He won the Hobey Baker as a 20/21 year old. That's barely an accomplishment. Why? Because other skilled 20/22 year olds are playing in the NHL or AHL. It's an entire "who gives a ****" moment but Oilers fans will overhype anything.
At 10 is Scott Pernuovich, thats how thin the list of quality winners is over the years. Add in Howard seeming like he will refuse to learn anything, and he will be watching from the press box or sent to the Condors by Christmas.

Some fans are predicting that Howard will score more goals than Auston Matthews this season, that with Howard on board the Oilers are set up to compete for Stanley Cups into the 2030s. They list off recent Hobey Baker Award winners like, Jack Eichel, Cale Makar, Cole Caufield, Adam Fantilli and Macklin Celebrini.
Man, Oiler fans are ridiculously stupid!! Every off season its the same crap from these mouth breathers!!

Ladies and Gentlemen, we know what the track record is with the Oilers and young players. I look forward to a time 5 years down the road when young Mr Isaac is driving an uber to make ends meet and cursing the day that he signed up with the Oilers who then promptly ruined his development. Then he will go over to his best friend Poolparties house and they will commiserate during an evening of frozen pizza and cosplay minecraft porn.

Notice a pattern? Young winner = good. Caufield had much better stats than Howard when he was a year younger, and Makar was a defenseman, first D winner in 20 years. Howard was better by a slim margin because he was older.
