Marner to Matthews... This is a recording lol

 

[dalewood12]

Well, the race was exciting while it lasted.

 

[Subbanned]

Matthews best goal scorer in world AINEC just facts

 

[Arthur Morgan]

Well. That's that.
Sorry OV the new Mac Daddy is in town

 

[Dustin]

I wonder what he will win by? It seems the last couple have been pretty tight races.

 

[WillTheThrill]

Unbelievable how good this guy is, Mitch and him are magic

 

[Snipes45]

VERY IMPRESSIVE By Matthews

When is the last time somebody had his goals per game rate?

It's insane. It's like what mcDavid is doing with his points, but with goals lol

This is probably going to be one of the most lopsided we have seen man

 

[Advanced stats]

What race?

Auston Matthews is currently scoring at a higher pace that any of Ovechkin's seasons.

 

[Jesus Is Lord]

It's over. I just wish we could see how many he'd have without the wrist injury and without Marner holding him back quite a bit.

Ovi had 65 in 2007

Matthews is a phenom though

Did you seriously suggest Marner is a NEGATIVE to Matthews success?

Matthews with 66 goals in his last 82GP. Loses the Rocket by 1 goal last season and is about to win it by a landslide this year.

His G/GP rate is in HOF company to start his career. Unstoppable goal scorer.

This puts Matthews at 38 in 47 . A 66 goal pace. So technically the poster is correct .

Ah I was using 36 goals based on nhl.com I think and not 38

How does Marner hold him back? I see him set up matthews a lot. Great chemistry.

Unstoppable

Matthews > Everyone in the NHL


Matthews has scored 66 goals in the last 82 games. Yeah...

 

[BoredBrandonPridham]

Ovi had 65 in 2007

Matthews is a phenom though

* with 75% more power play time

 

[authentic]

He has 2 this game so far. Could be 39 before the end of it.

Maybe not all year but definitely the last half of the season. Instead of hitting a wide open Matthews he tries a toe drag and turns it over. Many missed open cross seam passes where Marner decides to shoot his muffin shot instead of hit Matthews. Happens quite a lot. I do believe Matthews would currently have 50 were it not for this.

If Gretzky was on his line, he probably would have more.
