Inspired by a discussion I had on the topic in my team's board got me wondering what is the general opinion about the ranking of the top 15 centers in the league currently.

I find it is a tougher exercise to rank them than to go simply by tier. So here is my attempt:

1. McDavid
2. Mackinnon
3. Draisaitl
4. Barkov
5. Matthews
6. Hughes
7. Eichel
8. Crosby
9. Point
10. Aho


11-15 gets harder IMO, with options like Kopitar, Reinhart, Necas, Scheifele, Suzuki, Larkin, Stutzle, Celibrini and Bedard all ranking similarily.

But if I had to chose I think the remaining 4 would go to Kopitar, Suzuki, Celibrini and Stutzle.

What is yours.

By currently do you mean, which centers would you want for the rest of the season or something else?

Off the top of my head I think guys like Hischer and even EP40 might be in the mix, TT, Wyatt Johnston and Miller as well?

Yes for the rest of the season. Contract and age aside. Just ranking the 15 best current centers in the league.

Well I'll take your top 10

Then Kopitar, Reinhart, Scheifele and then it gets tricky.

Maybe Suzuki and a head on straight JT Miller.

Ask me in 10 minutes and I might have 2 different guys though as a lot of guys are very interchangeable.

I've already changed my mind and would take Wyatt Johnston instead of JT Miller.

Except Reinhart almost never has played center in the NHL.
