Just FYI: Having Berard anywhere on this list is a total joke. Thomas is twice the player he is right now.

Having ranked Bedard in the 89 range is a total joke Larkins numbers are superior to both Bedard and Hischier and not even ranked.

Hischier is better than Larkin on both sides of the ice.

Is it even fair to call Barzal a Center when he plays wing more?

Nope. It's true. Presumably won't stay that way, but Thomas is a little better offensively and worlds better away from the puck. I mean, can you name one area where Bedard is better right now? Maybe his shot, but Thomas is even outdoing him in that category.

The Bedard part I agree with. But I wouldn’t say that Thomas is a top 20 center. He’s just right outside.

Edit: not sure why but I was mistaking kyrou for Thomas for some reason. You’re original statement was valid haha

Yeah, Kyrou isn't a C. But it's always good to see someone freely admit an oopsie. Not much of that in life these days. Kudos.
