I think they both have the same offensive touch but Cooke is more dangerous.
Marchand's closest comparable in the league right now is Hartnell
His closest comparable in the league is Brendan Gallagher IMO.
Clarke, Mikita, Fleury.
Plenty of pests at a higher level than Marchand.
Speed, puck possession, grittiness. You can get worked up about ultimate quality of player, but stylistically, not so different. Most of the time, when you get a forward who plays with an edge, they're bigger and/or more of a goal-scorer than puck-handler, so the list of comparables isn't that long.
Neither are as dirty as Marchand.
First name that comes to my mind is Pat Verbeek.
I never considered Fleury a pest, but guess some might. His pestiness is much lesser than Marchand's, but I guess as a hockey player they do have many same elements in their game.
Mikita won Lady Byng twice...
You wouldn't seriously claim that Bobby Clarke's main feat was being a pest?
His closest comparable in the league is Brendan Gallagher IMO.
