Your channel has helped me immensely since I've gotten seriously into hockey over the last 2 months. I mean I've have been a casual Anaheim fan since 2014, however, I've really fallen in love with the sport after watching countless NHL games, listening to podcasts, youtube videos, playing NHL 19 & 20 and Eastside Hockey Manager. Your commitment to your channel and the community is a special thing dude, keep the great content coming along. Go Ducks! Much love from Northern Ireland.

[@BrodieBr0]

Nice list, my fav players are not always star players either. Hard working players, team players and the guys that just seem to be good people on and off the ice I love cheering for. Always loved Zucc, for the same reasons you do. He plays a BIG game much more than his size and has skill as well. I'll follow him no matter what team he plays for.

[@quinnlee1943]

I'd say Malkin or Tavares is the best second line center in the league but thanks for the video Shannon!

[@HorseshoeCrab1998]

Quinn Lee don't forget Pavelski in Dallas, he's probably playing second line behind Seguin

[@LeCapitalsRMNB]

Quinn Lee Backstrom better than both

[@scorpiothegreat1]

Backstom isn’t bad either

[@person7584]

Quinn Lee Tavares is usually a first liner with Mathews on the second

[@bjornsundstrom4915]

RhyperiorSuperior Backstrom is my favourite player of all time but I don’t think he’s better than Malkin. That’s just reaching a bit too far imho. Also Backstrom being second line center is debatable as well, I think he prob played more in the first line than second this year

[@Kyt2024]

Pesce maybe but I don't think anyone is underrating Slavin these days. People are aware how good he is.

[@reignofrock]

Ducks: Miller. Could not agree more. I see him doing another year after this. He is soooo underrated. Cyotes: Raanta. He had an injury riddled season but when he's on, he is something else. Bruins: Bergeron. He does it all and is an impeccable leader. The character and talent are equal. Sabres: Reinhart. Agree for the third time. Whilst not being the center, he sure feels like the anchor to that line. Flames: Brodie. He does so much behind the scenes for the team, it's ridiculous. Backbone outside Giordano. I PAUSED THE VIDEO TO WEIGH IN WITHOUT YA! Canes: Slavin. Guy is just starting to get recognized but any team would be lucky to have him. Blackhawks: Toews. Sure, his offense is down, but there is no doubt his leadership is holding that team together. Avalanche: Landeskog. I've admired his play for years, great to see him taking the reins. Still doesn't get enough credit. Blue Jackets: Seth Jones. One of the best d-men in the league all-around. Hope injures don't come again. Stars: Radulov. The guy fights hard as hell every minute and makes Seguin and Benn look lazy. Amazing. Red Wings: Zetterberg.. oh wait. Athanasiou. He seems to be coming into his own and could go real far. Oilers: McDavid. 'Nuff said. Panthers: Huberdeau. Barkov is the pop. name, but I love the work ethic of the aforementioned. Kings: Doughty. If there is a consistent and pounding heart to that team through all diversity, it's him. Wild: Dumba. Going to be the future top d-man and is developing well. Canadiens: Kotkaniemi. Just the potential and drive. Going to be the future #1 center IMO. Predators: Josi. Had to be. What an amazing player, leader and defensemen. Easily their best. Devils: Hall. A talent unleashed foolishly by Edmonton. Or smart if you consider the future cap hit. Islanders: Nelson. What can I say, always loved his play. Sure, he's been inconsistent, but maybe it's time he kept it up. Rangers: Lundqvist. The King still reigns for me. Backbone for one of my favorites. He'll bounce back. Senators: Anderson. Say what you will, but that guy is one of the few pieces that makes that horrid team respectable. Flyers: Giroux. Guy is so under the radar in comparison to other superstars. But man, he still blows me away. Penguins: Malkin. How can you not? He's like Crosby but uninhibited. Just guns it. Sharks: LaBanc. His work ethic alone. And that contract.. Real character. Guy will only get better. Blues: Perron. Surprised myself. But c'mon, he's a real leader. Digs in deep and fights hard for the puck in any circumstance. Lightning: Point. So unassuming. Kid keeps a low-profile on the ice and it almost seems like he sneaks up on the opposition. Leafs: Matthews. I would have picked one of their recent acquisitions, didn't seem right. His talent is undeniable. Canucks: Markstrom. I never viewed him as a starter a few years ago. He is a damn good one these days. Knights: Marchessault. I was blown away when Florida let him go. Loved him in Florida and was miffed. Great player. Capitals: Ovechkin. Been a fan since his first game. Loved the Caps since '98. Favorite team. He CAN beat Gretzky. Jets: Roslovic. Love his potential and heart. Wait.. no one is going to read this. Oh well.

