If you were making a team right now and could select either Crosby + Malkin in their prime or McDavid + Draisaitl in their prime, which duo would you choose?

since this “team” you’re making is obviously making the playoffs, I would go with Crosby and Malkin. These guys can complement any guys at all and are whizzes I the playoffs(two cups recently)

If we’re talking about who is better right now, I’d probably say Crosby/Malkin. But it’s close, and we haven’t seen McDavid’s prime yet, so I would definitely take McDavid & Draisaitl in their primes.

Right now and probably next year Crosby and Malkin. After that McDavid/Draisitl.

Both in their primes? No question it's Crosby and Malkin.

If there's any doubt, think 10-12 years down the road from today. How many Cups will McDavid and Draisaitl win? Sid and Geno have 3. If EDM wins more than once with the competitive balance in the league I'd be shocked. But I do think they'll win the Cup in EDM.
