"The first thing I would say about Shane: You're not going to get this spectacular flash and dash. I'm not saying that negatively. He's just not a Nathan MacKinnon or Connor McDavid type. That's not who he is," Button said.

"Whatever expectations are put on him, he exceeds them. He reminds me of Steve Yzerman," said Button of Bedard.

Wright isn't expected to be the next Yzerman. Nor the next McDavid, nor the next Crosby. He may not end up being a player whose signature is worthy of an arm tattoo.

"Generational players don't come along very often. I don't see Shane as generational. We don't call Patrice Bergeron generational, either. Doesn't mean he's not a great player," he said.
