Jesus Christ Mac, come on, you've got 17 points. You are top 10 in the league in exactly 2 things, with your 1 short handed goal and congratulations on leading the league in hits taken. You're 1st line everything and you still can't average a PPG. You're benefiting from a weak team and a high shot percentage.

Merica has outscored you every single season, and he is having a single off-season and you're trash talking? Keep up some sustained success before you do that. I've got 5 less points than you despite playing 2nd line minutes on powerplay, penalty kill and the every apparent fact I'm a friggan defenseman. What you've done this season isn't exactly brag-worthy.

Up until yesterday, I was 8th in Center scoring and 8th in faceoff percentage (currently 11th by 0.02%) so your timing for your comment worked out well for you.

Benefiting from a weak team and a high shot percentage? Did you really just use that as an argument against myself when Merica was the definition of that upon arrival in Manhattan playing near forty minutes every game? Now that the team isn't weak he is no longer benefiting from it.

Of course he has outscored me every season. He hasn't played below the 2nd line during his career, where I haven't played above 3rd for the vast majority of mine, so what sort of argument are you trying to make here?

Take Merica off the 1st line and PP unit and put him on the third line and the penalty kill for the same times I played all season and I'd bet 10m he could not hit 26 points in a season.
