    Not looking good. Unless NHL '13 goals count.

    Crosby and Malkin are going to defecate all over the league this season. Crosby is the only player who has a minimal chance to get 50, but I don't see it happening. Stamkos won't have enough empty netters over the shortened season to boost his goal totals. Malkin is going to dazzle, don't be surprised if he or Crosby get 80 points.

    That would be impressive. Hopefully Crosby doesn't run into any concussion issues.

    Personally I would love to see someone score 50 goals this shortened season, but even 40 goals could be a stretch. The only way I see it happening is if goalies start falling for Sega Gensis NHL '93 deke or out of the corner move. If this happens all bets are off!

    I think Stamkos is the only ''reasonable'' option here.
    Crosby could put up 75 points, but not 50goals.
    Weekly H2H points only (Year 9 - 2015-16)
    12 teams limited keeper (keep 6 + 1 Rookie)
    13 round draft - Unlimited Trades - No Waivers - No IR
    4 Team Playoffs (last 2 reg. season weeks)
    Rookies are 23 years old or younger in the draft year and never reached 60pts (forward), 40pts (defense), 25 wins (goalie)


    Start : C RW LW Utility D D G
    Points : A - G = 1 pt W = 2 pts SO = 1pt

    C - S.Stamkos, J.Thornton, K.Turris, D.Stepan
    LW - O.Palat, B.Saad, A.Burakovsky
    RW - B.Wheeler, T.Toffoli, C.Atkinson
    D - E.Karlsson, S.Gostisbehere, C.Fowler, A.Ekblad, A.Larsson
    G - C.Hellebuyck, D.Dubnyk, A.Niemi, K.Lehtonen

    Crosby rocked 32 goals in 41 games back in 2010-11, which is close enough to get him in the running. Granted Stamkos is still the best option I still think Crosby is within the realm of possibility if we are even considering such an outlandish feat is possible.

    I am going on the record right now setting the over / under for the highest goal scorer in the NHL this year at 42 goals. Do you want the over or the under?

    Actually, 42 is probably way too high LOL. That prorates to like a 71 goal full season. How long has it been since anybody scored 71 in a season?

    That's 72 goals in a regular season... I think I'll bet the farm on under

    under. easy.

    only two players scored 42 goals last year in 82 games.

    nobody is scoring 42 goals and 50 is not even worth talking about.
