No, its crazy talk when you throw out your list and suggest Backlund and Mangipane are right at home on that list. I mean, seriously, outside of two outliers, these are some of the best players in the game today.
Brayden Point
Artemi Panarin
Brian Rust (halo effect from playing with Sid and Malkin)
Elias Pettersson
Brendan Gallagher (outlier)
Evgeni Malkin
Nathan MacKinnon
Steven Stamkos
Jonathan Huberdeau
Patrice Bergeron
Yeah, I remember when the advanced stats said Ty Conklin was better than Martin Brodeur too.
