I'm keeping my eye on Lonzo Ball as he has the same injury and if memory serves right, he got his procedure a few months ahead of Landy so it hopefully can act as an indicator of what's to come because yeah, if that's it for the Captain, that would be a bummer.

[@dw7276]

I love that Draisaitl is finally getting some respect from the hockey community. There are several games where he is the best player on his team, and his playoff performance this last season was ridiculous. Put him on any other team and he would be their best player no question.

[@rob-roymacnaughton]

He was also playing injured. He's that good 👍

[@sportsmaster1364]

Dude, Rantanen had to literally carry the Avs forward corps for a quarter of the season when MacKinnon got hurt (and remember, no Landeskog either), put up over 50 goals and over 100 points, scored his 500th point by going bardownski on an empty-net *from inside his own blueline* and still didn't get enough respect. If he played on a team that didn't have Gabe/MacK/Makar, especially if it were in a market as hockey-crazy as Colorado, he'd be top-10 on so many lists of best players in today's NHL. Criminally underrated player.

[@HolyFrickBro]

I think Adam Fox 100% deserved to be on this list. In my opinion he is the second best defenceman in the league ahead of guys like Mcavoy, Josi and Hedman. Other than that great list though! Can't wait to see more!

I feel like McDavid and Draisaitl right now is what Crosby and Malkin were in the early 2010's. Malkin beat Crosby to the art ross in 08-09 when they both played a full season and people still don't put Malkin on the same level and Ovi and Crosby (granted he doesn't have the longevity they do). McDavid was a big part of the Oilers powerplay this year, but Draisaitl was the one slappin them in most of the time.

Absolutely. Malkin is a top 3 player of his generation. As you mentioned, he spent over a decade as a top 3-5 player every season, and the 2 guys who were consistently better happen to be better than just about everybody in history.

Solid overall. Only argument from me is the lack of Adam Fox, and I'd have Petey top-15 when you take into account not only his offensive game, but that he's also an elite defender.

[@the_dotto]

Fun fact, the pronounciation of MacGuire (or atleast the way you said it in the video) for Mikko Rantanen is actually very close to the original Finnish pronounciation. Instead of the one that is usually used for his name.

[@Yon_Jon5715]

That's a SAD fact, actually: the guy who made the video KNOWING the correct pronunciation of a name, only to mock it & continue by using the incorrect one. There is no such thing as the "American pronunciation" of name. The name is the name.

[@sojiroseta98]

@hockeyhamrin THATS your argument?? You smokin something strong? Ok so lets go with your metric here, the so called 'PP Merchant'. Ok so his competition is what Makar, Mackinnon, Kucherov? I even added Crosby's best 5 point total years...heres a surprising fact (though its only surprising if you just go with narratives) Heres what i confirmed, last 5 point total years (best 5 for Crosby, only 4 for Makar: 1)Makar - 43% of his pts are PP 2)Crosby - 41% of his pts were PP 3) Kucherov - 39% of his pts were PP 4)Draisaitl - 36% of his pts were PP 5)Mackinnon - 35% of his pts were PP So with that said, based on your argument, it seems that despite the fact that all of these players play/played on stacked PPs it seems like Crosby was actually the real merchant of PP as you say, yet he doesnt have that rep....if you actually look at the facts on average most NHL superstars throughout history were in that 35-40% pp points range so that completely destroys this narrative about Leon. I didnt even bother with Matthews because he doesnt even put up enough assists to rank with them. That being said i wouldnt personally judge them on points alone, Leon's playoff performances alone were enough to place him at #2 to begin with...just one example.

I even have Mario over 99 in most ways. He could have caught him if not for a debilitating illness

[@edited1325]

Orr then Lemieux imo

[@Outta-hz1ej]

Gretzky, Lemieux, Orr, Howe, Crosby

@@Outta-hz1ej Gretzky isn’t better than Lemieux or Orr or Mr hockey himself

Jason Robertson 234 points in his first 210 games. Auston Matthews 205 points in his first 212 games. The NHL is just one big popularity contest

[@Nimajneb42069]

Matthews is by far the more complete player if you actually watched and paid attention to what he does on the ice

If Gaudreau bounces back and especially Laine, I wanna see them on top 25 because they will most definitely bounce back

[@Whitesquall123]

Huh? "if" Gaudreau bounces back. Then "they will most definitely" bounce back. Your comment doesn't make a lot of sense.

@@Whitesquall123 The team had a bad season due to Werenski injury and with a powerplant QB the scoring will go back to normal. The whole team just was down this season but with top players playing well they will all be better

[@Whitesquall123]

@@R376yt sure. Whatever you say. I wasn't saying your opinion/prediction was wrong - it's your opinion/prediction. You just wrote "if" then a sentence later you wtote "will most definitely". It's like you came to a conclusion while writing lol.