[@Habu12]

Fallsy (Iafallo) was an undrafted NCAA player. He basically got a walk on at camp two years ago, and he’s been nothing but a bloodhound on the puck ever since. Yes, all he needs is the right identity, as does the whole team, and he should just shoot into orbit. Being on the top line with Kopi and Brownie has helped a lot. Consistency, it must come. Soon,

[@Mr.Pants45]

As a Blues fan I have two things to say. Tarasenko is a great player and you are right about his hot and cold streaks when it comes to scoring but if you really watch him even during his cold streaks, he is a gritty player. He does some ridiculous moves to keep the puck in the zone, to get the puck to another player and to keep the play going, I think his tenacity gets overlooked because people expect him to put up points but if you really watch him, you'd realize he always plays with a lot of heart. That being said, Parayko is the most beloved player on the blues by die hard fans. He's a gentle giant that hardly ever makes mistakes. He has incredible hockey sense and when he gets a chance to shine, he does, example is the OT winner against the Avalanche this past season. I understand why youd pick Tarasenko but if you ask any true blues fan, they will tell you Parayko is the fan favorite right now.

[@patch8376]

Hmm...off the top of my head... Gibson Kuemper Wagner Skinner Giordano Slavin Lehner Girard Anderson Bishop Athanasiou Nurse/Draisaitl (Tough, and of course I like McDavid.) Acciari (now) Doughty Dumba Byron, and thank you for mentioning him! Armia's a fine choice, in my opinion, and for what it's worth Juulsen, who I just hope can get and stay healthy. Arvidsson Hischier/Subban Cizikas Zibanejad Duclair, fine case for Chabot though. But when Duclair's good (which is inconsistent), he's damn exciting to watch. Sanheim Hornqvist Hard not to say Couture after the playoff he had Parayko Gourde Rielly Markstrom Stone/Marchessault (Both are on a short list of favorite players, hard to pick one over the other.) Kuznetsov Scheifele It's fun to talk about favorite players. Thinking of these guys made me happy, and eager to watch them next season.

[@patch8376]

Honorable mention to Casey De "Little touch o' Battlin' Billy" Smith in Pittsburgh. I'm not saying I'm a fan of Battlin' Billy's brand of netminding, who's a bit before my time anyway, but in this current era of crashing creases with reckless abandon and it being open season on goaltenders I can appreciate Casey's sneaky little combos of junk-bound jabs and shimmy shoves in between saves when opposition gets too close for comfort.

[@bozo8603]

Keep preaching about Horvat. When Horvat hit 400 faceoffs this year, nobody else in the league had hit 300. This was due to injuries to both the 3rd and 4th line centres, and the fact that Pettersson (who had played RW the year before in Sweden) hadn't gotten the hang of faceoffs yet. The team relied on Bo for virtually every faceoff in that stint and he ended up finishing the season with the most in the NHL. He won 53.67% of those. More than that, with Pettersson taking the 1C position and with Horvat losing both linemates from the year before (Boeser stayed on 1st line with Pettersson and Baertschi was injured) he still managed to put up a career year. Favourite Canuck hands-down. He had a rotating carousel of dozens of line combinations this year but managed to make it work. He's solid at both ends of the ice. An absolute Swiss army knife. He just keeps getting a little bit better year after year.

