Gunner and Targaryen on the verge of history

[Victor 11,143]

The most playoff points in a single post-season was a record proudly owned by yours truly (Alexander Chershenko) for nearly 50 seasons – 36 points in 21 games back in S34. Then came the fraudulent Vancouver threepeat of S80-S82, during which Jerome Reinhart scored a whopping 52 points in S81 (including 28 goals), obliterating the long-standing. But being meta-boosted and all, Chershenko still had a claim to fame even after that.
 

Until this season. Axle Gunner and Severus Targaryen have 44 and 39 points, respectively, a hugely impressive haul even with the 3-game statpad session against Prague in the wildcard round and still have at least 3 games to add to it. Chershenko's record has fallen for good and Gunner in particular has a shot to even beat Reinhart's mark. It will be fascinating to see how the Kanou Trophy discussion this season unfolds, regardless of which one of Seattle and Riga triumphs.
 

But that is not all. Gunner, already a former playoff MVP, had 60 combined points across his previous cup-winning campaigns of S94 and S95. Combined with this season and his less successful playoff stints, he is on 56 goals and 127 points for his career. That's 4 goals away from John Locke's all-time record and most impressively, only 3 points away from Scotty Campbell's 130 career playoff points. History seems to be in the making for this future Hall of Famer and it's not just through sheer number of games – Gunner's 1.53 point-per-game mark puts him 13th all time (although pleasingly, at least in this he is just behind Chershenko for now).

Gunner now needs 3 goals to tie Locke and 1 point to tie Campbell! At least one more game to go. Unreal!

But... he has one more season left as well!
