Pretty amazing to see how he's ratcheted up across the season. He seems invigorated by the playoff chase and with each goal he scores I'm more certain he's going to be able to do it.

What do you call "current pace"? He's got a few more goals in him this season, wouldn't be surprised to see him hit 30. Absolutely doable in the next 2 seasons.
He's at 20? this season with about 12 games left. So maybe 25 goals this season. So you're right probably only two more seasons. That means staying healthy for them both too. Def doable, but still won't be easy. It's incredible he's almost 50 and still putting up the numbers he does.
Edit: Meant 40 not 50
Not to nitpick, but he's 38 years old, has 23 goals this season, with 14 games left this season.
wrote 50 meant 40, thanks for the correction
Absolutely. His style is perfect for longevity but at his age, he has to stay vigilant both on and off the ice.
