Seems like a good dude. Happy for him.

 

[Wretched Oil]

Thanks TO

 

[Matty Sundin]

Say what you want that it’s only cause of Mcdavid. Scoring 50 is never an easy task.

 

[Strangelove]

Attaboy Zach.

 

[SI90]

Thats awesome for him! Hes in Edmonton and he’s finally unleashed!

 

[Sniper99]

Congrats Zach! f*** the doubters and the haters 50 is 50 no matter who he plays with

Most hockey fans have an appalling lack of understanding that it takes a special kind of talent to develop and maintain chemistry with the best player in the world.

Between him and Reinhart there’s a couple guys I wouldn’t have expected to ever get 50 goal seasons.

Congrats to Hyman and hopefully Reinhart soon too!

 

[Three On Zero]

Probably one of the last players you’d expect to become a 50 goal scorer but still a feat nonetheless. Well done, Hyman

lost the instruction that he was not allowed to look off Matthews in TO

 

[CanadienShark]

Super impressive. Even many more talented players than him couldn't have done it in the same position.

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

Congrats to him, he works really hard and seems to have developed a really nice touch in tight. His game compliments McDavid's game really well.

 

[BobColesNasalCavity]

Only 8 behind Matthews for $6.14m less.

 

[Pukboy5kroner]

Reino wants a word. Why not sign
With Florida?

 

[kugelbahn]

The first jewish player to get 50 goals, right?

 

[jetsforever]

Very unexpected and only possible because of increased leaguewide scoring but good for him

 

[Turin]

Greatest example of the era shift so far.

 

[Joey Moss]

Has to be a top 3 UFA signing of all time..

Chara comes to mind, I can’t think of much else better. Savard was another big one.

Who is the oldest?

It's too bad we lost him in Toronto as a "cap casualty". A decent GM would have been a few million dollars smarter.

He always had the drive and relentless board work in Toronto, but his hands were lackluster. He also had a couple of underwhelming playoff appearances, partially due to injury. It's quite impressive to see how far along his prowess with the puck, near the net, has come along. And past injuries don't seem to be plaguing him at all.

Glad to see him doing well and being a huge net positive in the league.

 

[Bileur]

Incredible. Good for him. I’d never have guessed he could hit those numbers.

Yeah, in general I think people tend to exaggerate the impact of playing with elite players. I'm not saying it doesn't help...believe me, I'm a Hawks fan and not a single one of us will claim Bedard wouldn't have more points right now if he wasn't the only top six forward on the team. I just mean people tend to think the best in the league can turn 4th liners into 1st liners or claim things like "hell, me and my beer league buddies could pot at least 20 in the NHL if we played with McDavid." No you f**king couldn't, shut up.

 

[Junohockeyfan]

Congrats to Connor McDavid for creating a star goals corer in Hyman.

 

[Frank Drebin]

I remember back when he was in Toronto, Leafs fans were trying to say that he was better than Brendan Gallagher. They were wrong then, but now that he's in Edmonton I can see their point
