Doesn’t matter. Kucherov has the Ross.
0 pts and minus 2, fwiw for McLuckyLottoBalls

The best part is the achievement of 100 assists gets overshadowed and commoditized within the week by Kucherov.

Originally it was rumoured that McDavid would rest tonight. Curious to see if Kucherov being ahead on the all-time assists per season list at the moment changes that.

Not that I would ever wish it (out loud anyway) but rushing back from injury for an individual stat award, only to get injured before playoffs feels like it would be the most McDavid thing ever

Not sure what you mean. They are tied at 100 for this season, and McDavid has more career assists. And more assists per game.

I just mean most lists have Kucherov first, I'm assuming they revert to alphabetical, or overall points? Not sure, but even if you look at NHL.com they are tied but have Kucherov listed first. Even hockey reference has Kucherov first, we'll see how petty McDavid is.

Hopefully Vegas beats Anaheim tonight and then they destroy the Grease in round 1.

Glad Vegas is getting a few reps in with their new & injured players to be set to destroy the Oilers.

I'm actually shocked there hasn't been more "but in fewer games" crap from Oilerland.

Because they know McDavid pumped his own assists by not shooting and choosing the pass option everytime. He'll finish with the lowest goals since his first 2 seasons.

Kucherov on the other hand still filled the net, scoring a career-high 44 goals. He also has 1:12 les TOI/GP.

It's clear who the best offensive player in the world is. Sorry McLoser.

Oilers fans have no class, but are the first to cry when the skate is on the other foot.

No Class No Good Oilers they are. They make sick to my stomach!

That's probably because they put their skates on with the blade pointing up.

Oilies fan in the row in front tries to get in on the chant but it’s too complicated.

And buddy is only doing the chant as he looks around to make sure he’s in a group of…what’s the collective noun…safely in the middle of a stink of oilers fans.

Oilers putting their starter in a meaningless game with 7 regular out, then have to pull him after he having a sub .700 sv%. They might as well start Pickard in the playoff.

It wasn't completely meaningless. If they meet Colorado in the playoffs, Colorado will have home ice now. The Oilers are a good home team and an average road team so that's not nothing. They'll have to get to Colorado first but if they do, tonight's game mattered.
