Quoting: noted
I don’t want to diss Jack Hughes - I like him. Others are just better than him as of today. Yes Hughes will still get better though and they have all reached their prime more than likely.
From what I consider a healthy Jack Hughes: all of 2022-23, post Christmas when he recovered from that injury 21-22, and this year pre shoulder injury, it is a 46 goal, 111 point pace.
167 points,69 goals, 123 games
Whole being one of the best penalty differential guys in hockey and above average defensively
You can certainly call me bias, which I 100% am, but I don’t see any of the other guys in that tier 3 having that kind of offensive talent when healthy.
Tier 1: McDavid Mackinnon Matthews
Tier 2: healthy Hughes Drai
Tier 3: hughes overall, barkov, Pettersson, Crosby, point
