I woulda gone kasperitus over zubrus. Zubrus deffinatly has a respectable career but kasperitus had a pretty lengthy career as a tough to play against, mean somewhat dirty dman, impacted the game more for a longer time.
Plus his beatyfull hit on lindross just makes him #1
100%. Zubrus was a good second liner, but Kasparaitis was a top pairing defenseman.
Give me the guy that slots into the starting lineup.
Not even a honorable mention to Hasek compared to Jagr? Smh
Ya that was strange, it’s almost like he forgot about him. An very convincing argument can be made for Hasek over Jagr
@@bigsav1984 no
you cant be perfect, probably a mistake
@@bigsav1984 no. Hasek was a beast, but Jagr was absolutely mental. Arguably in top 5 players to ever play the game. Honourable mention, sure. But no way he was better than Jagr.

Every body from Slovakia surely jumped at Bondra, but disclamer was clear so :)

Brian Leetch is the greatest American hockey player ever. Calder Trophy, 2 Norris Trophies, Gold Medal, Conn Smythe Trophy and Stanley Cup. Averaged over a point per game in the playoffs for his career and has almost as many points as Modano as a DEFENSEMAN which is insane. I would say Kane is really the only person in the running with Leetch as greatest American player goes.
McDavid is a hoax.

Cristobal Huet being like : am I a joke to you ?

When Paul MacLean turned up for France, I was actually thinking of Philippe Bozon, but ultimately, he was much more famous for what he achieved outside of the NHL.
Among others, I remember him playing for German club Adler Mannheim with his fellow countryman Christian Pouget on the line and totally killing it. They won there three DHL titles in a row in the late '90s. :-)

and honorable mention to Mario Lemieux, Canada. 1723 points in just 915 games.
Peter Bondra is from Slovakia
Have you even seen the video? He says there that he goes by the place of birth. Of course Olaf Koelzig is German, and Dany Heatley Canadian, but the point is where they were born.
Peter Bondra from Slovakia
Would you put him above Stastny? No way.
Akim Aliu's biggest contribution is to speak up against hazing and the mentality that allowed it to fester in the sport. He's as courageous as Sheldon Kennedy for speaking out.
This is hands down the best hockey channel
I get you picked Teemu Selanne over Jari Kurri because of the stats. Kurri was a way better two way player than Selanne. I would've picked Kurri.

You claim to be a Red Wings fan and do not mention Fedorov from Russia? :P
@@YzzSC or Igor Larionov. But in all seriousness, it can only be Ovi. It wasn't that long ago, people were saying noone would ever break any of Gretzky's career offense stats. Yet here we are watching Ovi as he gets closer and closer! And I hope he does it!
Picking players based on where they were born and not who they represented is like calling Freddie Mercury a famous Zanzibar singer... Just doesn`t make any sense.
Peter Bondra was born in Ukraine, but he lived the whole of his life in Slovakia.
Jasne že je Slovák
Did you even watch the video? He addresses that right in the beginning.
He fucking said that it's based only on where the guy was born
+ he's lived like since his 25 in Washington and that's more than half of his life if I'm correct
@@michalsemko5572 Yeah, but that alone robbed the Ukraine to have a proper representation in this video, since Bondra is a product of Czechoslovakian/Slovakian ice hockey.
Dom Hasek was the best at his position for 15 years. I get that Jagr played forever but he didn't singlehandedly change the game.
Have you done, “Best players to never play in the NHL.”?
Gotta be some of the guys on the Red Army team, right? I'd go with Vladislav Tretiak.
Tretiak and the great number 17 Kharlamov he’d be up there with Gretzky and Super Mario! Watch him play he used to dance around team Canada!

