Which Player would you most want to have on your team?

[Sstroh84]

Which two of these young players would you most want to have on your team?

This would be a combination of current and future. I am allowing you to choose two so there is a better sense of the top end of the group rather than just the top 1.

These are the Centers drafted high in 2016 and 2017 who have already made an impact to their NHL team outside of the big two (Matthews & Barzal).

Pettersson is the best player right now and has the most potential as well, easily him.

 

[member 157595]

Pettersson is closer to Matthews and Eichel than he is to any other player on this list. He's the slam-dunk choice here.

 

[Rob Brown]

My top 3 among these options:

Pettersson
Dubois
Keller

 

[Peggy]

Ep easily

A scheifele/ep 1-2 punch would be one of the best in the league

 

[Sstroh84]

I agree Pettersson is in the top two of this list, but his sample size is still only half a season. He has been great so far, but that has to be a consideration and keeps him out of the Matthews and Barzal level.

 

[BlueBaron]

took Keller, Pettersson is a no brainer.

 

[LuckyBoeser]

I went with Petey & Hischier

 

[JoVel]

Quite a few posters don't know what "pick two" means.

 

[Morgs]

Pettersson and Keller. EZ PZ.

 

[Orange Fanta]

For buffalo ep and keller easily our top 6 would be insane with those two added however starting from scratch ep and nico for me

 

[maxbme]

Went Pettersson and PLD but I like Hischier a lot too

 

[tony d]

Keller and Elias for me.

 

[Bob Barker]

Pettersson and Hischier. Would go Dubois over Hischier on pure value but Nico has the extra ELC year and the Leafs are in an impending cap crisis.

 

[Jabs102501]

Pettersson because he's good

 

[SillyRabbit]

I’d take Pettersson over any two other players on this list, he shouldn’t even be in this poll.

Barzal isnt on the Matthews level lmfao

 

[Bounces R Way]

Barzal isnt on the Matthews level lmfao

Umm yes he is. Career high 85 points to Matthews 69.

 

[Boxscore]

Pettersson is a lock and it's not even close, honestly.

Second, I go Keller by a hair over Dubois, just because I see him emerging into a Gaudreau-ish player soon.

Hischier doesn't impress me much. Patrick is a dud.

 

[loadie]

I’d love to have Pettersson and Dubois on the Habs.

 

[sparxx87]

Pettersson and Dubois

 

[bert]

Pettersson is the best player right now and has the most potential as well, easily him.

I feel like after him its clearly Dubois then clearly Hischier followed by Keller then its a wild card choice.

 

[bert]

Barzal isnt on the Matthews level lmfao

Only in leafland. The rest of the world knows he is in that second tier of young elite centers after Mcdavid.

Matthews, Barzal, Eichel, Petterson, Aho. The way Dubois is developing into a two way power forward he is tracking to be on that level, just not quite there yet.

 

[Holymakinaw]

Keller & Mittelstadt.

 

[HanSolo]

EP no doubt
