Best big-game players currently in the NHL

[NOLAPensFan]

Who you do you think are the best big-game, or money players in the league? Note: I am not asking who the "best" players are, but the most "clutch" or ones that come through in high-stakes situations.

Excluding Pens:

R. Getzlaf
P. Kane
P. Bergeron
J. Williams
D. Doughty
J. Quick
C. Crawford

Thoughts?

Brad Marchand

 

[Bizz]

Thornton, Joe.

 

[Master P]

[Pandaman11]

Bryan Rust

And at the junior level Anthony Cirelli, let's see what he can bring to the NHL

 

[rajuabju]

Justin Williams

 

[PensandCaps]

Malkin and Rust on the Pens.

 

[NOLAPensFan]

Damn, few responses.

I should have created a "biggest chokers in the league" post and watch it turn into a 35-page "is Ovi a choker or not" flame fest

 

[VoluntaryDom]

Johnson

 

[Ryan Michaels]

In the past two regular seasons Kucherov has finally caught up to his playoff dominance. Definitely deserves to be on the list.

Who is mr game 7? Williams or Brown? I know it's stupid but I get them mixed up all the time. Anywho .. that guy

Rust for the pens.

 

[Pengwins]

Crosby, Malkin, and Kessel

 

[Vachon23]

I would add:

Claude Giroux
Jonathan Toews
Mike Cammallari
Duncan Keith
PK Subban
Brent Seabrook

 

[ACC1224]

Soon to be Marner.

 

[Ace Card Bedard]

Definitely Seabrook.

Game 4 Triple OT winner against Nashville in 2015
Game 4 OT winner against Boston in the 2013 Finals
Game 7 OT winner against Detroit in 2013

 

[VanIsle]

Krejci

2011 most points 23
2013 most points 26

Can he do it again with DeBrusk and Rick Nash?

 

[Not So Mighty]

Rakell if we're playing the Oilers.

 

[JAS 39 Gripen]

Soon to be Marner.

Gotta love em leaf fans

 

[NightowlPred]

Colton Sissons

 

[Peat]

Johnson

Good shout. Only Patrick Kane has more GWGs in the last 5 years of play-offs.

 

[Trapper]

Kunitz with the big OT goal against Ottawa last year. He's been pretty clutch. Probably why the Bolts picked him up. That experience.

 

[BigBadBruins7708]

Kessel has to be at the top of the list...no one flips the playoff switch like he does

 

[Ryan Michaels]

Who is mr game 7? Williams or Brown? I know it's stupid but I get them mixed up all the time. Anywho .. that guy

Williams. And yeah, have to think he MIGHT be up there.
