In general actually the ratings of these 5 best players at each position are sort of low. What does it take to get over 95? the best players in the world should be around 95-100 because by default there literally is nobody else better than them in the world... these ratings seem similar to previous years and it's something that always bugged me very slightly.
People on team France rated like 50-60's when in real life should be more like 30-40... and the best players rated higher. There is a huge spread in skill between all these different groups of players. Then you could also include a much more noticeable and longer term growth profile for players in GM Mode as they progress towards their potential.

Kane's offensive stats are much higher than Hossa's, but Hossa is good at everything, so his overall rating is higher. It makes sense if you look at it that way.
And I also agree that I don't really like how they do the player ratings. I wish the ratings were more spread out, it sucks having every NHL player within 15 points overall. Crosby should be at least 97 overall, and your average 3rd liners should be in the low-mid 70s, AHL players should be in the 50s/60s, and so on.
