[McDavidCrushedLarkin]

This is Draisaitl without any doubt. Proven product over fairy tales.

 

[ConnorMcMullet]

The only U23 center to have 50 goals in a season, and the only after McDavid to get 100 points.

Who is this center you speak of? McDavid's winger?

 

[Snippit]

How the hell is Drai a centre?

Matthews

Matthews

Maybe by winning 1300 faceoffs, 400 more than AM and most centers on the list.

 

[Snippit]

What percentage of his even strength ice time did he actually play the centre position?

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

Maybe by winning 1300 faceoffs, 400 more than AM and most centers on the list.

That has more to do with McDavid being a poor faceoff guy than Draisaitl actually being a center. Landeskog had more faceoffs than Thornton, but he's not a center either

 

[Mighty Makar]

Let Draisaitl center his own line and watch his production drop quickly.

Matthews

 

[KingTux]

Matthews

[illpucks]

So 30% of posters think that not only is McDavid better than Matthews, but Draisaitl too? Wow. After the worlds there was a big Matthews>McDavid group. Now Drai > Matthews? Wow

Some wingers take faceoffs all the time. Doesn't make them the center for the line.
