Best sniper + playmaker combination in one player

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 date

Draisaitl and it's not even close

This is who I thought of. Not the best player, but potentially the most balanced.

As much as it pains me to type his name, Nikita Kucherov.

Ilya Kovalchuk.

Elite sniper but not a good playmaker,

WHY WE BUMPING TEN YEAR OLD THREADS



Wrong. Lemieux 1995-96

Technically yes and technically no, he was tied for the lead in assists.

[Al Lagoon]

I'd say Kaprizov. We all know he can snipe, but he's become an unreal playmaker, no-look seeing eye passes galore this season until he got hurt.

Snipers can/will do slappers, so Pasta, Malkin, Kuch, Drai are good examples of snipers who are also playmakers. Not Crosby or McDavid...
