I’m still not used to Crosby being 36, Malkin 37, and Ovechkin 38. McDavid being 27 is nuts to me too. Time flies!
I never think age, I always think year of birth and I've been aware of those guys year of birth since they were drafted. I need to get used to people calling them old, often right in front of me and I'm 3 months older than Ovi.
What I think really gets us is it's mcdavids 9th season in the show and draisaitls 10th
Yeah well, they mean "old" as in hockey player "old". Not old as a person. Middle age is still as said, the middle age. Not the golden age of 60+@@alexbenhard
Pretty sure Ovechkin is actually like 42. Pretty common for Russian kids at the time to lie about their age so as to increase their draft stock.
Anyone who doesn't think Makar is a generational talent clearly has never watched Makar.
Depends on how many defensemen you consider generational I suppose. If he’s generational in your eyes then the total would be 5 or so in the present day
@@Surl9596 I'm taking into account that he's still early in his career and trying to project what he's going to accomplish in the rest of it. This is a bit of a hot take, but I think he's the best all around D since Lidstrom. Better than the likes of Hedman, Keith, Letang, Chara, Doughty, Weber, Karlsson, etc. His absurd skating ability and offensive creativity while also being an elite defender is what does it for me.
@@nolananderson4782 Hall of fame lock no question I just believe players like McAvoy, Heiskanen, Josi, Hughes, Hedman, Fox stand up to him more than many think
@@Surl9596 personally I think he's a tier or two above all those guys. None of them can control the game like Makar does
Not defensively hes not
17 years old, my pick is Jaromir Jagr
i think gordie howe may be better
I completely agree with you that Cale Makar is a generational talent. Even though he wasn't drafted first overall there is no question about it.
28 is stacked, when you said Mack, but honorable mention to Draisaitl, but there's also Barkov at 28.
And shesterkin
@@Perk08 And Eckblad, Sam Reinhart, Demko, Pastrnak.
Igor’s better than draisaitl in my opinion and should be the honorable mention
@@BobMcarthy lol.
@@MultiCappie no “lol” it’s true
mcDavid is struggling against the Panthers? Lol. this video was a couple days too early😂😂
Finding out Panarin is already 32 made me feel old.
He was already a seasoned veteran from the KHL when he debuted as a "rookie".
A common misconception too about the games Leo missed early on wasn’t about “load management” but rather it allowed for him to get some extra time in the weight room whenever he was be on the ice and bulking up to become a horse in the second half as Verbeek said. Not like he was only sitting around during his off days. I think it was smart considering how much hockey he played in his draft year, he’s still not even close to growing into his body which is scary considering how solid is frame already is.
Heard someone say he hasn’t stopped growing yet. His growth plates haven’t even fused yet
@@JD200_ yeah he might top out at 6’5 or 6’6 lol
Jeff Petry snubbed at 36
Fuck how did I miss that
@OhNyquist get your head in the game bro 🤦♂️ 100pt season incoming
If Jeff Petry plays a full season as an acceptable def I will eat my shorts lol.
I wonder if Petry had more assists for the opposition then he did for detroit
ok i know that MacKinnon and Draisaitl are also 28, but honorable mention to Igor Shesterkin, he is on another level as a goaltender and the rangers would not have gotten as far as the did in the playoffs without him
Barkov is 28 as well. I mean it IS a prime age, 26-29 are gonna be the most stacked ages probably.
Someone said you were glazing by saying Makar was the best defenseman in the league? 💀💀
It was the fact I said generational is what they said lol
They’re either trolling or don’t know puck.
@@OhNyquistthey don’t know puck
It’s hard not to call makar a generational player. If u glazed thru stats only u would think makar was a forward with those stat totals. And an elite forward at that. Unless he is hurt for a long time makar is 100% a hall of famer.
No disrespect to Ovis career but I'll take a 200 foot center who scored more points this year and logs bigger minutes. At 37 you picked a guy who was better now, Kopitar is the best 38 year old in the league.
There is just no way to not give that one to ovechkin. But kopitar is def right there too
Ovi is definetely best 38 years old 2nd most goals by that age and doing 30+ goals at that age is very impressive and even crazier is he had very bad start 8 goals in first 43 games and 23 goals in last 36 games pace for 50. It's pretry clear he was hurt and at that age you expect good start and slower second half... Well he did run out of gas in playoffs playing 80 games at his age was bit too much especially when he had to carry caps there.
Dope video. All these clips must’ve taken a while to put together
Damn, Sam Bennett snubbed for the 18YO slot. Not even an honorable mention
I think for 26 you could’ve done an honourable mention for Mathew Tkachuk. Especially if you count playoff success. Back to back finals plus he’s most likely getting a cup this year.
I am surprised that you didn't mention Brady Tkachuk-81 Games with 37 Goals 37 Assist with 74 points this season, next season he might get over one hundred points if he keeps playing like this, he also an adagender as well, drafted in 2018
Can’t believe panarin is 32, I know he joined the nhl at an older age but damn. Time is flying by too fast
I feel that
Only 6 years younger than Ovi... or only 4 than sid...
I respect you do your best to not be a homer. Lucas raymond had the most points of anyone 22 or younger ( and still has another level to hit imo ) just saying.
It took everything in my soul not to pick him haha. Raymond probably had the better year, but I think Stutzle is still the better player with higher upside.
