Do you consider Draisaitl, Matthews, Ovechkin and Pastrnak the best 4 goal-scorers in the league?

This post is lazy, clueless, and uninformed. Well done.

Yeah okay.

In terms of pure ability to score goals, Ovechkin got slightly outdone by Matthews and Pastrnak this past season, but he still reigns supreme overall. It takes more than slightly besting the reigning champion to take their throne. Plus he's the GOAT goal scorer too. Then after those three, Draisaitl probably has as good a claim as anyone to the #4 spot.

I don't get what Pastrnak has done to solidify himself as a top 5 goal scorer in the league. He placed 10th in goals in 2017 and hasn't done it since. Even just going by GPG, he only finished 4th last season and there's no way of knowing if he would have kept that up.

He has started this hot before. The only difference is that he is matching his goals with an equal amount of assists. Last season, he lead the league through 20 games with 17 goals and he slowed down considerably. I would expect the same this season as his shooting percentage is more than double his career average. He's a great player but he still needs to do it for a whole season before placing him with the other guys.

Leaving assists out of it... here are the Top 10 goal scorers from the last 2 seasons (2018/19 to today):
