Not McDavid, Crosby, Ovi, Matthews, Eichel, etc all within a 10 year span. Effectively contradicts the meaning of the word. Maybe players and training are just better now, but you have have multiple "best of the generations" at once.

Its a useless clickbait term now that TSN throws around like candy to hype up their own draft programming
Then it becomes a time-based definition rather than skill-based which is I think how most people use it.
