    Just askin' here. Are you guys OK with Panarin being classified as a "rookie"? Isn't it high time we drop the "NHL is the only real pro league in the world" thing and admitted that Panarin is no rookie? The KHL really is a 'pro' hockey league? I can accept that maybe it's just old me, but I think Larkin (or possibly even McDavid) are getting 'screwed'. How about you guys?

    @radoran I hear you. I can still clearly recall the awful arguments and name-calling that went on when this issue came up originally. Maybe we should leave a sleeping dog lie?

    I'm just agreeing with what Scott said. He was already an established pro, not a true rookie. IMHO that's why he has the 'record'. I'm also saying I agree that using whatever the NHL's 'criteria' was, Gretzky should have won in his rookie year as Scott also said. Typical NHL.

    To be fair Selanne was not a rookie per se. He was an NHL rookie, yes, but a 'rookie'? No. If you take him out of the picture (the NHL should have done that back then), who is next?

    This team has to stop the Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde thing. They have zero talent and if they don't play hard every game and every shift they will get their head handed to them.

    Great piece, Prof. As a Leafs fan I am glad to see them getting their due. I also point out that they made the biggest move of all the teams, and in the correct direction. Carey price is back and I bet next month will find the Habs on the top (bottom) of this list. The biggest surprise so far, to me, is the Buffalo Sabres. I was sure they'd finish dead last this year but it doesn't look that way at the moment..

    Actually, I saw lots of other rankings that I didn't agree with, BUT, I like this idea. It gives some very good talking points.

    How the NHL landscape has changed over the years. Leafs have no scoring at all. But, Habs #1? Seriously? And I think you should flip #6 and #7. Parity = mediocrity = boring.... NHL = No Hitting League. We need a juggernaut to make things interesting.....

    One of my all-time favourite teams to watch. As much of a Leafs fan as I was then (and still am), I really enjoyed watching these guys play. That was hockey! Led by Bernie Parent and Bob Clarke. Sorry to see those days go.....
