Lol not having Nylander/Kadri, and making Marner #54 is hilarious.

Hampus Lindholm #90 lmaoooo.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Hmm not sure how they can include Ehlers but not Nylander given their similar production ....

 

[ACC1224]

I would have Rielly higher than Andersen as well, Marner could be higher.
Not sure what their criteria was when ranking.

Imma gonna back out of this thread. There's gonna be a lot of homer outrage.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

Nylander and Kadri missing the list seems wrong to me. So does Tavares being ahead of Matthews. Rielly was also low. Marner and Andersen were a bit high. And then there was quite a bit wrong with other teams too

 

[Ziggdiezan]

Seems a lot of the big lists from NHL.com or sportsnet are terrible lol.

I bet Nathan MacKinnon will be extremely high even though he only has 1 elite season with years of middle of the pack 1st line production.

How many Dmen got over 50 pts last season? How can Jake not be in the top 100? As for Willie and Kadri, they might not be top 100 but if Marner is rank at 54, those two should be on the list.

The list is for 2018/19, to me that means they are projecting for the upcoming season.
IMO, Kadri should be there.

 

[TheProspector]

This list is... bad. Duncan Keith might not even a top 100 *D* in 2018.

Willie and Kadri are 100% top 100 players in the NHL.

 

[Gabriel426]

Willie and Kadri are 100% top 100 players in the NHL.

Like I said, if Marner is 53, then Willie and Kadri should be top 100.

IMO, Kadri should be there.

If that’s the case then Jake must be top 100, since it is his contract year.

 

[Gabriel426]

Personally, I really don’t like mixing goalies with players when it comes to ranking bc generally speaking a No.1 goalie is worth a lot more than a top 6 player.

 

[ACC1224]

If that’s the case then Jake must be top 100, since it is his contract year.

Sorry, not seeing the connection

 

[Gabriel426]

Sorry, not seeing the connection

Players tend to have career year during their contract year. This, safe to assume Jake will have more points than 52.

 

[Critical13]

Not bad IMO

 

[Glenn Isildur Healy]

Awful list. The Leafs should have at least 7 players in the top 100.

Matthews
Tavares
Marner
Rielly
Nylander
Kadri
Andersen

 

[Marshy]

The median number would be around 3.3

Teams having 4 in the top 100 are probably top half of the league. Teams with 5--> probably top 8 or so. Teams with 6 or more on the list would qualify as the top Cup contenders. 5 or 6 seems fair for the Leafs.

 

[MagicalRazor]

Marners top 30 all day

 

[Budsfan]

I like the leaf picks they seem to be pretty well thought out and accurate

 

[nsleaf]

Anyone's list will spark debate, especially about Leafs players, this one is as legit as anyone else could produce.

In all reality we could have 7 players there but it's not like excluding 2-3 of them due to difference in opinion isn't anything surprising.

The sole purpose in creating lists is to spark debate. The only list that is important is the list of names that get engraved on the Cup.
