    Default Nathan MacKinnon - 70 points in first 84 NHL games

    Well, he did it. He did the 'impossible' (impossible according to many of you naysayers). MacKinnon tallied 70 points in his rookie NHL season. He just needed a bonus 2 games to get there


    I trust that if I go bold in future fantasy guides, you'll at least keep an open mind

    I'll admit, I didn't expect this level of play in his first season. As a hockey fan, it's exciting to see another elite player in the mix, but as a Jets fan, I'm scared of what the Avalanche have going for them.

    Great call, Dobber.

    Saw his exploits against the Wild yesterday, and Sakic and Roy are likely licking their lips at the prospect of having this guy for a decade or more. What a precocious talent!!!

    Good for you and all that pat on the back stuff. You were closer than most. But 63 isn't 70. Bold predictions do happen on occasion. And when other people make bold predictions in the hockey world and they come true and it's pointed out, they get trashed on these boards.

    I don't, and never will, want a pat on the back. What I want is for people to put their knives away if i make a bold projection in the future. Please and thank you.

    I didn't project 70, I projected 67. And he got there in 83.2 games.
