Points for Matthews

[Pavel Buchnevich]

yes, that rules out him getting 117 goals. good point

With a normal SH%, he'd be just over 1PPG. Doing very well, but 70-90 points is the range as of now.

 

[MoreMogilny]

expecting matthews to miss some time?

Nah I never predict injuries.

What’s wrong with 85 points?

 

[VinikToWinIt]

from 16pts in 7 games, to 64 over the last 75


sure bud!

You're going to be pretty disappointed when you find out point accumulation isn't linear.

You're going to be pretty disappointed when you find out point accumulation isn't linear.

Yeah I really don’t understand it when people project this way.

Over the course of a season, you’ll see stretches of up and down production.

Sooner or later, Matthews will slump below his average level of production for the entire season. It’s inevitable.

 

[Hagged]

Sooner or later he will enter a hot streak. If that happens within a few weeks, I'm hoping for a 200 point season.

 

[Apotheosis]

One of the top 3 5v5 point producers in the league with next to no good PP unit and a lot less PP time than other stars is now getting the bulk of the PP time, doesn't have the worst 1st liner for converting chances in the entire league (literally anyone McDavid/Mackinnon/Malkin/Crosby have played with still have better players than Hyman), somehow is going to go down to PPG despite him pacing for PPG last year over 60 games with said ES bulk production? Okay HF.

 

[Mcnotloilersfan]

95-105. Will finish top 10 in scoring for sure

 

[olli]

I'd be surprised if he got 50 goals unless he starts shooting a lot more. That being said I think he'll get around 45 /45 for about 90 points.

 

[SullivanT]

infinity!


Nuh said.

 

[Shayne Corsi]

Taking into account his hot start and other--albeit soft--factors (twice as much PP time with better personnel, year over year improvement, etc.), I think the 90 point range is a reasonable bet (50-40 or so).

 

[Mountlaine]

Easily over 100.

 

[Filatov2Kovalev2Bonk]

Over 90. Mid 90's seems realistic. Obviously 134 would be ideal for karmic purposes, but that's unlikely.
Probably more than Matt Duchene with a less rounded game, so we'd be willing to listen on the trade front.

 

[SotasicA]

68 points in 72 games.

I think I'm confident with this.

 

[Gabranth]

70 counting the injuries

 

[McJesusSaves97]

65-70 same as usual...

 

[McDavidCrushedLarkin]

62

 

[Soliloquy of a Dogge]

If healthy between 80-90, which will likely be his consistent range throughout his career.

If the shoulder injury keeps him out for a few weeks, 60-70.

 

[780il]

90-100 points is where I see him at

 

[ole ole]

from 16pts in 7 games, to 64 over the last 75


sure bud!

Well he's gone from 16 pts in 7 games to 16 pts in 11 games.

 

[McJC]

AM34 sure is a streaky scorer. Multi-point games in the first 7 to goose eggs in the last 4.
