Anton Lundell is a Handzus type of player? He has 2 cups.

If you look at the best forward of the cup winning teams since the cap was introduced.

Elite offensive C:

Crosby x 3
Getzlaf x 1
Staal x 1

2-Way C:
Toews x 3
Barkov x 2
Kopitar x 2
Bergeron x 1
O'Rielly x 1
Datsyuk x 1
Eichel x 1

Star offensive W:
Kucherov x 2
Ovechkin x 1

Kane and Zetterberg are the only forwards that could be labelled the best on their teams. Zetterberg is also a Selke type winger.

I'm not sure why people think we need stars, and those stars have to be 100+ point guys. 200-foot 2-way players win more cups.

Crosby in his last 2 cups played more of a 200-foot game and gave up numbers to play a well-rounded game.
