Who will be the next "Best Player in the World"?

[Matthew McConaughay]

Demidov could be it.

It’s kind of crazy how we’ve had a bit of a lull for guys who looked primed for best in the league status. Someone mentioned in a Boldy thread recently that he might be the best winger under 25, with Raymond and Marchenko his best current competition. Which, as good as they are, is a far cry from a Kucherov.

I'm a huge Marchenko fan and I have a ton of respect for Boldy and Raymond, and I still found this hard to believe.

I looked up the top U25 wingers by average game score, and sure enough it was Kirill Marchenko, and then Jarvis, then Raymond, then Boldy. And Marchenko was the only one in the top 30 players. Not a lot of young centers up there either, only Jack Hughes in the top 30. It's not a young man's league right now.

Tough call between Demigod and Lane Hutson.
But sure bet they'll both be joining Karlsson in the super NHL.
