Re: Wisconsin Hockey G2O - Making UW Hockey Great Again
Knowing both guys and since they entered the NHL at the same time, I've always kept track of how close their stats are. Joe's stats are very close to Phil Kessel's, but we hear more about Phil for some reason. (One guess for me is east coast vs. west coast.)
In 817 games Joe: 298 goals + 339 assists = 639 points.
In 845 games Phil: 300 goals + 362 assists = 662 points.
With a 28 game difference, I'd **** near call it a draw. Quite amazing considering publicity.
I think Pavelski has a chance at that. He's got 68+ points, per year, for the last 4 years. Here's hoping that he gets at least another 4 or 5 years in the league.
