Look at all these players already... Nutivaara, Malgin, Cirelli, Dunn, Carlo, Aho, Fischer, Beauvillier, Roslovic, Konecny, Boeser, Eriksson Ek, Chabot, Connor, Barzal, DeBrusk, Rantanen, Meier, Werenski, Provorov, Zacha, Hanifin, Marner, Strome, Eichel and Connor McJesus

Personally I don't know any better draft class and it's only 3 years!

My top5 at the moment:

Connor McJesus
Ranty the bull
Aho the professor
Yichel
Big Z

2003 and 1979 both say hi.

1979 - Bourque, Messier, Gartner, Propp, Hunter, Broten, Carbonneau, Anderson, and if not for the WHA could've had Gretzky

also 1983 was loaded: Yzerman, Hasek, LaFontaine, Neely, Tikkanen, Tocchet, Fetisov, Makarov

team of just 2003 draftees (some are out of position because there were a million centers)

Pavelski - Bergeron - Perry
Parise - Getzlaf - Eriksson
Carter - Backes - Staal
Horton - Kessler - Vanek

Weber - Sutter
Burns - Buff
Seabrook - Enstrom

Crawford
MAF

It’s way way way to early to tell. There’s going to be some guys that fall off way sooner than you expect.

Think Rick Nash or Mike Richards.

I think 15 will be better than 03. The others will be difficult to top. It’d go a long way if Eichel ends up living up to the hype.

1) McDavid
2) Barzal
3) Eichel
4) Aho (keep it up as a center and he's #2 by years end)
5) Rantanen

Hm to Marner and Werenski

Pretty much this. Might swap Marner for Rantanen but that's debatable.
