I disregard any list of superstars that doesn't include a Goalie. It shows ignorance.

If Stone isnt a superstar, i dont know who is. Easily the best defensive winger in the game and arguably the bestbforward period. Offensively has done nothing but score clutch goals. I think you can make a case for Fluery and Petro too.

Darn, you are right, these new age stars are pretty good. 😉

So Stone, the best defensive forward in the playoffs(which is more important than offence) is not a superstar?
- neem55


Stone is 1 of the best players in the league period. Only a fool would argue that.
Does that make him a super star, I don't think so.

No, he’s not, but he’s a great player. Connor McDavid, Wayne Gretzky, Mario Lemieux, Alex Ovechkin are superstars.

Ottawa took him in the 6th round, damn they draft well in Ottawa.

According to the Superscout, Dorian is easy prey for picks. Lol

Should I re- do the size of the defensemen now that the smallish Colorado defense is out of the playoffs?

No, but if you look at the career as a whole he's up there with the best. Even Gretzky rode the pine later in his career. That doesn't diminish his body of work, nor should it. Same goes for Fleury.

I thought we were just talking about currently if they're a superstar, not as a career/in the past.

Oh, OK. I just thought current players. Didn't really set any parameters beyond that.

There is a certain height requirement that needs to be met. It tends to change with a players abilities though.

Odd how that works.

4 out of the top 10 scoring D this year were under 6'

7 out of the top 40.

3 out of top 10 F were under 6'

10 out of top 40

The league is slowly getting smaller. It's just pretty much the same as it's always been cream of the crop only.

Guys like Cam Robinson who put in almost half of his top 100 every year under 6'

NHL Central Scouting has 10 out of 40 NA players under 6'

7 out of top 20 in Euro skaters.

Is the 6-40-9 line necessary?
That trade is interesting.
Pass on Oleksiak.
Roussel 13th F or Utica imo
