Who will end up as a better player: Bedard, Celebrini, Michkov, Demidov or Hutson?

Well I'm showing you he had a very impressive rookie season and that the optimism isn't just about his draft hype. Lots of great players throughout the history of the game have had a sophomore slump.

The pessimism about him being a generational talent based on his first two seasons is valid, but there were a lot of people who didn't think he was ever going to be that to begin with. I'd be very surprised if he doesn't end up being a perennial top 10 point producer and top 5 goal scorer when he's in his prime.

Based on the body of evidence in the NHL, Celebrini looks more likely to be a 100 point player than Bedard. Other players throughout history don’t really provide a base for predicting more success for Bedard over Celebrini.

Celebrini gets an edge for me over being a center that will probably be an 85-95 point player in his prime while also being solid in his zone.

Hutson gets dibs for two, a dman that gets 60+ in his rookie year and so close to so many records isn't luck nor is it anything other than spectacular. He'll be a top 5 offensive dman for years to come and will get better and better.

As of now I'm inclined to put Bedard next and go with the whole of he's in a better team he'd already be ppg but his development might start to be a concern

Demidov is next to me and that's mainly from upside, we haven't seen what he's capable of but most metrics from a KHL POV have him closer to a Kaprizov/Kucherov than anyone in a while coming from Russia. I give him the advantage over Mitchov due to size and more compete

Mitchov is last to me, he's a pure sniper at the wing, probably hits 40 a couple times but his size, lack of compete and the abundance of such wingers makes him last in this list to me.

That’s certainly a description of Michkov.

Michkov is almost 2.0 PPG his last 6 games. I think he will be a perennial 100+ pts player like Kuch once he hits his prime.

If you want to think that that's fine, but I was explaining that it's not true that Bedards expectations are based purely on his draft hype.

Hutson doesn’t belong in this thread

He definitely does after this season.

I've noticed a lot of people posting in this thread don't even seem to watch some of these players. Comparing Demidov to Brière style-wise? What?

Here is my list:

Demidov
Celebrini
Hutson
Bedard
Michkov

They'll all be stars of course, but I can see Demidov reaching one step higher. You can save this post for future use. ;)

may as well toss Luke Hughes and Sanderson in there. Both players I would take on my team ahead of Hutson, and both only 6-8 months older.

This thread is about who will be the better player. Not offensive threat. So why toss in a 21 year old defenceman drafted in 2nd round who is having an amazing season with 5 consensus top 3 draft picks.

He’s in the bin of « who is going to be better: Fantilli, Leo C, Ryan Leonard, Hutson? »

Way too early to know. I’d put Celebrinj at the top for now. Largely because he looks so good on a team that is very, very bad.

But they should all have good careers.

We are nearing the end of the Crosby-Ovechkin era, and we will need some new torch bearers to attract new fans to the game we love. I can't predict who will be the best of the players listed, but for the good of the game, it will be awesome if all of them have a large impact on the game.

Who cares? Hobey Baker voterds are idiots. Hutson should have won pretty easily. Lok at the final 3 this year. Leonard (a choker). Howard and Buium. This is not a contest. Buium is easily a better player. he probably won't win though.
