Another reason why some might find Crosby rookie anticipation on a higher level,than mcdavid’s is the time between generation talents. The last generational talent before Crosby was Lindros, drafted in 1991. A 14 yr gap to 2005 Crosby draft year. Mcdavid drafted in 2015 was 10 years after Crosby and likely lacked that extra buildup of anticipation Crosby had cause it was a longer wait.

Yeah and even less than that to Bedard now, right?

18/19 year olds are juniors as our sport defines it.
Bedard has yet to play a single game against physically mature men.
Sure, but it's not like the top tier former CHL players don't have a significant edge in rookie achievement coming into the NHL.
