Kyle Connor vs Mikko Rantanen

[Bjornar Moxnes]

Who do you consider the better player?

It may seem like Rantanen AINEC, but Rantanen has constantly played second fiddle for the Avs, while Connor has consistently been the Jets top scorer. Curious to see everyone's opinion.

Yeah this is an AINEC situation. No disrespect to Connor either but Rantanen has a solid chance of becoming a HHOFer by the time his career ends, if he has 1 or 2 more high end seasons in Carolina its basically set in stone. Will likely go down as a top 4 Finnish forward in NHL history too.

Last 3 years:

Rantanen 122 goals, 273 points, +47, 1.29 PPG (~106 points per 82 games)
Connor 91 goals, 201 points, -16, 1.02 ppg (~84 points per 82 games)

Playoffs last 3 years:

Rantanen 16 goals, 49 points, +6, 1.29 ppg (~106 points per 82 games)
Connor 9 points in 10 games. .90 ppg (~74 points over 82 games)

The only way Connor should have any votes is if people mistake the poll option for Connor McDavid.

Rantanen is definitely better as a jets fan but it’ll be interesting to see how much Rantanens points drop off without MacKinnon and Makar

Rantanen AINEC

Connor plays with someone that can't even make their national team.
