Probably Sid but I went with Lidstrom bc I’m feeling nostalgic and the 2015 cutoff takes away more of Sid’s best years than Lidstrom’s

 

[Albatros]

Koltsov.

 

[Nathaniel Skywalker]

Crosby

Joe Thornton led the NHL by 121 pts from 2000-01 to 2014-15 and he is not an option...

Crosby, Forsberg, Jagr, Ovechkin, Pronger and Sakic are all good choices, but this time period lines up nicely with Lidstrom's prime.

A few of those players were probably better than Lidstrom on a per-game basis, but this timeframe captures all seven of his Norris trophies, his Conn Smythe, and 950+ games as a top two-way player.