You should have picked Raymond for bias lol. But said it was bias
Lucas Raymond being snubbed at 22 is crazy 😂
You don't happen to have the file for the leo part of the thumbnail? I'd kill for that as a phone wallpaper
Yeah, agreed actually. Amazing, even agree on the one single "honourable mention" -- Leon Draisaitl. That's a large number of discreet opinions to agree.
I can't blame Timmy, He had a broken wrist all season and a shoulder injury
Lets get some top 10 at each position, love the content
Bobrosky isn’t an incredible goaltender, sure he’s good. But the panthers d has allowed nothing. That stretch against Edmonton where they pushed a game 7, the panthers d wasn’t good. And he was bad too, so just saying.
Pavelski had better season than Burns but he was weak in the play offs
Kris Leturnover
One thing I always wondered is when someone talks about a player 'in their prime', do they mean their age or their playing ability?
I wonder when Gretzky hit his prime in age AND ability. Were they the same time or different times?
Can't fairly call any active players on anything but AGE as their prime really.
Think that could be a decent idea for a video?
The Draisaitl disrespect is strange. McK is great, but he always had the better team and linemates around him. LD barely plays with McD on 5v5, kills PK and still carries. That makes him the way more valuable player...
Lucic snubbed at 36
I would say Igor Shesterkin for 28 but that's just me as a rangers fan
Real list:
18- Gavin Brindley
19- Adam Fantilli
20- David Jiricek
21-Cole Sillinger
22-Dmitri Voronkov
23-Cole Sillinger
24-Kirill Marchenko
25-Daniil Tarasov
26-Jake Bean
27-Zach Werenski
28-there aren’t any 28 year olds in the NHL
29-Damon Severson
30-Johnny Gaudreau
31-Boone Jenner
32-Eric Gudbranson
33+-there are no players older than Eric Gudbranson in the NHL
I vote for Jaromir Jagr.
It’s crazy that at age 53 he played his final year in pro hockey. Even tho it was overseas.
Could of atleast put Lucas Raymond as an honorable mention for 22
He also turned 22 two weeks before the season ended. 21 years old all season, barely 22.
Yeah Raymond and Jarvis. Jarvis played almost the entire season and into the playoffs hurt. Very good list.
He ain't struggling right now! Week too soon to say Davo is struggling.
Good vid
who is the best at age 1?
Hahahahahahahahha you are soooooo funny hahahahahahaha
@@jred1817 I'm telling you there is a future superstar right now at age 1
nice video
True
19 is absolutely Fantilli
Syd the not so kid crosby
No bruins in the video 😢😢😢
Wheres josi?
Leo = Barkov 2.0
This guy knows puck
Listen this will 100% in any leafs fan eyes make me seem like I’m an idiot but I think Mathew’s is overrated he may score but he hasn’t had any playoff success and he’s not a team player he takes extra money doesn’t take term he supposedly wants the c over tavares that’s not remotely ok and he just isn’t a crazy defensive player I know people think he is but he’s slightly above average people act like he’s the best in the league like what
Barkov 29?
Zegras
Hellebuyck is a playoff fraud though, so Jt miller should win it 🔥🔥
lets be real bedard is only winning cuz the league wants him to..since youre a hockey channel im sure you know a lot more than me. explain a rational reason faber loses please.
idk
1. leading weak ass team while the other one has a decent one
2. having more points in less games
3. being more visible and consistent
4. skill wise
5. his assist are much better than just shooting on the net and having someone to tap it in
I saw Bedard on IIHF Worlds and i was disgusted, not a sigle try to support team on the defending side, sometimes he was even out of the lineup just because of that lame performance. Terrible selfish man.
just say you've seen it on tiktok or reels. bro played in 3rd/4th line and with lost guys. only good guys in canada were Tavares and Cozens so... and even they did not really shine
not saying having 8 points in 10 games with averaging 10 mins played lol
Pasta snubbed for 28 year old pick
Over Nate? 🤔
@OhNyquist pastrnak is one of the NHLs best goal scorers and is just overall one of the best players in the entire league. Last season, Pastrnak became part of a club that includes only Gretzky and Bossy for only players to score their 60th goal of the season via hat trick and the 8th ever players to score their 300th career goal via hat trick as well
@@quinnchausse5051 Crazy bias, almost as biased as Jack Edwards💀 Pastrnak is NOT Mackinnon
@MitchyM115 mackinnon doesn't even scratch the top 5. The top five are McDavid, Draisaitl, Matthews, Pastrnak, and Makar
@@quinnchausse5051 This is certainly one of the takes of all time
dahlin is better than quinn. 90% of all the gms would take dahls in a heartbeat over quinn
Dickglean ain’t got the juice like that.
Me personally, I though Zach Benson is the best 19 year old player, I think he has a slightly better season than Carlsson.
He’s 18
Benson produced at a 0.42 points per game rate compared to 0.53 for Leo, who was also better defensively. Both great talents but Leo did more with less around him especially considering all the injuries Anaheim had to their top guys
No he is 19 now
Wrong. Carlsson was an impact player. Everyone knew he was the best player on the ice and became the ducks number one center day one. Although his points didn’t show the impact, he is that guy!
@@matthewkabel6246 Leo Carlsson was better, but you're wrong in saying he did more with less. Leo plays with Killorn and and Terry/Zegras. Benson's main linemates were Cozens and Peterka.
It’s crazy how good Bedard is. His PPG is better than the best players that are a few years older than him and to top of off he’s on the Hawks lol
Matthews is a 3 time rocket winner not 2
9th
