And a borderline top 10 player in the world. It’s funny because you watch him play and he has absolutely zero explosiveness. But he is the single smartest player in hockey and is crazy versatile. Best two-way winger of his generation.

No to all 3 claims. He’s a great player though, and he is extremely useful and versatile.

He’s the perfect complimentary player in the perfect situation for him to thrive, hence the results we’ve seen the last couple years.

OOOOffff that last sentence aint it

his expected even strength defensive rating last year was was top 10 amongst forwards and i applaud him for that. but he wasnt once before that in his career. That doesnt mean he is the best of his generation

Just like Huberdeau was supposed to be better than Barkov. Or Forsling more important player than Barkov.

No. Barkov is the best player in that team and it shouldn't even be a matter of discussion. That said, Florida is so stacked it's not even funny.

it is funny, because they were so bad so long

never watched him much before the last 2 playoffs. What’d he change in his game from the Buffalo days and his first 2 years in Florida (where he still put up a lot of points) to scoring 57 last year and now being named the best player on the panthers by an expert?

Huby, Verhaeghe, Renihart, Forsling... We can go on. When they play with Barkov, suddenly they are superstars? Who make them - Barkov?

Just for fun I looked at some recent Buffalo Sabres rosters because so many of their players end up on contenders. Here is their 2020 roster

Taylor Hall-Jack Eichel- Sam Reinhart
Jeff Skinner- Eric Staal- Dylan Cozens
Cody Eakin-Tage Thompson-Viktor Olofsson
Zemgus Girgensons-Curtis Lazar- Kyle Okposo

Rasmus Dhalin- Brandon Montour
Jake McCabe-Henri Jokiharju
Rasmus Ristolainen-Colin Miller

I understand some of these guys were young in Dhalin and Cozens, but how did this team not make the playoffs ?!!!
