This years stats are also misleading, just like the stats Panthers' last year when everyone was having career years. I really doubt they will repeat the same kind of regular season next year.

McKinnon was playing behind Duchene because he didn’t deserve to be playing ahead of him.
But points aren’t the end all of a players worth.
It’s hard to imagine that anyone will be better than the current version of McKinnon. That’s just common sense. But Hughes has a chance.