@Lukáš Hurta i know that. But since Bondra was born in 68, he was born in Ukraine...and the video clearly states that he counts being born in a country as to where they are from.
@@Dixo did you actually watch the video? He said that for the sake of the video, he will count the birthplace as for where the player is from. And since Bondra was born in 68’ in the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic he is the best player ever to come from the country.
Man-alive, I don't know how you put this together.. a massive amount of dedication.. stayed glued to the screen.
I wish you would have mentioned that Ruslan Salei had passed away on the lokamotiv flight years ago.
Along with Pavol Demitra and Brad McCrimmon, two other great former NHLers. Terrible tragedy
I actually did not know he was on of the people that passed away on that flight, thanks for bringing this to my attention
Josef Vasicek as well
2011 was a terrible year
I feel Orr is better than Gretzky, but I can/t prove it, it's just my opinion. Good compilation
If there are any new hockey fans (probably not, but just in case) wondering why Gretzky is the Great One, here's a nutshell stat: He leads all time in goals, he leads all time in assists, and thus obviously he leads all time in points. But though he has the most goals all time, if he had NEVER scored a goal, HE WOULD STILL LEAD ALL TIME IN POINTS.
Rather than just being born in a certain country, I'd rather see any player who actually held that ethnicity. IE... Robyn and Richie Regehr were born in Brazil and Indonesia, respectively....but were actually Canadian.... as were Rod Langway, Craig Adams and Ryan O'Marra. Instead of O"Marra, it should be Yutaka Fukifuji- goalie for LA Kings in 2007.
I completely agree with every pick except for usa, I would have to pick Patrick Kane. he has the second highest points per game from a usa born player behind only pat Lafontaine and he's only 31. Still I thought this was a great video!
Agreed. Patrick Kane has also won a lot more individual hardware than Modano, including the 2 most prestigious individual awards in hockey: The Hart & Conn Smythe
LaFontaine would have been the best American player if his career didn't end early
@@father042 It would have been close between him and Kane. But you're right, LaFontaine was a stud who never gets the love he deserves in these debates. His career overlapped with the primes of Wayne and Mario and was therefore overshadowed.
@@keving4408 He helped Mogilny score 76 goals
@@father042 Hard to argue that when his injuries were hockey related. He got hurt by failing to avoid some big hits and retired early because of it. Had he played smarter, he would have had a longer career.
Before watching - Some of these are obvious. Germany and Slovenia, no competition even. Gretzky obviously for Canada. And Selänne fairly obvious for Finland. The hardest ones are Sweden (very close between Forsberg and Lidström) and Czech republic (Jagr or Hasek).
Sure, Heatley has done more seasons, but Draisaitl already has enough awards to be ahead.
Kurri has nothing on Selänne. His numbers were boosted by playing with Gretzky.
Hasek on the other hand, is probably the best goalie in NHL history. To call it an easy win for Jagr is saying forwards are better than goalies by default. I don't say it's wrong to pick Jagr, but to not even consider the Dominator is.
Dominik hasek greatest and most entertaining.
@@mohammedchowdhury690
Hasek best goalie ever, but Jagr is 3rd in all time points. Hard to say which one to pick, but I lean towards Hasek too.
I 100% agree with Jager as the choice for the Czech Republic but no honorable mention for the greatest goalie to ever live.????? Come on man...
The Dominator should have beaten out 68.
As a Swede I totally agree with N. Lidström. For my neighbour Finland I've always loved Esa Tikkanen!
"BECOMING a diverse league". It's been diverse for decades.
is still made of up mostley white players I say this As an American
Diverse doesn't mean "having just a couple players from outside North America".
For instance, if a company with 30 people employs one Asian guy and 2 women, I wouldn't call them "properly" diverse, I'd call them "filling a quota otherwise you'd pay a fine" diverse.
Same in the NHL, 40 years ago, less than 6% of the players were not from North America. It's up to 30-odd % today. That's diversity.
@@JBTriple8 and basketball is mostly black people. So what?
@@edgymcedgelord5297 My point is it could be better Why Im rooting Quinton Byfield The poster doesnt understand DIVERSITY IS STRENGTH

