Pastrnak's linemates are going to be 35 and 32 next year; there's only so long they will maintain at the same level. Keefe also isn't the dinosaur that Babcock was. Matthews should enjoy more opportunity moving forward; it already started this year. Players also usually improve from their pre-prime levels through their primes, especially from a relatively down year affected by a lot of external factors.
I actually haven't talked about Pastrnak's first 2 seasons at all.
He's a great player, and I chose Pastrnak for this poll, but lol, no.
Marchand is literally coming off his second season in a row on pace for 100 points, and Bergeron just had his third 30 goal season in a row. You guys have been predicting there demise every year for 3 years now. I don't see them falling immediately off a cliff like you guys predict every year. Maybe next season Pasta will play as much as Matthews currently does.