[@andrewpoole160]

Love your thoughtful analysis. Thanks so much

[@tomashogberg8514]

Not that anyone cares, but here's my list in the same team order: Silfverberg Huh, I guess now id' be 'Big Carl' Pastrnak, my favourite player in the league. So enjoyable to watch! Ristolainen Gaudreau, no doubt. Pure ice hockey magic! Aho Gustafsson (Lehner could put a fight though next season!) Landeskog, every day Bjorkstrand Heiskanen Larkin, maybe? Or Athanasiou. Draisaitl Probably Barkov? Oh, or Acciari or Strålman nowadays! Kovalchuk Zuccarello, with an honourable shout out to Fiala Kinkaid, but gonna say Tatar so people don't @ me lol Arvidsson, surely! Love myself som Josi, Järnkrok, Rinne and Saros though Wow, the Devils are shaping up Gonna say Palmieri, but could've been Hischier or Bratt too Greiss, I think Zibanejad, absolutely! Panarin is my bev too though Chabot Voráček Hörnqvist Hertl Sundqvist Gah how does one choose! Let's say Kucherov, but also Vasilevskiy and Hedman for one from each position :') Marner Markström! One of my favourite goalises since first seeing him play in Brynäs way back Gusev, hands down! Bäckström! Also an absolute favourite since Brynäs, possibly the most underrated player in the league. - To be fair though, keeping Hagelin makes for some competition - Fun fact: Silfverberg and Järnkrok are also fomer Brynäs players, and I'm not even rooting for Brynäs! :P - Fun fact 2: I am rooting for Djurgården, which might have influenced my choices of Gustafsson, Landeskog, Zibanejad and Hörnqvist. Lastly, I'm going for Ehlers Maybe a bit Swedish-biased, but these truly are the players in the league I like the most from each team. If you read all of this, just why man? Cheers!

@@yourboyandy1485 Laine has progressed so much. Only if he had played this kind of hockey last year.. The contract woulda been +10m$/y, I'm sure. Good for Jets that they didn't have to pay him that, but as a Finn I still wish he got that bag. Not like 6-7mils is bad though...

[@luigidelrosario3163]

Hey let's go former Jet Armia, miss him, I remember that sick Deke and goal play he made against either New Jersey or Detroit. Montreal should be thankful for hin, he's got the dekeing and the shot

Shannon, I’ve only been following you for about 2 or 3 months, but I absolutely love your content. Where I live it’s difficult to get many opinions on hockey pertaining to many teams. While I don’t 100% agree with every opinion of yours, you do a great job backing them all up. Also, the ones I disagree with are far and few in between. This has quickly become one of my favorite go to KZbin channels and I look forward to all your content. As a Stars fan it’s hard to disagree with Faksa. I love the big 3 on defense almost all equally, but as far as forwards are concerned no one gives the effort he has. Dickinson probably can and will in a more consistent role, but we’ll have to see if he ever gets one in Dallas.

[@joepettibone]

Vatrano is one of my all time favorites. I met him once and he was a really nice guy and signed my shirt. As a Bruins fan, I,miss him playing for the Bruins

[@eddixon2015]

Happy Birthday Shannon!

It's ok shannon I couldn't pick my most favorite hurricane either. I love them all 😌

[@sentanyl3399]

Couldn't agree more about Couturier. He's definitely one of the most underrated players in the league. Even before the last two season where he started putting up more points, he's been such a good center for a while now. He just does so many things right with or without the puck, and his hustle and effort are top flight every shift.

[@bengalytsbestpunter7039]

When I noticed the black cat at the bottom around the 2:00 mark I couldn’t take my eyes off of that location. Regardless, good video THG!

Armia was a good pickup by Mtl, i knew he was a solid 3rd line guy but he as skills to put 40-45 points a year, he as excellent puck handling and puck protection, hes really solid on the boards and hes so heavy on the ice no one can move him, my fav on the Canadiens with Lehkonen and Petry

[@ssc00p]

In Finland, before coming into NHL rinks, Armia was actually somewhat a star player, first line points scorer... I think the skill is there... is it just about the coaches that would give some offensive liberties and be creative...

I 100% agree with schneider as your devils favorite. take back the last two years of his career, and you see how great his stats are and how low his goals against was a few years ago, even with his horrifically shitty d line in front of him. and then you jump back to the playoffs vs the lightning and the games he played this season after january. he’s still got it. and I hope he wins everyone’s hearts back this season
