American born – Mike Modano
Canadian born – Sidney Crosby
Euro – Alexander Ovechkin
Insane that these two guys were drafted so closely.

I’m coming at this as searching for a guy who I would feel comfortable in any situation, who could defend himself and his teammates at the drop of a hat and who stayed relatively healthy and played mostly clean. This does not mean most talented.
The contenders:
– Mike Modano, 1988
– Mats Sundin, 1989
– Joe Thornton, 1997
– Marc-Andre Fleury, 2003
– Alex Ovechkin, 2004
– Steven Stamkos, 2008
– John Tavares, 2009
– Nathan McKinnon, 2013
If I had to pick…I’d have to flip a coin between Modano and Thornton

Alexandre Daigle. So many cups I can’t even remember him. What a stud

Mario – arguably the most talented player ever, won two cups
OV – you can’t argue with 800 goals, won a Cup

It’s Mario.
Ovechkin and Crosby are probably 2-3. I’d say there’s a decent gap in between them and Mario though. Mcdavid could make a good push at it though, he’s the only one out there right now that could unseat 66, even if Ovy breaks the goals record.
