Buddy, I know we’re all upset.
But just so I understand you, you’re arguing that Gaudreau’s hockey IQ is better than McDavid’s because, and forgive me if I’m misunderstanding, if you exclude the playoff games when he’s scoring 2.06 PPG, McDavid is only a 1.05 PPG player.
So how does Gaudreau’s 0.79 Playoff PPG denote a higher hockey IQ?
Like, if we just take this year, inarguably his best post season, Gaudreau’s PPG is 1.16.
And if we remove his most dominant year as you have for McDavid, Gaudreau’s PPG is 0.63.
And he’s the smarter player? Based on what?
McDavid destroyed us because our goalie is scared of him.
His PPG is 1.05 because his team is run by an even bigger cavalcade of fools than ours, and because even under the best of circumstances, this #### is really hard.
