I debated them but I think that I want to see one more great season from both and then I will be fully convinced that they are there. It's too bad that Kuemper got injured because he was on a Vezina run.

Barkov and Bergeron and Kopitar need to be in or very near the top 10. Couturier is not.

Him and Point are on the same tier imo. I’d say at this moment in time Zibby is better then Petey and he’s def better then Couturier...

I disagree with that. Couturier was one of the best centers this year. Don't get me wrong, Mika was one of the better centers in the league this year, but he just misses the cut. Literally I have him at 11.

He's so close. I just love the way that Eichel plays. If Matthews improves his d game a little bit more, he probably overtakes Eichel.

Actually, swap Teravainen and Svechnikov (wings). Interested to see why you think Ovechkin is a better LW than Marchand, why Carey Price is a top3 G and with McAvoy, Hamilton, Spurgeon being here but no Ryan Ellis?

I like your list. If I was gonna nitpick, I'd say Gallagher, Price, and Binnington are a little too high... maybe Wheeler or Tarasenko or Voracek slip into the RW list. Binner was pretty average this year and since that's a majority of his track record, I'd probably have him behind some more proven guys like Kuemper, Lehner, Bob, Andersen, etc. Guess a lot of it depends on your conditions for the rankings too. Hard to really rank guys given the context, recency bias, risers/fallers, etc.

I think Couturier was one of the best centers this year. Bergeron was my 11 or 12 with Mika. I'm not sure if he can maintain his play for many more years. Barkov was also very close, maybe 13 or 14. Kopitar was probably around 16

Ovechkin's scoring is just too special to not have him at two. Marchand is part of the elite tier in my eyes, he's a 2B to Ovi for me. Price the best goalie of the playoffs and I think with Allen in net giving him some rest. He will stay in the top 3. I don't watch a crazy amount of Ryan Ellis but he missed the cut by one. He was my 11

I’m not gonna argue with you because it is your opinion and Couturier is a better defensive C for sure, but Mika scored 41 goals in 57 games. He had a good shot at the Art Ross if he doesn’t get injured..

Personally, I think that Eichel has more all around game then Matthews, but that is my opinion. You have the right to your opinion, but to me Eichel plays on a much worse team and if he played on the Leafs, he would be so much better than Matthews on Buffalo.

matthews finished 16th in selke voting, eichel didnt have a vote, matthews is better on d, and if you look at it that way then you have to adjust all your rankings, not matthews fault buffalo sucks, renihart should be better, eichel had kane, ror, skinner ( not matthews fault he was awdul, matthews seems to be the one that gets affected by eichel teammates more since thats all that gets brought up in comparisons, "If" eichel had this, "if" eichel had that, morale of the story he doesnt and at the moment matthews is better, they are very close tho.

You make a good point, but I am talking just Eichel vs Matthews because to me that will be the next Ovi-Crosby. I'm not sure what part of Eichel's game impresses me the most. I think it has to do with his puck control but I'm not sure. Matthews has the most impressive shot I've seen since Ovi but I don't know if he is able to bring the puck across the blue line, and get around 3 or 4 players to score on a consistent basis. This may seem a little biased because I'm a Habs fan but I still think Eichel is better. They are so close though.

Also, the voting is so bad. Matthews literally got 2nd most votes for the Lady Byng. I know it's not really counted, but he literally mooned a police officer. Come on, that cannot be a good look on the league and I can't believe he got nominated, no matter how he did on the ice.
