Does Kucherov ranking above Vasi, Stamkos, MacKinnon, The Sedins, and Doughty make sense to any of you? No doubt he is great but...

This is on TheAthletics top 100 players of all time. After 67.

I have returned to CapFriendly after weirdly receiving hockey news via Hank Green.

**** Matthew Tkachuk. A disgusting human.
The cat eyes are enough of an issue with fluke accidents, and this ****head tries to purposely injure people.

This was on TheAthletics top 100 players of all time, probably should have clarified that whoops. Sorry.

I think it makes sense he’s ahead of most of those guys. Stamkos is maybe one I’d have higher, but Kucherov has a 128pt regular season (Hart, Art Ross, Ted Lindsay) followed by back to back 30+ point playoffs as he led his team in scoring en route to 2 cups. Stammer has a couple of rockets and the two cups, but didn’t do as much on the way to them I guess. He’s just got longevity on his side (almost 500 goals and 1000 points)

I'd have Vasi as highest in the list you posted.
If we're playing shinny & Vasi's stick is in the pile for picking teams, and I pick first - I take the 'big bat' and throw it in my corner!
No doubter...

Another assist for Barzal. He might never score again.

Kind of guy to pass the puck on a breakaway on an empty net

I'd take Vasi already top 55 in wins all time... Could end his career top 5 all time at his position...but they are all close.

Eh top 55 isn’t that impressive, unless they’re doing projections (which would be silly, look at Backstrom, he coulda had a fringe hall case until he got injured). I reckon Vasi needs a few more seasons to build up those career numbers.

Yes but Kucherov isn't even top 200(220) yet.

Ross Johnston bullies Pinto by the benches for no reason, takes a roughing penalty that led to a goal. Guy has gotten two 4 year deals from Lou for this sh*t

I wonder if Tampa will explore trading one of their RD depth Dman

As with Perebix's emergence got to think they explore moving one of Foote or Bogosian. With Foote's age got to think its Bogosian

A Bogo/Toronto reunion wouldnt be the worst thing
