The guy who ate the hotdog is quietly breaking out. I don't think anybody saw it coming. Look for him to log big minutes along side McDavid next year.

[Mike Liut]

Don't take into account contracts or age. Rank them based on pure talent. Like a draft board for just this year. Don't take into account a rookie that you think could be a top 6/top 4 player in 2 years. Where does that player rank in 2018-2019?

You can rank more than 10. I just want to get a feel for which players are the best on each team outside of the obvious.

Blues:
1: Ryan O'Reilly
2: Alex Pietrangelo
3: Vladimir Tarasenko
4: Colton Parayko
5: Brayden Schenn
6: Jaden Schwartz
7: Jay Bouwmeester (when healthy)
8: Vince Dunn
9: David Perron
10: Jordan Binnington (I know! Small sample)

-I have long held that Petro was our best and most important player and it could still be true. However, ROR is insanely great! Tarasenko has become a bit too streaky and inconsistent defensively to be top 2.
-Schenn and Schwartz are about even. I gave Schenn the nod for his ability to play very well at center. You could definitely flip these two.
-Bouwmeester is still a top pairing D-man when his hip is healthy. It's so great to have the old Jay back. This dude just busts his tail every night.
-7 through 10 on this list was very difficult. The top 6 is pretty far separated from the rest. The top 3 is on another level from 4-6.
-How could I not put Binnington at 10?! He has gotten better every year in the AHL and is now great in the NHL.

Hate leaving Thomas off, but it won’t be long before he’s top 5 on this list

Hate leaving Thomas off, but it won’t be long before he’s top 5 on this list

Yeah I actually had him in strong consideration for the 10th spot.

He's just too raw at 5 on 5 right now. His skill definitely shines on the PP when he gets space to work with but he needs to get bigger and get more confidence before we really see him shine. No doubt he'll be a top 5 guy for us down the road.
