Hardest working skill player?

#87

 

[Nadal On Clay]

Yeah Crosby is the answer here.

Generational work ethic.

 

[Brucelenok]

Currently - probably Crosby. Bunch of players themselves said who played with him in one team.

All Time - Brind'Amour (gym rat according to his teammates) & Jagr AINEC

 

[ProspectsSTC]

Crosby and Radulov for sure

 

[7even]

How do you measure that? And where does it reach a potentially unhealthy level?

He's spent $7000 on HUT already

 

[LarKing]

I mean, most of the best players work really hard...

Yes but my team’s best player outworks yours every day of the week.

 

[behemolari]

Does Fortnite count?

 

[Kcb12345]

Radulov is for sure up there

Plays so hard every shift that he takes so many penalties because of how aggressive he is on the puck lol

 

[Agent Zub]

I mean, most of the best players work really hard...

some are clear standouts though.

 

[Whaleafs]

Crosby, MacKinnon & Marchand train together in the summers and the local lore is that Marchand is the fittest of the 3.

Panarin. Puck hound all over.

Panarin. Puck hound all over.

Yeah, I didn’t really notice this about him until watching him every game. He is just everywhere all the time.

Having said that, Crosby is a clear number 1 in this category.

It's like watching a dog chase a mouse around. He just NEEDS to catch it.

Sidney Crosby

[TheDawnOfANewTage]

Puck Soup is great- bit more focused than Chiclets, Greg Wisniewski on that one.

 

[Il Stugotz]

Keith for the Blackhawks even when they were stacked

Sometimes players force plays by trying to do too much and it actually hurts their production.

Theres definitely a fine line and it's the coaches job to taper their players to sustainable energy expenditure as well as schematic play. Otherwise all ten skaters are running around trying to do everything themselves which ends in defenders being left hanging.

I'd imagine measurements would show strong metrics and play driving (xGF% and CF%) with less actual production

 

[wetcoast]

Crosby and Barkov are both good answers.

Martin St. Louis as well.

Don't know if the OP means working on the ice or off the ice or both combined.

Pretty much this and will add Ryan O'Reilly although both Crosby and barov are better players.

I think a lot of elite players work extremely hard at everything they do.

 

[Plub]

Answer has to be Crosby.

I feel like the Larkin thing will be shown by his participation in the World Championships as often as he can. He's been in the WC every year since he was at U17s(6 straight years). We'll see how that continues into the years his team makes the playoffs and gets knocked out, I reckon he's going to go a lot though.
