Best sniper + playmaker combination in one player

[soothsayer]

Connor is not a great playmaker

Right now, pretty easily Drai

He's one of, if not the best passer in the NHL while scoring 50 a year

The guy has an assist per game over his career. Lol

553 games - 256 assists = 0?

You took the time to bold a sentence, but it seems that effort took you to full capacity and you couldn't comprehend what that user quoted.

My bad.

Rantanen is pretty damn good in both areas.

Scores all kinds of goals. Pretty dangles, ripping lazers, dirty goals etc. Also a great passer.

Hilarious this thread is from 2015. There are a bunch of guys but the first two names the immediately jump to my mind are Kucherov for active players and Sakic from my childhood era.

 

[Quinntessential]

Pettersson before the injuries

 

[Kshahdoo]

I will add Kaprizov to the list I posted in starting post. And soon Michkov will be there too.

Bro what ?

No seriously... tell me you just made this claim with a straight face.

I mean breaking Wayne fn Gretzkys playoff assist record, getting over 100 assists in a season...

What ? 2

His quote was regarding Kyle Connor.

well I stand corrected. Anytime Draisaitl is mentioned next to Connor.... Oiler fans have an auto mode.

 

[I Hate Blake Coleman]

McDavid, Crosby, MacKinnon. Too bad Ronnie Franchise already has the Franchise moniker. It would apply here because anyone who's scoring 40+60 is probably top guy on their team.

 

[crowfish]

Draisaitl is the definition of this

 

[McFlash97]

Draisaitl is at the top. Mackinnon also is pretty good at both.

 

[Ignatius]

Lecavalier

 

[Dynamite Time]

Robertson - Hintz - Johnston haha. Hopefully a jinx and that line finally gets going.

I came here to post this as well, bizarre thread that it is.
Kaprizov has had some amazing set-ups this season, true no look stuff. He has become about as complete a forward as you could want.

 

[JotAlan]

Draisaitl and it's not even close

 

[wintersej]

Draisaitl and it's not even close

Pasta.

 

[Dirty Dan]

Kovalchuk

Playmaking? Most of his career is him setting up his goal owns and Iso plays. Elite in that sense but he never scored 100 points

 

[LemonSauceD]

first name that I thought of was Claude Giroux in his prime.

 

[KingsHockey24]

Ilya Kovalchuk.

 

[zar]

How is it not close? McDavid is the first player since Gretzky to lead the league in both goals and assists in the same season.

Some people don’t stay up past 9PM EST.

 

[Legion34]

Draisaitl and it's not even close

I went through about 4 pages of no mention of Drai thinking I lost my mind before I saw the dates.

 

[jfhabs]

Can't believe he wasn't mentioned in the first 3 posts. But that's P88

Wrong. Lemieux 1995-96
