After McDavid, Who's the Best Peak Player of the Current Generation?

[McFlash97]

What position is that? Drai is either a C/W hybrid on the first line with McDavid or the #2 C vs. #1 winger. I don't see that as being that big of a difference.

Looks desperate trying to come up with any logical argument to discredit Draisaitl's season and career. Its borders on foolishness at this point.

here's some homework for you, since you like to dive deep into corsi stats.

can you name 5 players in the last 3 decades with similar corsi, 5 on 5 stats whiles winning the Rocket Richard, and Art Ross the same year. Also taking as much faceoffs as LD.

go head,

Art Rosses;

Draisaitl 1

MacKinnon 0

Cups

Mac 1

Leon 0

Both are generational talents but I'd have to favour Mac for individual play.

Follow the progression of what led to that post and get back to me.

Neither are generational talents.

Quinn Hughes.

This is a great answer as I use peak as best 3 year consecutive run, wish the OP had specified what he meant as peak because as usual we have some people talking 1 year and other 5 or 5.

Tough question

If we're talking "peak", I'll have to go with Kucherov. I think that Mack has a shot at having a better "Prime" tho