Mario Lemieux at least deserved an honourable mention for Canada. But no doubt Gretzky is the greatest.
Facts. Lemieux has the 2nd highest PPG of all time
Canada could have multiple lists lol
Peter Bondra is a Slovak no Ukrainian!!!!
Bondra sa narodil na Ukrajine. Ale hlavna vec je ,ze hral za nas :D Ďakujeme mu.
@@hugo545 skoro mi sanka padla, a potom ked dal slovenko tak mi uz aj padla.
I'd have to go with Kasparaitis myself. He was such a beast. Opponents hated playing against him.
Jimmy Jo. I'd have to agree but he was a well hated player all through the league !!
Kasparaitis was hated because he was a dirty player that turtled when confronted and deliberately injured many players. Nobody pays 100$ to watch Kasparaitis illegally kneeing star players.
Just giving it to Jagr without even a mention to the greatest goaltender of all time? How is Hasek not even talked about?
i think he should have been mentioned too, but jagr was the clear choice cmon
It harder at the very high end to compare but I would go Hasek no one could shut down like him
Greatest goaltender of all-time, Tretiak, is from Russia not Czechia.
Gretzky, 2857 points in 1487 games. 92 goals in 81-82 season. Who can beat that.
i feel so betrayed by putting peter bondra to ukraine. literally a guy who scored a game winning goal in WC 2002 final against russia for slovakia
He litteraly said at the beginning that this is based just on where the guy was born not who did he represent eg. Heatley, Georgiev...
@@michalsemko5572 i did not say he is wrong
It’s funny how there have been SO many AMAZING players from Russia, yet there’s absolutely ZERO discussion at all about Ovi. He’s clearly the #1.
Malkin, Fedorov and Bure are/were better.
Tretiak is the greatest goaltender of all time. Even Ken Dryden would agree. If you would pick 1 goalie, it would be Tretiak. If you would pick a forward, would you pick Ovechkin, Datsyuk, or Malkin? To say nothing of players from previous generations? Ovechkin isnt even the clear #1 in his position.
@@humankirk9196 Ovechkin is the best goal-scorer in the history of the NHL. What the fuck are YOU talking about?
Trets is def best Russian goalie. Dats is my personal favourite player of all time (not just Russian). But Ovi is the obvious and correct choice for this particular video.
@@subraxas ovi might break gretzkys goals recordx having played in the 2010s. He clearly deserves #1 russian
Peter Bondra was born in Ukraine, but he is from Slovakia, he grew up in Slovakia, he played for Slovakia, he WINS THE F*CKING WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP IN 2002 WITH SLOVAKIA WTF HE'S NOT FROM UKRAINE. And Stan Mikita was born in Slovakia, but he never played for us😂 Never mind❤
Same with Komarov, this bloke says he is Estonian but Estonia didnt exist when he was born. He is a Finn who was born in USSR
did u even listen to the disclaimer
I think if you have Modano over Kane still then the argument for someone like Federov over Ovi can be made. Kane and Ovi will for sure be the best when their careers are over though. Great video man!
Nah ovi is already greater than Federov I don’t see an argument there lol
@@ben_cross21 Playing Devil’s advocate here: I think you can make the argument solely based on all-around ability. Fedorov was a solid defensive player, and Scotty Bowman even said he’d probably win couple of Norris Trophies if he started him at the blue line every game. Ovi has the stigma of just offensive talent. Please don’t misinterpret anything here because I am a huge fan of both players haha
@@jackson2083but now are we not talking about ability or skills or what could have.
Ovechkin is a bigger star and has have a greater career than Fedorov, period
Heatley had 50 more points in his first 6 seasons compared to Draisaitl's (he's played 6 so far). Would anyone at the time have expected Heatley to drop off as hard as did? Drai could do the same, I wouldn't say it's 1000% gonna be Leon in 5-6 seasons. I do think it's still a good bet though, since Drai started his NHL career a couple years younger and thus has points than Heatley did as his age, but less than 1000% lol
This is a good point 😅
Heatley isnt actually German anyways
Bro, no offence, but you must be pretty young if you think Zubrus was a better NHLer than Darius Kasparaitis. You obviously never watched much of them actually playing, and you’re looking at stats. Kasparaitis was legit one of the best shutdown defencemen of his era. He was fearless, ruthless, and a major body-checker, despite being only 5’11”. No joke, he was a smaller version of Scott Stevens.
I remember there being a player from Ireland who played for the Oilers for a bit, as well, didn't Japan have that backup goalie who played for LA for a bit?
Not sure if you've done one but what about best from every US state ? Keep up the good work bro
Yeah I agree with Jagr but u should mentioned Hasek who's one of the goalies that come to your mind when someone says who's the best NHL goalie of all time
I agree with you! To be honest you could argue who is better, Jagr or Hašek as they are legends of their own position.

