<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Rangsey</b></div><div><strong>Era adjusting anything is dumb and inaccurate.</strong> Matthews would never have scored 70 goals in the 80s because Arizona didn't have a team and he would have been a chain smoking baseballer.

Can we all just admit that this season we're seeing special players do special things non of us have ever seen before. How many folks on this site were old enough to appreciate what Selanne and Mog did.

Matthews <strong>might</strong> be the next Ovi. He <strong>might</strong> be the next Bossy. But he's the first AustonMatthews and even tho he's a Leafs fan that's impressive.</div></div>

I will agree partially, we don't really need era adjusted stats for anything however, everyone knows hockey has evolved and we as fans continually compare players performance to someone in the past and in that way, make era adjusted stats an important thing to know, you cannot compare Mogilny and Phil Esposito's 76 goal season as equal due to hockey evolving during that 23 year span

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Leafsfan98</b></div><div>Obviously all 4 are impressive...

But don't you think all 3 of them doing the same thing (hitting 130+points) would spread out their voters compared to Matthews hitting 70...

And when was the last time a player hit 70+ where the hart trophy winner didn't get 50+? Mark Messier and Selanne?</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Rangsey</b></div><div>What Matthews is doing is impressive.
McDavid put up an insane amount of points last year but before the the last time someone hit 130pts was Mario Lemieux and we've got three guys doing it this year. All four guys are doing insane things someone is gonna miss out.

McDavid 4th player ever to crack 100 assists is the more impressive than Matthews goals. And Matthews goals are amazing.</div></div>

it's not just that he'll be the 4th guy in NHL history to crack 100 assists...it's who the other four are. Wayne Gretzky, Mario Lemieux, Bobby Orr. So the first three guys that are usually mentioned as the best player in league history. its mcdavid. no question.

Sujet: Restructuring the Wild Card Race.
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Rangsey</b></div><div>The timezone change alone make it an issue. It would be an advantage to finish second in the league than travel est to pst 4 time in a week and a half.

I don't think there's anything wrong with the current playoff setup. It makes for better matchups in the first round. Sure there's some quirks with the bottom of the metro, but that would still exist in your proposed system.

The east wild card race this year is actually pretty compelling.

The change I would like to see happen is the weighting of the schedule. The last 10 games should all be inter divisional games. This would make every game in the end of the season 4 point games and increase the likelihood of winner take all games down the stretch. It almost becomes a play in round without a play in round.</div></div>

I actually like the inter divisional weighting towards the end of the season. That accomplishes the goal I was really trying to achieve just in a different manner.
