Connor is closing the gap on Crosby's 'ppg' advantage.


Mcdavid - 1.18

Crosby - 1.21

McDavid's getting stronger as the season progresses. Who knows what his ceiling will be.

wonder what we were giving back? must of been a significant dump.

want no part of that extra year. glad it didnt work out.
besides, might be good for lb to see what a playoff atmosphere looks like.
and maybe get in another game down the stretch. i say give him the avs tomorrow. (still cant figure why they didnt give him the start last night)

I get he's had some rough luck and has some great skills, but how long do we continue to call a guy who has never had a 30 goal season and only two 60 point seasons "one of the best LW in the game"

Palmieri is about to hit 30 goal 55+ point seasons back to back on a poopty Devils squad.

Hall is a very unusual case. He certainly looked like like the best LW between 12/14, but before and after that he seems merely "good" as opposed to elite.

7 years in and I'm still not sure what to think of him.

Palmieri has been a pleasant surprise. I certainly didn't think he'd have this sort of impact after watching him in Anaheim those first few years.

Because the coaches are idiots and never listen to us. LB has a good enough shutout streak going that he should get the start on Saturday. They're almost as good as in .....well in the real world. In EKS world through kings are a real threat as they are poised to win out their remaining 9 games.

And in Ek's world the Oil always lose in the first round. I take comfort that he is predicting such.

It would seem that Hall is then merely one of the better LW's in the game.

Kinda shocked how close Lucic comes in this comparison. I wouldn't have guessed that.

If we drop that to the last 5 seasons, Hall is 4th among LW's in points. Lucic is 14th, but played 44 more games than Hall during that time, too.

- Wildschwein

I don't expect the Oilers to make it out of the first round myself. I just get a kick out of how teams that have played sub .250 hockey in the last couple weeks, are going to go on a .950 run in the last 10 or so games of the season in his predictions.
