[Mitch nylander]

Barkov and o'reilly over matthews and eichel

All though I agree with many of your choices.

 

[Conspiracy Theorist]

Barkov and o'reilly over matthews and eichel

All though I agree with many of your choices.

They are good players.

 

[HitoftheMillennium*]

I think there's a pretty good chance that Connor McDavid, from next season onward, will be what Crosby was early in his career. I'll be surprised if he doesn't win the Art Ross next season if he's healthy.


However, at this point, Crosby is a rather savvy player while still being a top player offensively and can't really be denied number one status when his team has gone to the SCF in two straight seasons.

 

[HitoftheMillennium*]

Ummm... Matt Murray is not the 15th best player in the NHL.

 

[NickyFotiu]

Leon and Burns are too low. Some goalies are is too high.

 

[tade]

It's not bad. Solid list.

Although I think Vlasic, Matthews & Eichel should be in top 50 and not HMs. + Matt Murray, Bobrovsky and OEL are too high, imo. Burns, Suter too low.

 

[randomhockeyfan]

Umm, did you forget Laine or do you think he doesn't belong in that group? I mean, at least put him in HMs.

 

[GermanRocket7]

2017 Getzlaf easily cracks the top-5.

 

[McBaevid]

Matt Murray should not be on the list let alone at number 15

 

[Hockeyisl1fe]

I wouldn't rank goalies with other players (it's hard to compare). Also: a player who scored 3 hat tricks in last season isn't even in the honorable mentions, yet MacKinnon is in your top 50? Him over Matthews is quite odd too.

 

[1OApick]

Barkov and o'reilly over matthews and eichel

All though I agree with many of your choices.

Well Barkov > Matthews

 

[Mcnotloilersfan]

not a bad list. Some area's where I disagree. Matthews out of the top 50 might bring some trouble.

 

[Son Goku]

Matt Murray should not be on the list let alone at number 15

Lol ok

 

[NarcoPolo]

Claude Giroux doesnt belong on this list anymore.

 

[ViewsFromThe6ix]

Well Barkov > Matthews

in terms of what?

Matthews is a top 5 player in the NHL right now, probably #3.

 

[FinRuutu]

in terms of what?

Matthews is a top 5 player in the NHL right now, probably #3.

 

[Hockeyholic]

Carey Price is wayyyy to high.

Matthews is a top 5 player in the NHL right now, probably #3.

LOL what? Who is Matthews ahead of in the top five of Crosby, Mcdavid, Karlsson, Malkin, Kane?

You forgot about Drai.

 

[RememberTheName]

Barkov and o'reilly over matthews and eichel

I take Barkov easily over those two, not as much Eichel as Matthews though

You need to keep scouting bud. A 40 goal scoring, dominant two way power centerman is a top 10 player in the world easy.

 

[Club]

Don't think MacKinnon is top 50 anymore

Eichel shouldn't be an HM. I personally think he's better than Nathan
