Think of how much better the PP would be if he didn't kill the break-in every time the player carrying the puck with speed dished it to him on the blueline.

Will Steven Stamkos Stay in Tampa?

Right. He'll be up there, but this whole debate started with me pushing back on "garunteed best player in the league within 3 years."
-
Those 100 and 108 point seasons both won him the scoring title. Kucherov just had a career year at 30. Panarin at 32. It's more crazy to think McDavid will stop scoring than it is to think he'll keep this pace for 3 more years.
-
For me to call Bedard the best player in the league he needs to win multiple scoring titles. That's not happening in 3 years. McDavid won 5 of the last 7 and the two years he didn't win he was 2nd.

Yea. Totally a shame that covid cut two of those years short and you're gonna nit pick another over 123 points in 80 games.
-
His career pace is 125 points per 82 games.
-
This is what I'm talking about. That year, 2021-22, Gaudreau and Huberdeau were tied for 2nd behind him. Are they in the convo for best player in the league? I can know what he'll look like at 30. This isn't an average player. He's going to keep scoring 125+ points per year well into his 30s.
-
This has nothing to do with the best player in the league. McDavid does it every year. He won the scoring title 5 of 9 years he's been in the league. A one off year for someone else doesn't make the they best player in the league. McDaivd also missed 6 games which cost him about 10 points off his total.
-
The gap isn't closing and the two guys that managed to match him this year are older than he is.
-
Best player in the league doesn't change year to year. He has 140 more points than the next closest guy since he came into the league.
-
Is McDavid retiring?
