Lmao at panarin being 3rd

120 pts this year, maybe unpopular, but not lmao

I have no horse in this race but, as an absolute true neutral, I think Suzuki should be higher, maybe around McDavid/Kucherov, and that Matthews should be more around Stone/Heiskanen tier. But that's just my honest objective opinion. I could be wrong. I'm just saying.

Panarin lol

I'm a habs fan, doesn't change nothing in how I see Suzuki's talent. Matthews is in the top 7, that's sure.

MCD MacK Matthews should be 1 2 3 without question. And thats only because Makar and MacK are on the same team. Depending on how you think about this, Makar is more valuable of a player than MacK is. There are less of him.....But assuming these are the players...those are the top 3.
Kuch Crosby Pasta would be 4 5 6.

"I have no horse in this race" - Habs fan commenting on Suzuki

MacKinnon is right there.

Crosby ACTUALLY is overrated. Panarin's better

As usual, Bedard is way too high. Thomas is twice the player he is right now.

Larkin being below Werenski and Suzuki is a comically bad take. The more I look at this list the worse it gets lmao

Twice ? Bedard is playing with Kurashev !!! Thomas is playing with buchnevich and Kyrou, in a correct club

Werenski should be higher, but he's always injured. Suzuki finished 13 for the selke and got better offensive stats in a bottom-5 club

"Better offensive stats" brother what? Suzuki finished below point per game and Larkin was above it.

And Werenski should be much much lower specifically because he's always hurt. Though even if he was healthy I think he's overrated

Regardless though, you have Suzuki far too high, you have Werenski above Heiskanen for some godforsaken reason. You have him above CROSBY??? You have Noah Dobson above Quinn Hughes. You have Panarin over MacKinnon and Matthews

Like this entire list is just awful ignoring your lack of respect for Larkin

Quinn Hughes and Heiskanen are criminally low. They should both be ahead of Dobson and Josi (Heiskanen is also easily ahead of Werenski)

No chance. Despite the fact that Crosby is objectively better.
He also plays a premium position.
Scoring wingers are a dime a dozen.
Breadman needs to learn to take faceoffs, PK, and play defense before you can compare him to the likes of Crosby etc.
Centers over wingers always.

Barkov should be above Panarin and J. Hughes. Hughes may get there someday but right now Barkov is better. Barkov is also a lot better than Panarin will ever be.

The Noah Dobson bias is crazy

No bias here. Dobson is just more complete than Hughes

According to Natural Stat trick, with Dobson on the ice the Islanders had a 2.66 xGA/60 (at 5-5), Quinn Hughes had a 2.43 xGA/60.




The only, only thing Dobson did was PK. That does not come close to the gap

These are stats on 2 years. Dobson was better this year, Hughes just scores points

These are 2023-2024 stats. fwiw Dobsons is from Mid-January though

Written : 2022-2024

Dobsons is 2023-2024. Quinns mixes in 2022 but that exclusively drags stats down. Basically everything got better. One of these 2 dmen are winning a Norris and it's not Dobson

Easilly give the norris to Makar, maybe Josi.
