Still not there for me. Hopefully, but Generational is McDavid, Crosby, Lemoeux, Gretzky, etc.

He'll be generational if he influences the sport of hockey like the guys in your avatar.

He needs to have one more 3+ point game to be considered generational
The Gr8 Dane
L'harceleur
He hasn't played a NHL game and he's not a generational prospect in terms of D-1 production , why even write what you wrote
Vasilevskiy
The cat will be back
Anything can happen but he looks like that kind of player to put 100+ points

Bridging your comment to my question earlier, a guy who puts up 100 pts / season consistently is considered generational

Not really.
Is Kucherov generational?
He’s a superstar but he’s not McDavid or Crosby or Ovechkin.
Hockey isn't basketball, no one player, turns a bad team into a contender especially a rookie.
You could take any star player in the league right now and it doesn't make the Habs a contender.

Kucherov? 100% generational he’s at the same level now as McDavid
He was a late bloomer but saying hes not playing at a generational level would be insane.
Have you seen us play right now?
Id respectfuly disagree with you. The Habs are a lot closer to being a playoff team than many who don't follow them think. They have taken a fairly large step this year. A true star offensive player would really take the rebuild to the next level
All due respect but; does it matter? He’ll be what he’ll be, a label doesn’t change a thing.

Generational implies that there's one (or maybe two) guys at that level in a generation, and they dominate over the vast majority of their career.
You just have a much looser definition which is why people are disagreeing with you.

Why are we bringing up the generational topic? If Demidov was generational, he would have been drafted 1st overall. And spotted years before his draft.
Jeez. The kid is not even in North America yet.

Kaprizov averages 100pt per 82 games and he's a superstar but no generational player. I was thinking more like that kind of player
Ah man I thought the generational talk was over here...
So dumb lol

And some have a very selective as to who they want to include in the club.
Do you agree that Kucherov is not playing at the same level as McDavid?
...Kuch is not Generational, that's what I was saying...there are few truly Generational players...
Yeah, which is really the point which I agree with you. Generational are those who literally come once a generation.

Its funny you say this because the whole world was seing Bedard as the next McDavid and i said he wasn't but you don't count this as a plus do you?
I said Demidov would be Generational using Bedard as a point of view. Demidov is having crazy numbers and he's on pace to have that type of career by the way he's progressing. 15 pts in his last 10 games since he's been playing normal minutes.
Mesar was on a PPG pace before his injury, playing on the third line and limited PP time. Everything leads to believe Mesar is going to have a strong career in the NHL once he's given the opportunity.
Lets talk about your predictions now
I know and I muted that guy so I don't get banned permanently here

Kucherov isn't, but he's pretty near. 100 assists last season. 34 and 32 point playoffs. His 128 points was the most for a European winger in decades. But any generational talk surrounding Demidov, or almost any player, is pretty silly at this point. Its also a completely marginal opinion that only 1 poster has.
There's no "we", it's really just one guy no one agrees with.
