McDavid, Draisaitl, Mackinnon, Matthews, Eichel and Barkov.
Lots of good centers after that that I think are elite, but you keep spouting off that guys like Cozen can't be elite because he isn't McDavid.
Only 5 teams have those players, are you suggesting that only they can win the cup? Tampa, Carolina, Winnipeg, Dallas, Washington? None of these teams have a chance?
Cozens 100% has potential to be in a Scheifele, Aho, Point, Hintz, Strome range of center. You need to check your definition of elite.
Flames would have been in a great spot long term if they added Cozens. He does have potential to be in that elite class behind the best of the best.

How many cups in Carolina, Winnipeg and Dallas?
Cozen isn't elite and doesn't have the potential to be elite, he stinks defensively and has never been a player driver.
Thanks for defining for me my definition of elite lol. Can Cozen even play against those players you listed? Nope he would get dog walked.
