40 goals. This brand is a milestone in the best league in the world. Since April 6, 2023, Appenzeller Timo Meier (26) is the first Swiss to belong to this elite circle of snipers, which guarantees eternal fame and a well-filled bank account.
Snipers are divided into categories: 20, 30, 40, 50. 30 goals are essential for higher initiations, 40 goals are a special position attribute. Breaking through the 50s is tantamount to entering the NHL history books.
60 and more goals are an award, almost the medal of the garter for strikers, reserved for active players for exceptions such as Connor McDavid (26, Edmonton), Auston Matthews (25, Toronto), Steven Stamkos (33, Tampa Bay) or Alex Ovechkin (37, Washington).
When Meier scored his 40th goal against Columbus, he is one of 11 players (out of just over 900 players) to reach that goal this season.
After moving from the west to the east coast, the huge winger first had to reorient himself: there are symmetries between the San Jose Sharks (where Meier played from 2016 to 2023) and New Jersey, but there is also a big difference: both organizations have missed the playoffs more often lately, but unlike the Sharks, the Devils have orchestrated a sustainable rebuild. Talents like Nico Hischier (24) and the fantastic Jack Hughes (21) can carefully thrive in the Garden State – the still inexperienced team still easily qualified for the playoffs.
In New Jersey, Meier has probably found a good breeding ground for further record seasons, it should have been decided in advance that he would get a new contract here. As an unsigned player with certain restrictions, his next employer must, according to the collective agreement, offer him at least one season in the summer as much as he last earned: $ 10 million.
Whether Meier still had to convince – with this goal against Columbus he answered the last remaining questions.
