Back in 2017, the Hockey News published the list of top 50 players all time for each team (determined by a series of experts). McDavid had only two years under his belt at the time and finished 19th on the Oilers' list; Draisaitl didn't make the top 50. Top 10 were:
1. Gretzky
2. Messier
3. Kurri
4. Coffey
5. Fuhr
6. Anderson
7. Lowe
8. Smyth
9. Tikkanen
10. Weight
So how high would McDavid and Draisaitl be on the list today? I think I would put McDavid easily at no. 3, maybe no. 2. Messier's leadership, longevity and cup wins maybe still has him ahead of Connor, but I think a few more years of excellence could vault McDavid over Messier.
Placing Draisaitl is tougher. I think I would put him at 6, with the ability to climb the list if he stays with team and keeps racking up 100 point seasons.
