Description
Agree or disagree with my list. I decided to make this list after watching the last Vegas game. Eichel is a good player but he's overrated. Let me know what you guys think.

Idk how Miller and Boeser are overrated when everyone on this site shots on them constantly

Same goes for Puljujarvi and Jones. Never hear anything good about them on this site

Miller and Boeser are constantly called cap dumps and hated on this site. I also don’t think many people rate Puljujarvi highly

And hate to say it, because he is a marvel to watch, but McDavid should be on this list.

For a player that 86 points in 47 games, his 5v5 GF% should be better than 51.95%. (That's 134th among Fs with at least 400 5v5 mins, ouch.)

If there's anything that's certain in hockey fandom it's that overrated and underrated lists will always be completely wrong.

It's a 1/6th stat. McDavid is one of the 6.

And quite frankly, what stat is an individual stat in a team game? Maybe FO%. I think that's it. I suppose you could also add shoot-out/penalty shot goals and saves.

Wow, okay. First of all, this "1/6th stat" things only works if all six players are completely equal - which they obviously never are in this case. Just for starters, the save percentage when he's on the ice this season is 88.8%. Then, he spends almost all of his 5v5 time carrying D-zone slugs like Nurse and Barrie. And then lots of time spent lugging guys like Pulju and Yama around.

Secondly, there are tons of stats that are individual. And lots more that aren't 100% individual but certainly far more individual than any on-ice measure, let alone one where one player is worlds better than everyone he plays with except Drai.

Long story short, suggesting McD is overrated is beyond silliness, let alone doing so because of one on-ice stat (where he's in positive territory, no less).

Gibson and Hart are both really good goalies, they have just been playing on bad teams. When their respective team was competitive, they were really good, and any goalie is going to take a hit to their numbers when playing on a bad team.

Hart is awful. Flat out awful. Has been for a while. The “bad team,” excuse is lame.
