28*

 

[BallardEra]

I heard Matthews is not on pace for 50.

You’re right. On pace for 45.

The race is for 2nd. The Grt8 owns the Rocket.

Ovie is getting a hatty today against our weak ass defense. Calling it now.

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

Ovechkin's just too damn consistent to lose this.

 

[Capt Canada]

Hoping for Tavares or Skinner, but Ovechkin likely takes it again.

 

[ottawa]

Give the Great 8 rocket #8

 

[Khomutov]

Ovechkin had a little slump and is still first.

 

[Paris in Flames]

Think it would probably require an injury for Ovechkin to lose it.

 

[Lecavaliers Stick]

Hilarious how Laine is still on pace for 50

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

Johnny Gaudreau the playmaker joins the crowd at 4 with his 25th.

 

[DFC]

Goal scorers tend to be streaky. What separates Ovy is he can keep this kind of pace up for a full season. It's rare to see another scorer do that, so he has to be a huge favorite right now.

Johnny Gaudreau the playmaker joins the crowd at 4 with his 25th.

Hart + Art Ross + Rocket? He still wouldnt be considered a top 10 player .

 

[DitchMarner]

1. Ovechkin: 30 goals
2. Skinner: 28 goals
3. Tavares: 27 goals
4. Several players have 25 goals (MacKinnon, Pastrnak, Landeskog, Pavelski, Gaudreau)

Johnny Gaudreau the playmaker joins the crowd at 4 with his 25th.

Now he has 26.

 

[DitchMarner]

1. Ovechkin: 30 goals
2. Skinner: 28 goals
3. Tavares: 27 goals
4. Gaudreau: 26 goals
5. MacKinnon, Pastrnak, Landeskog, Pavelski: 25 goals

 

[The Jones Zone]

Atkinson's numbers are unsustainable if Torts keeps Panarin on a line with Wennberg and DuClair
Panarin-Wennberg-DuClair line has been really good since He switched them up

Bjorkstrand is on the opposite wing and Atkinson for now, may change when Foligno returns

A small request...

Could the OP and/or any subsequent posters please include Games Played in the stat lines? It does make a difference when following the race