Slovakia - Peter Stastny
Germany - Leon Draisaitl
There was more than one of such a case.. but he said it at the beginning, it is not who you represent but where you have been born. Peter Bondra could be as well the best player for Slovakia.
Though Stan Mikita was born in Slovakia, at a young age, he was sent to St. Catherines, Ontario to live with his aunt and uncle so as not to live under the Communist regime. He was a product of the Canadian system. Peter Stastny is a product of the Czecheslovkian system;the Czech Republic and Slovakia were forcibly merged into a single entity.
I lost my patience after ad number 6.
In Czech republic is about Jagr vs. Hasek..
Khudobin for Kazakhstan. He showed what he could do
Over Nabokov? Are you kidding me?
True but if u watched Nabokov played u would be very wrong
Leo Komarov is from Finland
Good video! I think with Slovakia you should have at least talked about Zdeno Chara instead of Hossa. Anyway good job!
Also, Dobby is a Kazakhstan-born player (from Ust-Kamenogorsk, just like Nabokov)
Darius Kasparaitis was known as a really tough and fearsome player back then, his hard hits rivaled Scott Stevens
Kaspar was a dominant figure... but alot of his hits were dirty even under the rules of his time... lot of knee-to-knee business... which at that time was considered the dirtiest thing you could do to a guy
Whaaaatttt??!!!! PETER BONDRA is a SLOVAK player - SLOVAKIA not Ukriene
born in Ukraine, watch the video
Huge Jagr fan, but you can't say no one comes close...unless you aren't familiar with Dominic Hasek
How do you pick Zubrus over Kasparitis? The man was feared and played against top lines, not to mention his international success
It feels weird not having Peter Bondra under Slovakian flag
He's my favorite player of all time
Exactly. His father was Slovak, he just moved to Ukraine where he met his wife, who was actually Polish. Peter was three years old when they moved back to Slovakia. He grew up and learned to play hockey in Slovakia. He had Ukrainian nationality just because his parents didn't want him to undergo 2-year mandatory military training. He chagned his nationality to Slovak in 1993. He reprezented Slovakia and shot the game winning g oal in world championship final against Russia in 2002, when Slovakia became world champions. Peter Bondra is Slovak and I wouldn't consider him Ukrainian in any way.
@@adamtoth180 did you fucking watch the video he litteraly said its based just on where the guy was born everyone else got it. Nobody complaining about heatley being German or something like that
You all are forgetting Peter Stastny.
Bondra is what? Yes he was born in Ukrajina but he played whole life for Slovakia like cmon man
Kane has already surpassed Modano.
Brian Leetch should be ahead of both of them IMO but thats just me
@ELIJAH PEDERSON Kane is better than Modano in every single stat you look at except points which, lets face it, is a matter of time/longevity rather than player quality. Eichel and Matthews might be gunning for Modanos' spot if their careers go well.
Just cos you're born in a country doesnt mean you even have the citizenship of said country so I'd prefer to go by "first" citizenship or whoever they represent internationally in case its different. Though in most of the cases its not gonna be different from where you were born.
ALTHOUGH this way we get way more countries so I kinda half wanna retract my nitpicking but eh
sweden! Peter forsberg!!!!
Actually Leo Komarov is Finnish (although his parents were Russian) he was raised in Finland.
Malkin deserved a honorable mention. 3 cups multiple awards and if it wasn’t for all injuries he’d be even better
So did Fedorov and he was way better than Malkin
@HOCKEY HELL YA ya I guess but I’d choose Fedorov by a mile
A lot of guys deserved an HM, but for the countries like Sweden, USA, Russia and Canada I didn’t give any just because there is sooo many
@HOCKEY HELL YA Fedorov also played in the 90s and Won two Selkes
1. Cups don’t mean much for solely comparing individuals. I think it’s important that star players get at least one to their name but after that it’s not too much of a difference. Cups are more of a team thing. 2. Ovi has even more awards than Malkin does.
Both are great but I think between the two it’s definitely Ovechkin. Fedorov and Malkin are solid runner ups
Bobby Orr was by all , the best professional player . Orr was a defenseman , but also a two way player . He was the highest scoring defenseman , and controlled the play any time he was on ice . He had no one to protect him , as some other players had . The opposition went after him , ruining his knees in order to stop him . Orr played as well with a bad knee as many did with healthy knees
Gretzky is the greatest of all time, that debate is long over and done with. If you still would lead in all time points with only counting your assists and winning 5 cups in that competivness era, you are the greatest player of all time protected or not, period.
And i think Phil Esposito protected Bobby Orr alot aswell to be honest
Hasek at least deserves an honorable mention for Czech Republic. Probably the greatest goalie of all time
Canadas top 10 players of all time would beat or at least compete with all other countries single best with the possible exception of Russia and Sweden. Honorable mention to Jagr though.
lol you really butchered Czerkawski's name
You could have mentioned Wojtek Wolski too
I watched some videos of commentators saying his name, I guess I watched the wrong ones lol
Seriously how the hell does CHIA make the sound TSHAY? What the hell? It's almost insulting, how wrong it is. How do they not care to pronounce the name even remotely right? The HOME fuckin team's player. I just can't fathom.
Awesome video man!!!!!
Back again with the good content.
Finally, have been waiting since yesterday :D
Creative idea! I could tell why it took so long to edit!
Very fast phased and smooth, sub!
For the life of me I'll never understand why the "best defencemen ever" just means the highest scoring.
What stat would best represent it? +/-? Agreed that goals isn’t a good stat for it but don’t know what else it’d be
A defenceman who can score always gets accolades, even if they kinda suck at actually defending. I'm a Leafs guy and Reilly drives me nuts with his shit coverage. Give me a great defender who has decent O and also has some nasty in his game. Pronger and Stevens are my favs.
Awesome video!👍👊😀
