5 sog too! Loving it
Yeah, right, nothing special at all, lots of 21-year olds put up 11 goals and 19 points in their first 25 games as rookies.
You're such a clown, Ev. You should reserve your comments for subjects you actually know something about, like eating and sleeping.
You have a different opinion than me? Better tell you you're stupid and don't know anything because I can't handle an oppposing view of my precious player!
I know he played 10 games last year, he's on my team, I know all his stats.. He's a rookie according to the league's definition, having played less than 25 games entering the season.

"Rookie Qualifications
To be considered a rookie, a player must not have played in more than 25 NHL games in any preceding seasons, nor in six or more NHL games in each of any two preceding seasons. Any player at least 26 years of age (by September 15th of that season) is not considered a rookie."
You're trying to criticize diction because you need to distract from the fact that you are wrong on the substance of the issue and are a loathsome troll who is despised by everyone on this forum.
He had another couple of high danger chances in close to the net too that he didn't quite convert on. Kid is always around the net and has a nose for the puck. Hopefully the good times keep rolling.
Ev, nobody said Mantha is going to be a superstar. Doug said he is "doing something special." Do you really have to take issue with that? Producing at a 36 goal / 62 pt pace as a rookie and being a +11 while doing it on a team that is last in their division and 24th in the league in goals for IS "doing something special." He didn't say that Mantha himself is special or that he will sustain his production. He just observed that what he is doing right now is special. Ask Detroit fans if they agree with him.... I doubt you will hear a single "no."
You are picking a silly thing to take issue with, I think.
^^Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamen
I traded mantha + senyshyn + zboril for Pulju + Max Jones + 2017 2nd, 2018 1st and 2018 3rd and i'm already starting to regret it since Mantha looks so good and Edmonton is not letting Poolparty play anywhere :'(
