Out of Town Scoreboard

No. I admitted that I misread where defensive scoring was going. I admitted being wrong about it. Karlsson was a sign of what was coming and because he looked like an anomaly at the time, I expected his scoring to fall in line with other top offensive defenders. Instead the opposite happened, other top offensive defenders have seen their totals rise to Karlsson like levels.

I was wrong. I'm over it.

Thing is, I don't even think we have seen that.......high scoring offensive totals for a bunch of defensemen over a 30-40 game stretch isn't all that anomalous, (not to mention no one is actually keeping pace with Karlsson offensively this year anyway).....but once we get up to 70-80 games there will be even fewer of them.

Subban looks like the only other realistic option to crack 65 points imo....and Karlsson still looks like the only candidate with the potential to crack 70 or 80.

I think that Subban cracks 70 and Karlsson doesn't crack 80 this year.
 
Subban is the better defenceman when the gap between him and Karlsson isn't as prodigious as it was in 2011-12. When they are producing at comparable levels offensively you have to take P.K. because of his superior all-around game.

Karlsson was the better defender two years ago because their levels of production were so dissimilar. But when it's close you have to go with the jack of all trades blueliner over the more one-dimensional guy.
 
$50



minimum 70 games played by each, 10 point discrepancy can be either actual or pace (ie - if Karlsson finishes with 9 more points, but plays 5 fewer games, I wouldn't lose the bet on semantics)
 
I was think more like $20 on straight points. No pace, no minimum games.

Part of my reasoning for the offer is that I think Subban is more durable and I'm hoping he plays more games.
 
$50 - straight points.


$25 - minimum 70 games played by both of them, 10 point discrepancy can be either actual or pace.





I'm down for either option, if you wanted to pick one.
 
Nah... I'll just stick with our 2 Subban bets, I don't want to go losing too much if I have overrated him.

As long as he scores 65 points and 35 power play points I'm rich!!
 
Johnny Boychuk being stretched off after a fairly innocent hit by Pacioretty. It was boarding, but it seemed like fairly low impact.
