So Demko is #12 goalie in the NHL at best then?

 

[geebster]

I think he has Matthews on the forward list. Its just the playoffs so hes invisible

 

[Petey O]

Yeah, omitting Demko from a top 10 list isn't a good look.

 

[Love]

So Demko is #12 goalie in the NHL at best then?

The guy has Binnington at 2, just disregard the whole list.

They also said Matthews is a better forward than MacKinnon. Not really insight you can trust.

Wondering why you have McDavid 1st this season when Kucherov and Mackinnon are having better seasons

 

[NyQuil]

That’s like saying Michael Jordan wasn’t the best player in the world when Karl Malone won the MVP.

 

[Maliks PlusMinus]

Michal Jordan wouldn’t have been in my top 10 D in his prime. Probably was playing midget hockey back then!!

 

[bobholly39]

I'll do forwards....a bit unsure about defense beyond the top 5 or so, and no idea for goalies to be honest.

1. McDavid. He's still the best - let's not overcomplicate things.
2. Kucherov. Imo slightly better season than MacK so far, but close. That's why he's #2.
3. MacKinnon. Close to #2, I won't object too much if you want to swap him with Kucherov.
4. Matthews. On pace for one of the greatest goal-scoring seasons ever. Too bad the top 3 are overshadowing him so much this year.
5. Draisaitl. Between Kuch/Mack/Matthews/Drai they've all been top 5 (6 if you include Makar) players in the league for a good ~4 years now. Some years they interchange spots, but no one has surpassed any of them in those 4-5 years, which is extremely impressive. Draisaitl at #5 so far this season, but I could see him go as high as #1 come playoffs, so don't count him out just yet as being behind 2-4 for good.
6. Pastrnak. 2 years in a row is doing fantastic, I think he's earned #6
7. Hughes. His season came off the rails with injuries, but I'm curious to see him bounce back next year. He could be the one to break up the top 5.
8. Panarin. Consistent year over year, strong bounce back this season
9. Kaprizov. Consistent also year over year, even on a weaker Minessota squad where he's heavily relied on
10. Marner. One of the most consistent point getters in the league year over year. Yes I still have him above Nylander.

I feel extremely good about my top 7. After that it's a bit harder, with lots of players close. I'd probably have EP next and Tkachuk belongs also, but his early season struggles kept him off.

Also - both McDavid and Crosby won hart/ross in their second season. I can't wait to see how Bedard does next year. Can he take that same jump and win ross/hart? And even if he doens't reach quite that high - the league is super deep right now, especially the top 5, can he somehow simply reach that top 5 group by next year? Seems like such a hig bar - will be fun to see.
