Connor McDavid on track to become fifth player in history to reach a very impressive plateau
Connor McDavid is simply on a mission this season. It seems like it's a repeat of every year, as #97 is far ahead of his closest pursuers.
It's simple, if he stays healthy, it's hard to imagine anyone else scoring more points than him. He is a point machine and this season he has also increased his goal production significantly.
McDavid is on pace for a 66-goal, 150-point season, if the trend continues. In the history of the NHL, only four players have ever reached those two plateaus in the same campaign: Wayne Gretzky (4 times), Mario Lemieux (4 times), Phil Esposito and Bernie Nicholls.
It is obvious that Connor could also win several individual awards at the end of the season, including the Maurice Richard, the Hart, the Hart Ross and the Ted Lindsay. Let's see if he can keep up the pace for the second half of the campaign.
