NHL.COM or ESPN or some other major publication hires you and gives you full decision making power in regards to making a top 50 player list going into next season.
The focus should be more around "who deserves to be ranked the best based on recent accomplishments" - and less a prediction for next year per se, that might involve guess work or decline based on age, etc.
McDavid is #1. I think this one is obvious based on past few years - but if you can't agree with this and want to be controversial, I left a voting option open just for you.
Who's your #2? Here are options:
1. Kucherov. Fantastic season, won the Ross, might win Hart/Lindsay too.
2. MacKinnon. Also fantastic season, 140 points, might win Hart/Lindsay himself
3. Matthews. 69 goals, terrific season, probably best defensively among forwards listed
4. Makar. Phenomenal over past few years/playoffs. His record speaks for itself
5. Draisaitl. A bit of a slower regular season then the rest, but absolutely dominating the playoffs yet again, 3 straight years...
6. Someone else (who?)
I honestly am not sure how I'd vote. I've been saying for a few years now there is a very clear top 6 in the league - and all 6 have been absolutely tremendous this year. Draisaitl had the weakest season of the bunch maybe - but he's obviously stepped up huge in these playoffs...
So - who is your #2? Feel free to rank the top 6 if you want.
