Johnny’s been ahead of McDavid before this deep into the season. I remember in seasons past, I believe in both 17-18 and 18-19, Johnny was ahead of McDavid and only second to Kucherov in NHL scoring. It’s always been his rough February and March’s that have killed his pace.
But something tells me he and his line should be fine this season. His current line doesn’t rely on the rush as much as his previous lines did. His current line is just as effective dumping and chasing, checking and creating on the cycle which is how you have to score late in the season.
